When you're going through the hard times, having someone in your corner who has ideas for us, where we can improve our life, overcome our troubles and feel we are getting somewhere, this can make a big difference. Whether you're facing some big issues in your life, or wanting more out of Life, or to grow, heal from the past, I can support you.

I am an EMDR Therapist/Accredited Practitioner and work with children and adults that have experienced trauma in their lives. Trauma can leave us feeling stuck, reliving the trauma, or just numb to life. It can make relationships, school or home life difficult. EMDR can help you feel more like your true self, regaining a sense of energy and optimism that life can be better.

Is your child or young person experiencing struggles? Do they worry, have trouble with friendships, or maybe they are upset, angry or avoid people? Have they experienced something traumatic or had a past where they were hurt or abused? I have many year's experience working with children, teens and their parents, including where experiences of trauma may have affected their ability to experience safe, joyful relating together. I provide a comfortable and safe space where play, art and music as well as talking are used to help young people connect to their feelings and work through their difficulties.

I’m Alisoun, a Creative Arts and Somatic Therapist in Melbourne.

I have a Masters in Therapeutic Arts Practice and am in my final year of training in Somatic Experiencing (c).

It is our human need to make sense of our experience but offten, people can feel significant isolation in not being seen, not being heard and understood. There is still a significant stigma in help seeking and what people will receive from me is validation, support, an opportunity to consider strategies or goals that can assist you in managing your experiences in a non shaming space. You will leave counselling with a stronger sense of yourself and your own strength and capacities to support yourself and continue to increase a positive sense of meaning in your life. You are the expert in yourr life.

Looking for a safe space to unpack and reflect? Welcome to Mangrove Counselling Co. With a masters degree in Counselling and a background in Psychology, I have worked in the field of mental health for over 10 years, most recently working as a trauma counsellor in the community sector. I work with adolescents and adults who have experienced trauma, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and childhood abuse & neglect. I am also happy to offer a space to individuals navigating through neurodivergence, questioning their gender identity or those wanting to explore and rediscover their authentic selves after a loss or big life transition.

Hello, my name is Helen and I have extensive experience working with adults who are living with the impact of trauma, as well as those struggling with the stressors of daily life in the modern world.

A registered member of the AASW, I have a wealth of personal and professional experience specialising in parenting, adult neurodiversity and navigating systems. My neuro-affirming practices and services aim to create an environment that is supportive, accepting, and accommodating of people with various neurological conditions, such as Autism, ADHD, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). With my expertise, you can expect tailored care that empowers you to achieve your best in life.

Hello, my name is Larissa and I am a qualified Mental Health Specialist offering Equine Assisted Psychotherapy & Counselling in the South Gippsland Area. My main goal is to provide a safe, non-judgemental space within which my clients can explore what is important to them with co-facilitation by my beautiful herd of 12 horses and ponies. My connection with my beautiful herd of horses flows on to the clients I work with. They support me, to help you. I help children, adolescents, teens and adults realise their full potential, however that shows up. Visit www.stableandnook.com.au for more.

My work in therapy includes experience in a range of emotional and psychological issues including depression, anxiety disorders (OCD, panic & generalised anxiety), trauma and PTSD (including complex trauma of historical sexual abuse and childhood trauma), relationship issues and personality disorders (such as BPD); as well as addiction problems (e.g. substance abuse, gambling, and pornography). Whilst these are all complex issues, I have also seen many people who are needing assistance with wanting to focus on living a better life, and working on strategies to improve and grow as a person or build their self esteem.

If you are an adult, wanting meaningful help to alleviate suffering, be it from longstanding depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, relationship problems or work issues, please feel free to reach out. Perhaps you have tried therapy in the past, and found that, while helpful at the time, it didn't facilitate long term change or get to the heart of the matter.
