Hello,

 I'm Gemma - a counsellor from the Sunshine Coast in QLD. 

I offer online, Australia-wide mental health counselling for individuals struggling with:

• - Anxiety and Self-Doubt

• - OCD

• - Phobias

I ensure a client-centered, confidential, and safe environment online for my clients. My counseling approach draws heavily from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT is a mindfulness-based behavioural therapy that encourages self-compassion, acceptance, and committed action aligned with personal values. ACT promotes cognitive, behavioural, and emotional flexibility. This means learning to unhook from the thoughts and beliefs holding you back so you can carry on living.

Using collaborative goal-setting, mindfulness practices, and purposeful action, in combination with exposure exercises, I aim to help you confidently move forward and cultivate the life that you desire. 

A bit about me:

Before becoming a counsellor, I worked as a teacher in various settings. In my spare time, I love to play music, travel, and spend as much time in nature as possible.
