Why Counselling?
Our therapists help encourage resilience and foster the growth and recovery of individual’s to improve their quality of life. Our counsellors implement a range of appropriate strategies to encourage wellness for all. Our sessions allow each individual the opportunity to share anything they feel they need to discuss and understand better.
We provide understanding and compassion at a time of need, while building skills to assist in becoming self-aware and fostering self-growth. We assist children to express themselves in a healthy and productive way that can alleviate any restrictive emotional states such as anxiety, stress and depression. These states impact our thoughts, feelings, energy and behaviour, and can restrict our abilities to express our needs to others.
How we Help
Person Centered Therapy
Client driven so that they are able to discuss what is happening for them. To share what it is that they want to or need to share. With this approach we are working towards a state on congruence. This first comes from the therapist but transitions to the client’s life.
You can find more information regarding this approach on Counselling Directory.
Expressive Therapies
Sand Tray
Is an expressive therapies-based intervention style that helps people to process hard to talk about topics or to express themselves when they are unable to do so through words. By incorporating symbols, it allows for the patterns, objects and the movement of the sand to do the talking.
You can find more information regarding this approach on Good Therapy.
What to Expect
Our aim is to provide each client and their family with a positive and collaborative experience engaging with our service.

Groups and Programs
Group Programs are a great way to work on a specific set of skills in a social setting with peers of a similar age and skill level.
Groups are allocated based on need. NDIS funded and diagnosed children with developmental or behavioural challenges are in small groups. Private clients, with specific concerns or challenges who participate positively in a mainstream classroom are in larger groups.
Some popular Counsellor-developed groups include:
- Mindful Magic
- The Commanders (Functional Communication Program)
- The M.E.N.D Program (Parent Self Care Training)
- The Esteem Team
