I am also a Mental Health Social Worker who is now able to provide professional counselling services to clients as part of the Medicare Mental Health Care Plan.
My areas of expertise for both women and men include individual counselling for the following issues:-
- Anxiety (Panic Attacks, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Trauma from Childhood Sexual Abuse)
- Depression
- Low Self-Esteem/Confidence
- Relationship Counselling

WHY DO CLIENTS SEEK COUNSELLING
SOMETIMES PEOPLE ‘JUST NEED TO TALK TO SOMEONE’
SOMETIMES THEY ARE IN A CRISIS
THEY WANT TOOLS/TECHNIQUES TO CHANGE BEHAVIOUR
THEY WANT INSIGHT INTO THEIR FEELINGS
IT’S A SAFE PLACE TO EXPLORE DIFFICULT FEELINGS
THEY HAVE A ‘BUSY’ HEAD
AFTER MY COUNSELLING SESSIONs clients should either:-
“HEAR SOMETHING VALUABLE
FEEL SOMETHING REVEALING
OR LEARN SOMETHING USEFUL”
I operate Tuesday – Saturday and after hours if required during the week. My counselling room is at 3/120 Hoare Street, Manunda 4870 – upstairs from Inform Chiropractic Services. Bookings can be made by contacting me directly on my mobile emailing me at runningonempathy at iprimus dot com dot au.
I will provide counselling with sensitivity, compassion and care in a safe and supported environment.
