About Freshwater Harmony Counselling Services

Supporting the mental health and wellbeing of individuals and the community through individual counselling, mental health education, and mental health and wellbeing coaching. People come to counselling usually because they are experiencing distress, suffering, or discomfort. I have a particular interest working with clients with chronic, serious and invisible illness who may be experiencing mental health challenges related to issues including self-management, grief and loss, sense of self and hope for the future. I also work with individuals and organisations to support and improve mental health within sport. My counselling style is compassion-focused, person-centred, and trauma-informed. While reflective listening underpins all sessions, I use an integrated approach depending on the individual needs of each person. I have a particular interest in Compassion-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and use these as well as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Socratic questioning, creative therapies, and Motivational Interviewing, depending on each client’s individual goals and needs. My hope with Freshwater Harmony Counselling Services is to help communities and individuals listen intently to one another and start important conversations that connect people and nurture a sense of belonging. My hope for my clients is that they know they have a safe, welcoming, and calm space to explore what matters to them and for them to leave each session with increased insight, validation, and self-compassion. Individual counselling for issues including anxiety, stress, feelings of disconnection, shame, challenges regulating emotions, depression, trauma, grief, challenges making decisions, self-criticism, relationship issues, workplace issues, overwhelm, guilt, chronic illness and pain, burnout, anger management, unhelpful thinking, loss, and life changes. Counselling sessions via Halaxy Telehealth.
