My name is Louise, and my husband of 24 years and I have six children. Some of our children are being schooled at home whilst others are in the school system (public and private). In light of this, I am aware of the challenges
and joys that parenting and family life bring.
In life, we face challenging and difficult events and sometimes it helps to talk these over with someone outside of the situation. As a counsellor, I can ‘walk alongside you’ during these times and help you uncover and move
forward in areas you may feel ‘stuck’ in.
I provide a confidential, friendly, caring and non-judgemental space for you to talk openly and honestly about life’s current challenges. Looking at your emotional, physical, social and spiritual needs with a client centred
approach, I aim to see you come to a place of growth, healing and freedom.
I can help in areas of: infidelity, pornography, sex addiction, sexual abuse, general wellbeing, relationship difficulties, depression, stress, anxiety, goal setting, grief and loss, suicidal thoughts and lifestyle changes.
I have a special interest in helping people navigate and overcome the challenges they face due to living in a highly sexualised society. For this reason, I am currently furthering my education by studying a Master of Science
in Medicine (Sexual and Reproductive Health in Psychosexual Therapy).
Please access my website for further information and to book an appointment. I provide both online (Zoom) and in person appointments. I am a registered provider with some health funds. If you have private health cover
you may be eligible for a rebate depending on your level of cover.

Bryan’s counselling style is one that seeks to genuinely help people who would like someone to listen to them without judging them. His approach to counselling is one that demonstrates acceptance, compassion, and respect
to those who seek his counsel. He believes that the counselling room should be a safe space in which people are enabled to be empowered to explore issues that they are seeking help with, and to arrive at their own
conclusions in their own time.
Bryan seeks to help people develop viable solutions to their problems and by adopting a holistic approach, he aims to help them achieve a more optimistic and healthier outlook on life. Bryan has had significant experience in coming alongside
people who struggle with issues as low self-esteem, mental health, disability, depression, loneliness, imprisonment, anger, relationship breakdown, grief, and loss of hope.
Bryan has a 23yo son with Down Syndrome and he well understands the difficulties and challenges that come with raising special needs children.

Counselling, I employ patient, active listening that elicits insights to support and help clients in a relatively effective way to understanding their core issue, or fear, ideation or problem area. Timely support can
move time together to the application of an applicable and guided neuroscientific approach, where together, we journey towards the revelation of what’s troubling for clarity and hopefully, healing. Additionally,
neuroplasticity supports to move our time together and apart with new ideation and belief for you to defuse, and healing your daily life and walk through self-love and ongoing, positive ideation, self-acceptance, understanding
and self-appreciation.
