Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
I find clients are looking to understand themselves, to find reasons they struggle the way they do, and discover how they got where they are. We've all been influenced by our experiences, whether good or bad. Good healthy experiences give us the tools and confidence to navigate life, but what happens when our experiences have been far from good? A child experiencing abuse, trauma, loss, and neglect believes they deserve it or it's their fault, not knowing the adults in their lives are responsible to help them feel secure and confident. Negative childhood experiences often throw individuals into feeling too much responsibility, becoming people pleasers, carrying much shame and guilt, feeling like a burden, social awkwardness, experiencing cognitive distortions, depression, addictions, loss of identity, anxiety and panic disorders, inter-relational problems, lack of confidence, and a lack of boundaries. Clients need to know they're not to blame and there's hope to experience a healthier and purposeful life, the life they were meant to have. Clients need to know they belong, they matter and are not a mistake. If you want to find freedom, purpose, contentment, and healing schedule a 30 minute free consultation to explore whether we'd be a good fit to journey together to a better you.

Penelope Yen
Psychologist, BA (Hons), MACP, Registered Provisional Psychologist
Don't you wish you could move forward from trauma and stop it from impacting your day-to-day life? I can help you recover from trauma, work through relationship issues, and live a more meaningful and fulfilling life. My skills come not only from my education and training, but also from a profuse amount of lived experience. I have faced my own mental health struggles and traumas in the past and I know how hard it can be to move forward.
My goal is to provide truly helpful, evidence-based psychological assessment and counselling for adult individuals and couples. I always aim to provide the best possible type of therapy according to your preferences and the way your mind works. I am neurodiversity affirming and believe in working with you, not on you.
I have a particular interest in helping adults who have experienced trauma, whether in childhood or recently, but even if you're just going through a tough or confusing time, I can work with you to truly find a more fulfilling path through life and its issues. I also go over and above the therapy hour to provide your own portal of relevant digital resources.
