14.01.2022 Constantly being on alert for the threat of Coronavirus has for many people elevated stress levels to a new baseline, amplifying other daily issues and heightening mental health issues. But many people don’t recognise the signs of depression and anxiety, nor want to seek out crisis helplines. But ongoing private counselling can help ward off a crisis and offers an ongoing relationship of trust and support, and a safe space to focus just on oneself. https://www.linkedin.com//coronavirus-high-alert-creates/

04.01.2022 As we emerge from the chaos of Covid-19, health professionals and businesses face many decisions about the best way to work, interact, and engage with clients as we look to new horizons. The times ahead are certainly not going to be plain sailing, and we may have to embrace more change to ride second and third waves. Counselling is needed more than ever, and I am talking to clients about how their communication and ethical boundaries need attention so they can work competently.

04.01.2022 CONNECT TO A COUNSELLOR, TAKE CONTROL TODAY I help people who feel stuck or can’t achieve goals, need help to cope, need clarity or a plan for the future. When people come to me as a counsellor, I provide a space that is completely separate from friends, family and work colleagues, to help gain a different, objective perspective. Whether someone is depressed, anxious, has trauma and old wounds, grief, ruptured relationships, identity or lifestyle challenges, medical prob...lems, is going through a transition in life, or feeling a low sense of worth, in counselling clients can overcome barriers and learn to cope with challenges.

In 1-hour sessions for individuals, together we can focus on what is happening right now, and what is needed to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. I can listen to your story, help make sense of your experiences, and we can work out how you can best navigate challenges in your life. All you need is a quiet space, an internet connection and a secure phone, computer or tablet, and we can connect online for private counselling sessions from wherever you are. Connect with me to find a better way forward. SPECIAL OFFER To help through these very difficult times during Covid-19, I am currently offering individual sessions at $130 per hour.

03.01.2022 IS EMOTION OVERWHELMING YOUR RELATIONSHIP AND YOUR ABILITY TO TALK IT THROUGH? Are you finding it difficult to navigate your way through challenges together? Even in a close relationship, you can feel alone, or unable to talk. A third party can help. Trouble at work spilling over at home? Medical issues? Past troubles re-emerging, living apart, or having others living with you, experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, job loss, fear for your future, financial issues all of... these can compound your feelings and overwhelm a good relationship. EXPRESS YOURSELF IN A STRUCTURED, SAFE SPACE, AND UNDERSTAND WHAT YOUR RELATIONSHIP NEEDS I can help support you in a safe space, facilitate talking together with some guidelines around how we all engage. People often say that the structure and gentleness in relationship counselling is beneficial for allowing you each time to find the words to express your thoughts and feelings. I am professionally trained to help you identify and understand your issues. You can share anything and I will really listen to understand what you both need right now. My clients also say I am warm, relaxed, and that they feel very comfortable. I hope it is like talking to the best person you can imagine. WHEREVER YOUR RELATIONSHIP IS, NEW OR ESTABLISHED IS A GOOD TIME TO WORK ON IT The commitment you have made together is a special bond that is worth working on. You will both have a good opportunity to talk about your perspective. We will explore your options and find clarity about what you should do next. My aim is to help you cope with the challenges, conflicts and transitions in your life together, identify and heal wounds that might stand in your way, overcome negative patterns of thinking, behaviour and communication, and find solutions to the problems your relationship is experiencing. SUPPORTING YOU ONLINE FROM WHEREVER YOU ARE Join me online both of you from the same computer, or if it works better for you, or you are apart, we can all link up from your individual locations.

03.01.2022 Diabetes making you feel depressed? Depression making your diabetes worse? How do our bodies reflect their medical status in our mental health? I have counselled many clients for depression and anxiety who also have diabetes. It can be exhausting and emotionally draining to constantly need to check blood sugar levels and be diligent about food intake. ... The constant stress of going out and wondering if the body might become hypoglycemic can create a constant state of anxiety, with worry about being caught out in public without help. Spending too long without eating, succumbing to tempting foods while dining out, or feeling the embarrassment or concern about drawing attention to your condition can lead to medically-poor choices and a low feeling afterwards. When my clients who have diabetes come to session, along with a quick check in on their current level of anxiety and stress, I may ask how they are tracking with their glucose levels. Sometimes my clients have not seen their doctor lately but as they tell me about how they feel there are clues to something that might be contributing to their low or anxious mood. Diabetes can cause mood fluctuations. We have to pay attention to mood swings, and ups and downs, chronic tiredness, a fatigue that occurs at certain times of the day. Not being able to think clearly. We can easily attribute these symptoms to signs of depression, but it could also be a problem with blood sugar levels. And vice versa. They are not mutually exclusive. A poor quality of life and unhealthy habits can cause depression, while depression increases poor health habits and decreases quality of life. As a counsellor, I can help people feel supported and understood. I can help with goals, decision-making about habits, I can help people cope better, and set goals to decrease stress and increase sense of control and well-being. It can be helpful for all Allied Health Professionals to look out for a relationship between a client’s physical symptoms and mental distress, and be holistic in our approach to our client’s needs. My role is not to diagnose a medical issue, but to work with a client holistically. Because I am looking after the whole person mind, heart and body.

02.01.2022 Hold a special place amidst the chaos just for you. If you can’t hold that space, I will hold it for you.
