Tayla Hunter
Languages Spoken:
- English
I am deeply committed to empowering children, young people, and their families through compassionate and evidence-based counselling. With a Bachelor of Human Services (Major in Counselling) earned in 2017 from a local university, I have devoted my career to advocating for those in need. My extensive experience spans roles as a Youth Worker, Case Manager, and Specialist Children’s Counsellor, with a focused background in addressing the impact of domestic violence.
I have worked closely with clients facing a range of disorders and mental health challenges, including ADHD, ASD, PDA, ODD, anxiety, and depression. Each session is approached with empathy, understanding, and a strong commitment to fostering a safe space where children can express their true selves. Through the transformative power of play, I employ a non-directive methodology that encourages exploration of thoughts and emotions, allowing children to navigate their experiences in a supportive environment.
Currently, I am further enhancing my skills by completing training in child-centered play therapy, with the goal of becoming a certified Play Therapist. In addition, I am a proud Level 2 member of the Australian Counselling Association, hold professional liability insurance, and actively engage in clinical supervision and ongoing professional development. This commitment ensures I provide the highest standard of care to my clients.
I look forward to continuing my journey to help young individuals thrive, developing their confidence and resilience while navigating the challenges they face at KLC Counselling & Play Therapy. Together, we can create a brighter, more empowered future for every child and family I encounter.
