Counselling in Cheltenham, VIC
I use an active approach to Counselling which I think can benefit people who are shy or nervous about Counselling as I come to you. Lets meet where you feel comfortable. Walking makes your body feel good, you receive natural endorphins and you are not looking across at each other but walking side by side. Struggling with Behavioural Issues, ADHD, ASD? How do we expect them to sit quietly in a chair and talk about their feelings and learn coping strategies? Lets make it easier and take as many barriers to accessing support as we can.

Life leaves you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and sometimes alone. You want to make changes but don't know where to start. You struggle to find joy in activities that once brought you happiness. This is not the life you imagined and you wonder if these issues stem from your childhood experiences?
You’re not alone. Many people find themselves caught in a cycle where their past impacts their daily lives. Often, the roots of these feelings trace back to our childhoods, where patterns and beliefs about ourselves were formed.

All people of all ages can experience difficult times in their life. These may have been caused by an event that has caused distress, issues with family, friendships, relationships, the work place, health issues and countless other situations. Sometimes events have happened long ago and continue to trouble us and impact our life, or the situation may be more recent. It can be difficult to share what is happening. Often we don't want to burden or worry those who care for us; or we may feel uncomfortable talking to people we know. Counselling provides support toward finding resolutions and living life in the best way possible.

As a Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor I have experience working with many common issues and concerns (such as relationship conflict, grief and loss, work stress) as well as serious mental health difficulties (such as Depression, Anxiety, Self Harm and Suicidal Ideation). My particular areas of expertise are in the treatment of Complex Trauma, Childhood Sexual Abuse and Problem Gambling. I have spent the past 15 years developing specialist knowledge and skills in connecting with clients who have found it difficult to connect with a therapist in the past to get the assistance they need.

At the heart of my practice is a deep belief that every individual has the innate capacity for growth, healing, and transformation. As a clinical psychologist, I consider it an honour to walk alongside you on your journey towards greater well-being and self-discovery. My approach is grounded in evidence-based therapies, tailored to your specific needs and goals. However, I believe that true transformation extends beyond techniques and theories. It requires a genuine commitment to self-exploration, a willingness to embrace discomfort, and a readiness to actively participate in the process of change.
