I work with clients collaboratively to build the change they are longing for. I strive to build strong secure therapeutic relationships with clients as the foundation of our work together. If you are tired of being stuck in your feelings of anxiety and/or depression, I am the right therapist for you. If you are tired of you and your partner having the same arguments over and over again. If the same communication issues coming up from time to time got you left feeling frustrated and alone in your relationship then let's talk about how you can get the connection and love you are longing for in your relationship.
With over 11 years of experience, I have a sound knowledge in the treatment of pre-marital/marital issues, anxiety and depression. I have extensive training in Emotions Focused Therapy (EFT). EFT is an evidence based model to help individuals to become unstuck in their emotional patterns and to help couples build the secure bond you are longing for.

My name is Michelle Keough and I am the sole practitioner and operator of Brave Beginnings Counselling Services. You are likely wondering the intention behind the 'Be Brave Be Powerful Be Mighty' slogan. When deciding on a brand for my practice I choose to go with the meaning behind my son's name. This period of my life taught me the true meaning of what being brave means. And if you ask me, my clients move me on a daily basis with the bravery they bring to the counselling room. I truly feel honoured to sit with clients during the moments in life that require them to be their bravest.
