✨✨ IMPORTANT UPDATE! ✨✨
---------------------------------------

Hi Everyone,

It is with mixed feelings that I am announcing the transition from Face-to-Face services to ONLINE / TELEHEALTH COUNSELLING!
-
-
Due to the upcoming Wynnum Office Closure at the end of the month, Online Counselling Services (via Zoom) will commence Monday, November 15th, with sessions available Mon-Fri between the hours of 9am-9pm.
-
-
is ONLINE COUNSELLING? --->

Online Counselling (web, tablet or mobile-based) allows people to express highly personal issues from the comfort of their home, workplace or place of their choosing; rather than attending a clinical setting. In today's world, accessing a mental health professional is now easier than ever before, reducing stigma & lessening a person's shame or guilt of divulging something they may perceive as embarrassing or strange!

eTherapy helps people overcome obstacles to their well-being by collaboratively exploring strengths, skills and available resources in a safe, familiar environment. As you become more self-aware during the counselling process, you are empowered to make healthy decisions, handle difficult situations more easily, and ultimately, reach your goals.
-
-
does ONLINE COUNSELLING work? --->

*Zoom is extremely easy to use. Shortly before your appointment time, simply click the meeting link sent to you, and it will open in any web browser, or via the zoom app on your smart phone. Then use the unique password provided to connect to your Counsellor. Easy!
-
-
On a personal note... I would like express heart-felt gratitude to everyone who has supported me over the last few years, turning my dreams of private practice into a reality, and to the wonderful friendships formed within the Wynnum community. I am looking forward to the challenge of navigating the world of Online / Telehealth, meeting new people and embracing the ''work-from-home revolution" to (hopefully) spend more time with family & friends!

Stay Safe & Chat soon :)
