It takes courage to reach out for counselling, especially if you’ve felt unseen or unsupported in the past.

If you’ve ever walked away from counselling feeling discouraged, you’re not alone, and it’s completely understandable to feel hesitant about trying again.

In my latest blog, I share some guidance on rebuilding trust, finding the right counsellor, and taking that first step toward support that feels safe and genuine.

Grief isn’t just about death; it can arise from any big life change: a breakup, a job ending, even a dream that no longer fits.

Counselling provides a safe space to explore these feelings, honour your loss, and find new ways forward.

Accountability is a key ingredient in building trust, safety, and connection in relationships; and it doesn’t always come naturally. That’s where counselling can make a real difference.

Many people have never been shown how to express accountability in a safe way. In counselling, you can learn and practise these tools in a supportive space.

If you and your partner are ready to create a healthier way forward, Carly can help you build those foundations of secure connection

Friendly reminder: your worth is not defined by productivity, healing takes time, and saying no is an act of self-respect.

Counselling can help you release old pressures, practise self-compassion, and build healthier boundaries so you can rest, recover, and grow without guilt.

Many couples recognise they could benefit from extra support, but worries and hesitations often hold them back.

We are so lucky to have all this on our doorsteps in Southern Adelaide. These were taken in the last week near the Marion office, the Christies Beach office and inbetween at Reynella East. Walk and talk counselling can be as active as you like. There’s always a bench to sit on and as someone with lived experience with chronic illness, Carly will never push you to walk further or faster than you choose. Feel free to share any other spots down south, and reach out if you feel this could be something you’d like to explore 😊☀️🌊🌿

Breaking cycles isn’t easy, but you don’t have to do it alone. Counselling offers a safe space to explore, heal, and create new ways forward.

The words we choose matter.
One closes the conversation, the other opens it.
In relationships, curiosity and a willingness to learn about each other’s needs are game changers.
Counselling can help you break old patterns and build healthier ways of communicating

Some days, the wins are quiet.
When you are struggling these small steps are worth being proud of; a reminder to meet yourself with self-compassion along the way.

It's unrealistic to aim for no conflict in relationships, however aiming for a relationship where you know you can bring things up and still feel loved and supported is a great goal.

These kinds of statements are signs of emotional safety, which something we work on a lot in relationship counselling. Everyone deserves to be in a relationship where you both feel heard, respected, and safe.

If you’re someone who overexplains, second guesses, or feels the need to constantly justify yourself… you're not alone. These patterns often start in childhood and are rooted in a deep need for safety, love, and acceptance.

Counselling is a chance to understand where these behaviours stem from and to let go of old habits that no longer serve you. Contact Carly today if this resonates and is something you'd like to work on.
