Counselling in Newcastle, NSW

If you are feeling overwhelmed, tired, hopeless or lacking joy; like your emotions are uncontrollable or that they do not match with reality; that your worry is getting out of hand or that there is no longer any point, then it might be a good time to seek some support. ​ We are social creatures, and despite what our modern society might have us believe, we all need human connection to function. Seeking support is a huge sign of strength – the strength to actually reach out and let someone in, in order to start the healing process. ​ If you can relate to this or if you have set yourself a personal development goal please reach out.

I can offer support to NDIS self managed & plan managed clients. I have both in person clinics and virtual options for all appointments.

I am an experienced and professionally qualified EMDR and couples psychotherapist and relationship therapist. I have experience working with adolescents and adults ranging in age from 13-80 and have worked with client issues including depression, anxiety, interpersonal or relational issues, self-harm, suicide ideation, social anxiety, bereavement, trauma, domestic violence, sexual abuse, and neurodiversity, particularly ADHD. My clients come to me with a range of issues, but all seeking a safe space to explore themselves and break through barriers to achieve personal growth, increased contentment and better relationships.

Art Therapy is my primary treatment method: a gentle and considered way to explore challenges and issues. I always speak about the 3 E's that you will encounter as we work together. AT is emergent, experiential & embodied. It is more than talk therapy alone. Through creative processes we can locate and reconsider experiences not easily put into words. I enjoy holding space to share your thoughts, feelings and future ambitions visually. As a lived experience practitioner with a history of recovery, I understand how challenging it can be to seek support, but welcome folks trying a session to see if you find my style a good fit.

If you would like to end this constant need to prove yourself, to go deep and break free from this 'good girl/nice guy' pattern, you’ve come to the right place...

Hello, my name is Kendall. I am a queer sex and relationship therapist working exclusively online with the queer community. The majority of patients that I work with are AFAB, and of the sapphic persuasion, identities vary however I do work a lot with trans and NB folk. Individuals come to me for a variety of reasons from navigating their first queer relationship, sexual anxiety, coming to terms with their gender, realising they are some form of queer and unsure as to what to do about it. Couples are often seeking a queer therapist that simply 'gets it' to help navigate their queer relationship.

I've helped many people see their lives more clearly and be the person they want to be. What would you like to change? Is there something you feel is holding you back but you just can't figure out what or why? Sometimes you might just want someone to talk to that isn't a friend or family member to give you an independent insight to a problem. Whatever you are looking for, I can help you reframe what isn't working and give you a different perspective.
