Individual counselling in Peregian Springs, Sunshine Coast,
where you find support to heal from anxiety, depression and addictive behaviours. Engage in Compassion Focused Therapy to stop painful self-judgment, break free from isolation and increase your resilience to stress.
Compassion Focused Therapy
You are here for a reason. You may be hurting, been through trauma, lost your spark or can't stop ruminating over the past. You may want to find ways to face your fears, recover from setbacks and adversity that effected you for long enough.
- Counselling helps you explore how you can overcome emotional isolation. Realise how your childhood environment shaped the way you see the world and yourself. Learn how you can free yourself of your harsh inner critic, constant self-blame or default negative thinking.
- Do you want to make a positive change in your life, re-build connections and find meaning?
- Are you keen to increase your resilience?
Gain more insight into your mindset, what holds you back from being who you want to be: thoughts and feelings behind behaviours. Cultivate a positive mindset and self-compassion: act with courage and dedication.
Individual Counselling
- Feeling down or always worrying?
- Lacking confidence or afraid of being judged?
- Finding it hard to connect with others, fit in or be understood?
- Are you a perfectionist or intensely self-critical?
Counselling can help with these issues plus many more.
Individual counselling offers a safe and non-judgemental place to explore persistent negative feelings. Depression, anxiety and low self-worth can all be approached with deep care and compassion. You can cultivate 'emotional fitness', become more self-aware and resilient. Life can be hard. However, it is possible to get better at coping with stress, trauma and feelings of brokenness.
Grief Counselling
- Loss of a loved one, relationship breakup, job redundancy, business failure or health deterioration can all trigger the process of grieving.
- Feeling left alone and unable to cope?
- Do pain and longing rule your every waking moment?
- Have you lost hope for the future?
When facing a loss, it is still possible to learn to cope with it and reduce suffering.
