Absolute Minds: Mental Health Therapy

31/03/2026

Malcom and Socks having a chat yesterday.
I was a really lovely moment just pausing and watching their interaction. Taking time to notice their relationship but also their relationship with myself and client. These pauses give us more information than often words do.
Just notice and see what the universe offers

Your little person falls apart after school, day at a friends or after a day out? This is a wonderful explanation and great advice.

Happy Mental Health Nurses Day!!
As a credentialed mental health nurse I feel so blessed to have the skills to support people in distress. Holding space during difficult times for others is not easy however it what MHN do best and show up each day.

I currently have some regular therapy sessions available after making a couple of changes.
Are you curious what life could look like without distress of past memories, maybe what going to a work meeting or exam without excessive anxiety, overwhelming grief, or just know that your mental wellbeing could be better? Maybe take the opportunity to reach out and start working on you.
I offer a trauma informed approach utilising EMDR and equine assisted therapy
Send me a message and we can have a chat about how I can support you.

PS the three support ponies are taking over the therapy shed 🥰

Things are so relaxed here that during therapy today Astro had a nap. So special watching him have pony dreams.
Have you ever fell asleep at work? See comments on my experience 🤣

My past and present clients and participants would be very familiar with our Big Gentleman Mustard. On Thursday morning we woke to find him forever sleeping in his shed. Devastated we are and his calm presence will be greatly missed.
Thank you Mustard for support during therapy sessions.

So what do Absolute Minds offer?

Mental health Therapy done a little differently. No sitting in a room with artificial lighting. Sessions are outside, connecting to nature, animals, self and therapist.

Together we work towards YOUR goals using therapeutic modalities such as CBT, EMDR, Equine Assisted Therapy and generalised counselling.

Currently accepting private clients and third party referrals. NDIS participant waiting list currently full.

I love this idea and all these things have evidence for assistance during anxiety and panic attacks

✨PANIC ATTACK KIT ✨

I’ve been working with a few clients recently dealing with panic attacks - and I have also shared that 2025 saw me experiencing my first ever anxiety and panic attacks also. ( thanks to my well publicised media annihilation 😭)

Sometimes your body needs something big, bold and sensory to break through a panic spiral.

If you or your loved one is having a panic attack, try one of these quick “circuit-breakers”:

✨ Sniff something strong - peppermint oil or my personal favourite - Vicks. A sudden scent can interrupt the overwhelm and pull the brain back into the present.

🍋 Suck a sour lolly - the shock of sour activates the vagus nerve and helps ground the body fast.

💦 Spray your face with cool water - it resets your nervous system and tells your brain, “You’re safe.” I personally love a water spray on the face. ( Hello perimenopause 👋)

🍃 Bach reduce remedy - an all natural pastille or drops to help with anxiety

These aren’t cures - just simple sensory hacks that can help you get your footing again.

Your body isn’t failing you. It’s asking for support. And you deserve every tool that helps.

All of these are easy to keep on hand and no one will know what they’re for. I keep them in my bag and in my car - ready to bring me back when I feel myself spiralling 💛

Well I have officially completed all the requirements to be an EMDR therapist. Many hours of study. This therapy modality continues to blow my mind how it effective it is. Now, do I do the next part and become Accredited????
