Counselling

Today, paying attention to our mental health is very important, alongside our efforts to keep physically healthy and to visit a doctor if we are sick.

Everyone needs help sometime

Anyone can experience mental or physical health issues at any time and mental illness does not discriminate. People respond to their experiences and the world around them in different ways.  For example, some of us can become anxious or depressed when they think about the big changes in the world such as the summer bushfires, Covid-19, global warming and the poor economic outlook.  For some of us, things closer to home can cause worry and stress, such as the loss of a family member, divorce, loss of a job, sitting for an exam or worry about how to feed children and put a roof over their heads.

We are here to help

We can help you if you are experiencing challenges in your life such as:

  • anxiety
  • depression
  • boredom
  • stress
  • relationship issues
  • career issues
  • loneliness
  • unemployment

While some people may think that seeking help from a psychologist or social worker was a sign of weakness, this is now changing.  It is clear that keeping our minds healthy and seeking help when we experience issues is important for us and our families and the broader community. 

How we can help

We work with anyone who needs our help. We are especially skilled in helping people who come from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.

We choose from a range of techniques to help you deal with your challenges. Examples of techniques we use include the following:

RelaxationPositive psychology
Stress managementHypnosis
MindfulnessHumanistic counselling psychotherapy
Cognitive behaviour therapy
