I am a board approved supervisor, with experience providing supervision to both experienced psychologists as well as clinical registrars. My focus is on creating a supportive and accepting environment so psychologists can safely address weaknesses and ask difficult questions in their supervision.

I am a multi-modal counsellor, drawing on knowledge from various approaches to help reduce client psychological distress and enhance well-being. I work collaboratively with clients to determine the approach that best suits their needs. I believe the client-counsellor relationship is key to a client’s therapeutic growth and offer a confidential, non-judgmental, safe space for clients to explore their difficulties in-depth and begin to increase their self-awareness to enable change and personal growth. I offer professional and confidential counselling services for individuals, families and couples.

Hi there, I’m Madeline. I am an accredited mental health social worker at Sit with Self Counselling, living in Melbourne with my partner and baby. What the heck does Sit with Self mean? I’m so glad you asked. Connecting with your authentic, compassionate and curious Self is at the centre of my therapeutic practice, and is where the name Sit with Self comes from. I hold the firm belief that all people have access to this Self (yes, even you!) when given the space, time and support to venture inward.

Living through a pandemic added additional pressures for many people who were already experiencing hardships. I felt it too. I can assist clients to gain clarity in choices and decisions they make and to reduce the haziness of brain fog many are experiencing. Connecting with clients is an essential component of counselling, taking an empathetic approach where I can see things from a clients perspective helps to develop the connection we will share together. Sometimes no matter how hard some of us try, we can no longer manage alone, we need to reach out and seek professional support. I can support you through your challenges.

Feeling better is great, but I love to empower people with skills, strategies, and mechanisms to DO better. Strategic Psychotherapy is about effecting measurable change and progress. Talking about things and debriefing is great and comforting, however progress is what really counts.

Sometimes in our lives we experience low self esteem, tricky situations, or feel that we are at a cross roads. We can experience difficulties in the relationships we value most. Counselling helps provide a space for you to explore those issues that are troubling you. We can consider ideas and strategies to give you greater clarity about what it is you want; and help you find the pathway forward. I work across age groups and look forward to supporting you achieve your goals.

Hi! I’m Lou. I’m a consent, respectful relationships and sexuality educator empowering young people and their carers to make informed choices about their bodies and personal relationships. One of my greatest passions is facilitating those lightbulb moments for young people when they realise “Oh, I can say ‘no’, and I don’t have to feel guilty about it!”
