I get this and want to congratulate you for having the courage and taking time to enhance your self care. What the evidence and research tells us is that the effectiveness of counselling is relative to the level of empowerment that it promotes. Its this knowledge that I hold at the forefront of each session.

05/01/2026

For many of us, today marks a return to routine. The holidays are behind us, and slowly we step back into the rhythm of 2026.

May you remember to keep your spark alive — even in the simplest moments of everyday life.
Breathe presence into your mornings. Choose curiosity in the ordinary. Carry your light into the grocery line, the commute, the emails, the small meetings and tasks.

And for us psychotherapists, a gentle reflection:
have you paused to consider what you would like to learn this year?
Which OPDs, courses, workshops, or spaces of supervision might nourish you in 2026 — not only professionally, but personally?

The world needs you whole — alive, sensitive, and authentic. ✨

As the year unfolds, I am offering a limited number of spaces for individual supervision for psychotherapists seeking a reflective, relational, and supportive space.
If this resonates, feel free to reach out.

Happy new year everyone!🦋🌹🌟

I feel deeply passionate about supervision because I see it as a living, relational space — not just for case discussion, but for reflection, growth, ethics, and care of the therapist behind the work.

Supervision, for me, is where we slow down, make meaning together, and reconnect with our intentions.
It’s where clinical skills meet self-awareness, culture, values, and nervous system regulation.

My passion for multiculturalism is inseparable from this.
Having lived and worked across cultures, I’m always aware that therapy doesn’t happen in a vacuum.
Culture, migration stories, language, identity, power, and belonging are always present in the room.

In supervision, I aim to create a culturally safe and reflective space — one that welcomes difference, invites curiosity, and supports ethical, responsive practice with diverse communities.

If this way of thinking about supervision resonates with you, I’d love to stay connected or explore working together in supervision. Have a blessed 2026 with love and light 🌹🦋

menopause phase- something beautiful is happening.

My body is quieter.
My intuition is louder.
I trust my gut again — not because I learned it,
but because I remembered it.

Reading (again!) Women Who Run With the Wolves-Clarissa Pinkola Estes
I feel the deep, ancient knowing returning.
The wild woman doesn’t shout.
She whispers — and she is always right.

This stage of life is not a loss.
It is an initiation.

As women, and as therapists, counsellors, supervisors,
we are taught to explain, to justify, to soften.
But here… we no longer need permission.

If you are in this season — peri, meno, post —
know this: your clarity is not harsh,
your boundaries are not cold,
your intuition is not reckless.

It is wisdom ripened.

Trust the changes.
Trust the slowing.
Trust the fire that now burns with purpose, not urgency.

You are not disappearing.
You are arriving — fully.

✨What is your body asking you to trust right now —
and what might change if you listened without doubt?

Happy 2026🌟🫶

This year was a journey.
A year of challenges, courage, and quiet resilience.

As mental health professionals, we carry the responsibility of caring for others while learning—again and again—how to care for ourselves. Therapy, supervision, study, registration...,a deep investment in ethics, growth, and humanity.

In a world marked by emotional dysregulation, migration journeys, inner and outer conflicts, fear of the unknown, and longing for what was left behind—you came here to learn. You grew. You connected. You built community. You discovered more of who you are.

You reached dreams and, often without noticing, became hope for those just beginning their path.

As a new year approaches, may hope be reborn in your heart.
We are agents of change, and the work we do matters.

Thank you for your time, your presence, and your energy in keeping this supervision space alive.

Wishing you a gentle and meaningful New Year ✨🦋

Hello!✨

I hope you are all well and enjoying this last week of 2025.
This is a beautiful time to pause, reflect, and begin setting our intentions for 2026.

What dream did you bring to life in 2025?
What lessons and growth are you taking with you?
And as you look ahead, what project, goal, or vision would you like to nurture in 2026 — personally or professionally?

As we step into the new year, I’m also opening space to work together in clinical supervision for counsellors in 2026.
If you’re a counsellor looking for a reflective, trauma-informed, and supportive supervision space, I’d love to connect.

If this resonates, feel free to reach out via DM.
May we continue to grow, support, and inspire one another. 🌿🦋

Happy 2026🫶🦋🦋

As 2025 comes to a close, my heart is full.

🎄 To all therapists: as we close another year of listening deeply, caring deeply, and showing up even when tired — I’m thinking of you. May your Christmas include softness, laughter, and permission to pause.

Supervision 2026🌿

I’ll be offering individual supervision in 2026 for counsellors and supervisors seeking a supportive, reflective, and relational space.
My approach is trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and grounded in reflective practice (ACA Level 4 Supervisor | Clinical PAFCA).

As the year comes to a close, I want to deeply thank my supervisees. You do truly meaningful and often invisible work — holding people’s stories, emotions, and pain with care and integrity. The way you show up for others is remarkable, and it is a privilege to walk alongside such thoughtful and committed practitioners.

Wishing you all a safe, restful, and well-deserved holiday break 🌿

Warmly,
Claudia Da Silva

💙 Holding Bondi and the wider Sydney community in our hearts 💙

In the wake of the tragic events at Bondi, my thoughts are with everyone affected — the victims, their families, first responders, and the wider community. Events like this can leave people feeling shocked, unsettled, or overwhelmed, even if they were not directly involved.

If you or someone you know is struggling and needs support, NSW Victims Services offers free and confidential counselling, financial assistance, and practical support for people affected by violent crime.

Please reach out if you need support, and feel free to share this so it reaches those who may need it.

🎄✨ Holiday Season Survival Kit ✨🎄

The end of the year brings joy, connection, memories… and sometimes fatigue, family tension, and triggers.
Here are soft reminders to care for yourself:

1. Breathe before you respond.
Your breath brings you back to the present.

💛 2. You’re not responsible for everyone’s emotions.
You can be present without absorbing everything.

✨ 3. Set clear & kind boundaries.
“It’s not a good time for me.”
“I need some space.”
“I’ll come back after I regulate.”

🧘‍♀️ 4. Ground yourself.
Slow breathing, step outside, notice something beautiful, cold water on your hands.

🍃 5. Practice self-compassion.
“That was hard for me.”
Speak to yourself with kindness.

📱 6. Have a safety person.
Someone you can message with a simple “🕊”.

🌿 7. Take micro pauses.
Feel your feet. Notice your breath. Check your body.

🍽 8. Eat & drink with presence.
Enjoy without autopilot or numbing.

🌙 9. Step away to recentre.
A 5–10 minute break can reset your system.

🎁 10. Give yourself a real gift.
Rest, silence, time alone, or a loving “no.”

🕊 11. Make an exit plan.
Walk away or leave early if needed.

💬 12. Gentle reminders:
“I can just observe.”
“This isn’t about me.”
“I choose peace.”

May this season meet you with gentleness, presence, and the freedom to be yourself.
Happy Holidays! ✨🥳

As we close this year, I’m holding so much gratitude for every person I’ve had the privilege to sit with — clients, supervisees, colleagues, and the beautiful humans who allow me into their stories.

This season can bring a mix of light and heaviness, so my wish for you is simple:
that you care for your heart gently, honour your limits, and stay close to what feels true for you.

Healing isn’t a straight line; it’s relational, it’s human, and it unfolds in small sacred moments — the breath you remember to take, the boundary you set, the softness you offer yourself after a hard day. I see your effort, your courage, and the quiet transformations happening inside you.

Thank you for trusting me, for your openness, and for walking this path with such authenticity. It is an honour to witness your growth and to share this journey with you.

Wishing you rest, warmth, connection, and a new year that feels spacious and kind.🦋🌹❣️
