I strongly believe that every person has a purpose and set of skills/strengths they bring into this world; however, that sometimes inconvenient/negative circumstances or unhealthy relationships can derail this potential by planting a seed of self-doubt into our minds. Regardless of where it applies to an individual's life (e.g. marriage, career, etc.), it would be my privilege to help clients along the way to achieving their life goals/vision by helping them identify and deal with any stumbling blocks in their way. Life loves to throw curveballs (it wouldn't be interesting if it didn't), but I'd love to prepare my clients for them!

With that comes anxiety, self-doubt, disconnection in relationships & wobbly self-esteem.
I'm passionate about empowering people like you to have more connection with yourself and in your relationships. And I do that by combining the best of coaching & therapy. If you're looking for someone who can 'fix your problems' I'm not that person. But if you want someone who can support you to find your own answers you're in the right place.

Counsellor, MA, ACA-L2

Being human can be complicated. We carry old stories, grief, family patterns, cultural expectations, relationship wounds, anxiety and the pressure to keep going, often without realising how deeply these experiences shape the way we think, feel and relate to ourselves and others. I work with individuals and couples who want to understand themselves beyond surface-level coping. Therapy with me is a space to make sense of what feels tangled, put language to experiences that have felt difficult to explain and create relationships and ways of living that feel more honest, connected and sustainable.

Relationships difficult? Feeling lonely or lost? Tired of feeling less than? You need compassion and understanding, not another set of instructions that work for others.

Mel Williamson I EMDR for Anxiety and Trauma
Social Worker, MA, AMHSW
Serves Area
I focus on anxiety, trauma and self-esteem.
I work with adults affected by trauma, stress, and overwhelming life experiences, using EMDR therapy as my primary approach. You may be living with the after-effects of childhood trauma, emotionally abusive relationships, or past events that still feel unresolved. Even if life looks “fine” on the outside, you might feel constantly on edge, not good enough, or stuck in patterns you can’t break. Trauma can leave you feeling unsafe in your own body, weighed down by shame, or disconnected from who you want to be. I focus on treating anxiety, PTSD, depression and help with difficult life events and grief and loss.

You are here because you feel like you (or someone you know) may need therapy and are reading through profiles of strangers, scrolling through their videos and photos. It's a pretty common part of being on the internet nowadays, along with scrolling through memes and videos of food and cats. You may be looking for connection. Someone who speaks to you and may get you and your life story. I know what’s like, because I’ve been on that side of the screen going through that same process. Today may not be the day you choose to call or email, but you are scoping what’s there and most of it may sound pretty similar profile to profile.

The first step is often the hardest... Find clarity in what you want, be able to express yourself, feel motivated, and explore what positive relationships look like. Have fears, hesitations, confusion and the past been holding you back from contentment in life, career or relationships? Be in the present moment and become more aware of your thoughts. This provides immense relief from fear-based thoughts and gives you clarity, as the mental clutter shifts. This is helpful for all areas of life - career, purpose, relationships, stress, anxiety and so on. Available in ANY location Australia wide via video call.
