about me
Welcome to Mindful Body Counselling. My name is Anna. I support adults, teenagers and couples in Sutherland.
If you are new to counselling, it makes perfect sense to be overwhelmed or slightly anxious about meeting a stranger for the first time and being more vulnerable than you have ever been. This is why it is important that I create a supportive and non judgmental environment where you are able to freely feel, think and be exactly who you are. I believe in the importance of the therapeutic relationship and I am not afraid to be a little humorous when working with clients to build a strong therapeutic alliance.
My particular interests are supporting teenagers and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, imposter syndrome, life transitions and relationship concerns. I have been working in the mental health industry for 4 years in various roles and bring a depth of experience and knowledge to my role as a counsellor.
The path to seeking support can be uncomfortable and I commend you for taking the first step to reach out. Sessions are confidential and founded on ensuring you are feeling seen, heard and understood for your unique life experiences and desired outcomes.
