Counselling
Counselling
I offer counselling services to anyone, anywhere who is motivated to change. I will be an honest guide who listens well, asks great questions to stimulate your thinking and help to shift your perspective. My goal is to move you from being stuck or barely coping to making profound shifts that can lead to healing, restored focus and a preferred future.
I'm aware that we all have to 'choose our hard'. I get it, change is hard right now, but not changing is never going to bring you the happiness you want for your tomorrows. Let's start your journey towards change together today.
The Value of Counselling
Finding the courage to seek counselling can be a pivotal step towards self-discovery and emotional wellbeing.
I specialise in crafting personalised support to navigate life's hurdles for all people.
Grounded in empathy and achievable strategies, my aim is to foster a space where you can explore your feelings, unravel complexities, and embrace change.
Let's embark on this journey together, towards a future where you feel empowered and understood.
Counselling Therapies
I utilise a variety of psychology therapies in my sessions to best suit your needs and context.
After our initial session, I will determine which methods are appropriate for you and your circumstance.
All therapies include spending time discussing how challenging situations, emotions, and behaviours affect your life. The therapies are tailored to help you move to a preferred future.

Narrative Therapy - Your Stories
Narrative therapy empowers you to take control of your life story and promote your agency and resilience.
Together, we will focus on understanding and reshaping the stories of your life and the meaning you assign to them.
I will help you separate the issue or problem from yourself.
We will work together to question and deconstruct the dominant, problem-saturated narratives that may be affecting your well-being. By doing this, we can uncover alternative perspectives, creating new stories to emphasise your strengths, values and aspirations.
Strengths-Based Therapy - Your Strengths
Strengths-Based Therapy explores and celebrates your unique strengths, abilities, and resources to promote personal growth, resilience, and well-being.
Together, we will explore what's right with you.
I will harness all the positive possibilities you have available: personal qualities. skills, relationships, and life experiences to help you address the challenges and improve quality of life.
My aim is to empower you to take an active role in your therapy and life.
Recognising your strengths can boost your confidence and your ability to overcome difficulties.
You and I will set specific and achievable goals that align with your values and aspirations. These goals provide direction and motivation for your therapy journey.
Solution-Focused Therapy - Your Future
Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) is a practical therapeutic approach that focuses on identifying and implementing solutions to current challenges and goals.
I will collaborate with you to discover your capacity to find solutions.
You are the expert in your own life. Taking small realistic steps toward change will empower you with optimism and self-confidence.
Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) - Your Learning for Life
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) is a structured, evidence-based approach that provides you with the skills and tools to understand and manage your thoughts, emotions and behaviours effectively.
Together, we will collaborate and design appropriate practical techniques to help you achieve your therapeutic goals, improve your emotional well-being and develop lasting skills for managing life's challenges.
What to Expect
Here's what you can expect when you engage my counselling services.
Telehealth or Online Consultations
All of my sessions are held via phone calls or through an online video platform.
Holding our sessions in this way means that we can talk in a safe space, explore, and start making the life changes you want, all from the comfort of where you are.
We will discuss which format works best for you.
Fee Structure
Understanding C-Change's service value is essential. I aim for clear, upfront fee information.
This fee covers not only our session time but also the preparation and follow-up required as part of my services.
My session fees are as follows:
Consultation Fee: $110 per session
Discounted Concession Fee: $88 per session
Privacy
Your privacy and confidentiality are held in the highest regard. Recognising the importance of maintaining a secure and private environment for our discussions, I go to great lengths to ensure that all communication channels are protected with the latest security measures.
This includes encrypted video calls and secure phone lines, ensuring that your personal information and the content of our conversations remain confidential. With these precautions in place, you can feel comfortable and secure, knowing that your sessions are a private space where you can speak openly and honestly.
It's all part of creating a trusting and safe environment where you can focus on your growth and healing.
We are not defined by our mistakes, but by the strength and growth we gain from them.
