Seeing a Counsellor is proactive... often my clients question why they waited so long to address their concerns  when they found that counselling can bring effective relief from their concerns and  facilitate measurable personal or professional growth

Stress, trauma, mental health, family, work, relationships

Clinical Supervision Sessions

I am an experienced and Accredited PACFA Supervisor. Please feel free to book an initial session to discuss your clinical supervision needs for Counselling, Chaplaincy, Social Work or other people helping and health. Nursing is now considering external supervision needs of its professional. I also find that workers in  leadership or management roles may find this appointment a safe and confidential place to discuss the challenges of their role where they can pursue personal and professional growth. Consultant external supervision can also help ameliorate the impact of  burnout and stress. Sessions are usually scheduled monthly. Cost: $110

Relationship Counselling Session

I use a couples counselling approach based on Gottman Couple Therapy,  and my experience as a family therapy educator. Couple therapy involves an initial couple appointment, supportive individual assessment appointments and then ongoing couple appointments. You can schedule marriage preparation appointments too. Please allow for 90 minute sessions. Cost: $150 Private Health Insurance  Rebates may apply

Individual Counselling Sessions

This service is a favorite among many of my clients, as it is often one of the keys to a happier, healthier more secure life. My role is to give you the tools and techniques to achieve a workable and fulfilling lifestyle. After several sessions, you can  become well-versed at handling issues. Some clients choose to see me instead of activating a formal mental health plan. Call now to schedule a 60 minute session. Cost: $100 No Medicare rebate but BUPA Extras, Medibank, Police Health and Emergency Services Private Health rebates apply

Are you an employer looking for an external group supervisor to provide skilled and qualified support and debriefing for your staff who work with people at the coalface of trauma?  Skilled and supportive group supervision by an external qualified supervisor can provide a place for recovery and growth for staff.
