Counselling in Creswick, VIC

Do you feel overwhelmed or are you finding it difficult to cope? Part of being human and living life, means that there are times when we need extra support, but it isn't always easy to reach out. Other times it's hard to reach out because we've experienced things so painful and traumatic that it feels like you will never be understood. This often leaves us feeling unworthy, not good enough and unsafe and burdened with a pain that can never be shared.

I have extensive experience working with trans, gender diverse and non-binary people. I support those exploring their gender identity, as well as helping with social and medical transition. I have helped many individuals come out to family and friends, and I work with partners and parents of trans and gender diverse individuals. In addition, I also work with those who have suffered a significant loss in their lives, who may be grieving the loss of a partner, child, parent or close relative due to illness, accident or suicide. I strive to provide a safe space for you to explore your feelings and find the support you need.

I am passionate about supporting individuals to overcome challenges by developing personal insight, strategies and tools so they can move forward with positive change in their lives. I meet clients where they are without judgement, with a client centred and trauma-informed approach. My sessions often incorperate natural elements and ecotherapy to re-align, find balance and connection in life. I also use a narrative approach and ACT (acceptance commitment therapy) in my sessions.

I am passionate about journeying with people at all ages and stages of their lives, to increase their capacity and create change in themselves and to find joy and growth in their lives. I work from a trauma informed viewpoint, that incorporates family, to ensure person-centred, relationship-focussed therapy. I have also undergone additional training in Havening. I am also comfortable working with personal spirituality and understands the significance and role of spirituality within lives.
