THE COUNSELLING ROOM
WARM, COMPASSIONATE, EFFECTIVE COUNSELLING & psychotherapy
IN A SAFE, CONFIDENTIAL, QUIET SPACE
The Counselling Room is for people who are looking for a warm, compassionate, collaborative psychotherapist.
I am 'real', down to earth, professional, and skilled. My ideal is to have my clients feel safe, valued, and genuinely heard. I will always deeply honour your story, and we will set treatment goals which reflect what you wish to see happen with your life.
I have a deep belief that most people are where they for very good reasons- no one gets up in the morning with the aim to stuff up their life. So, in our work together, we will find ways of making meaning of where you are in your journey, and we will find ways of helping you to move forward.
The Counselling Room- offering professional, kind, collaborative psychotherapy at Springwood and Capalaba.

CHRISTIAN COUNSELLING
Some clients really enjoy experiencing their counselling within a christian framework. Being able to invite God to be part of their change process is really meaningful for them.
Others are seeking just traditional counselling. My philosophy is to try to genuinely match the needs of each client, and I will always use therapies and techniques which most suit any particular client.
marriage & relationship counselling
No-one actually gets taught how to make a relationship work, so it isn't any wonder that we often don't know what to do when things start to fall apart.
- Couple goals
- Communication
- Intimacy issues
- Crises
- Creating true safety and security in the relationship
I use a combination of therapies, including Emotionally Focused Therapy, to help couples find their way back to love.
PHONE AND SKYPE COUNSELLING
Can't make it into the clinic?
- remote areas
- housebound
- time-poor
- lacking transport

I offer phone and Skype individual and couple counselling.
Clients find it just as effective and helpful as face-to-face counselling.

I offer reasonably-priced workshops for your community group, workplace, parent group, club, or church.
Workshop topics are available to suit your group's needs.
- Interactive
- Interesting
- Helpful
I am a pretty relaxed, friendly presenter, and am happy to work with your organisation to provide a workshop on a topic that suits you.
