Individual Counselling
Do you ever feel too overwhelmed to deal with your problems? If so, you’re not alone.
At Wellmind Psychology, we provide a calm, inviting and supportive space for our clients to explore their difficulties. Our therapists are respectful and compassionate professionals who are highly experienced in a variety of areas.
According to the National Institute of Mental Health, more than a quarter of Australian adults experience depression, anxiety or another mental disorder in any given year and may benefit from psychological counselling. Others may benefit from support or guidance regarding lifestyle matters such as chronic illness or pain, relationship issues, job loss, grief and loss, stress or substance abuse.
Others need help coping with a serious illness, losing weight or stopping smoking. Still others struggle to cope with relationship troubles, job loss, the death of a loved one, stress, substance abuse or other issues. And these problems can often become debilitating.
How does therapy work?
Psychologists use psychotherapy and evidence based treatments to help people of all ages live happier, healthier and more productive lives.
In psychotherapy, therapists apply scientifically validated procedures to help people develop healthier, more effective habits. There are several approaches to psychotherapy — including cognitive-behaviuoral, interpersonal, solution focussed and other kinds of talk therapy such as gestalt, DBT and ACT — that help individuals work through their problems.
Psychotherapy is a collaborative treatment based on the relationship between an individual and a psychologist. Grounded in dialogue, it provides a supportive environment that allows you to talk openly with someone who is objective, neutral and non-judgmental. You and your therapist will work together to identify the thought and behaviour patterns that are keeping you from feeling your best.
