I find
myself in the professional space of counselling through completing a Bachelor
of Social and Community Welfare and followed that up some years later with a
Graduate Diploma of Counselling both through Monash University, as well as
several short courses relating to counselling and mental health.
I have
experience working in non-government funded agencies. The most rewarding being
a counsellor for a service in the Latrobe Valley with victim/survivors of
trauma, I spent 7 years in this space. My most recent counseling experience is
working with Adolescents and their families .
I use many
modalities in my work and have experience in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy,
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and I am currently exploring work in grief
and loss. I find the work of counselling and therapeutic conversation a
privilege. Whilst creating a safe, confidential and reflective space to discuss
life’s ups and downs are high priority to me.
