You might be here because you're looking for relief — from the weight of what happened or went unmet in the past, the pull of old patterns, or a relationship that keeps hitting the same wall. Perhaps you feel at the mercy of your own emotions, exhausted by cycles you can't seem to break, and feeling out of touch with yourself and others. Maybe it's a relentless feeling of perfectionism or of being worn down by hypervigilance and worry about what's going to happen next. I'm Kelly, and I work with individuals and LGBTQIA+ couples navigating relationship challenges, trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, and many other human experiences.

Jules Piccinin
Psychotherapist, PACFA
Serves Area
I offer a supportive space where you can show up as you are. I work with anyone, but especially with men, adolescents, and young adults who may find it hard to talk openly about emotions, stress, or past experiences. I work at a pace that feels right for you, with a strong focus on safety, trust, and choice. If you’ve gained insight into your struggles but still feel stuck, or feel disconnected from your body, emotions, or relationships, I offer an embodied and relational way forward. My work is grounded in Gestalt therapy and focuses on what’s happening in the here and now — in your thoughts, feelings, body, and relationships.

Life might look full, and on paper it might even look good, but something feels missing. You may feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or caught in patterns that keep repeating. Often, the women I work with are capable, self-aware and used to holding everything together. But they’re asking, in one way or another, “Who am I?” and “how do I want to be in the world?” They’re looking for a space to explore what is actually true for them, and to reconnect with the parts of themselves that have gone quiet beneath years of adapting, coping and surviving.

Somatic Psychotherapy with Laura Emilia
Psychotherapist, MA, PACFA
Serves Area
I work with people who are thoughtful, reflective, and ready to actively engage in therapy. Many of my clients are functioning well on the outside yet feel anxious, burnt out, stuck, or caught in repeating relational patterns. They’re not looking for quick fixes, but for a deeper understanding of how their nervous system shapes their emotions, body, and relationships. Through somatic psychotherapy, we work at a steady and supportive pace to build regulation, capacity, and trust in yourself. Over time, clients often feel more grounded, less reactive, and more able to meet life and relationships with clarity, choice, and ease.

I come to this work with a deep interest in story, meaning, spirituality, and the complexities of belonging.
Many people come to counselling feeling stuck inside a story about themselves or their lives that has become heavy or limiting. Perhaps a problem has begun to define how you see yourself, your relationships, or your sense of direction. When this happens it can feel as though the problem has taken up too much space in your life. Counselling can offer a place to step back, reflect, and begin to see the fuller picture of who you are and what matters to you.

Alongside my Counselling and Psychotherapy degree, I have a qualifications in psychology, education, research and spirituality, have trained as a yoga and meditation instructor and bring creative insights through music and poetry.
Something's not right- you're drowning, lost, afraid, carrying something too heavy to hold alone. Or maybe it's a quieter disconnection - numbness, feeling like you're just going through the motions. You might not even have words for it, you just know that things can't keep going this way. Or maybe you're reaching out for someone you love — a partner, son, daughter, friend — and you see them struggling but don't know how to help. Whether you're trying to make sense of what's happened/happening, stuck in patterns that aren't working, searching for meaning and purpose, or simply need a space to release what's being carried, I'm here.

Spirituality Therapists
What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.

What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviours. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.

Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.

How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
​​Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
