I offer a warm, grounded, culturally attuned space for adults moving through emotional distress, relationship difficulties, and life transitions.

Rana Salloum - Relationships & Diversity (Sentient)
Counsellor/Therapist, Counsellor, MA, ACA-L3
I have over 15 years of experience working with multicultural populations, in different countries such as the USA and Lebanon. I offer therapy in both English and Arabic. I can also hold a conversation in French. I support at-risk youth, displaced families, and those facing relationship problems. I work with mood disorders and different types of trauma, created by bullying and domestic violence. I offer a client-centred and multicultural approach in therapy. I emphasise accepting the uniqueness of each individual while also working with the intricate impact of culture on self- awareness, development and overall well-being.
In addition to the wide range of therapeutic techniques I use, I offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I am also an animal lover and believe in integrating animals into therapy, when appropriate, as this type of therapy can provide soothing, healing and comfort for individual clients.
I view the process of counselling as a delicate and enriching experience, both for my clients as well as for myself as a counsellor.

John Castleford
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MIAEB, FRAI
I have been a psychotherapist and mental health coach for many years, and I now specialise almost exclusively in helping those with, or recovering from, cancer. It's a debilitating disease that I have experienced twice, so I know at first hand the effect it can have on the quality of life and particularly how it makes us feel -- either as a reaction to being diagnosed and undergoing treatment, or when in remission as a survivor, the fear of it recurring.
I can also help family members and close friends, who often feel helpless bystanders.
We have all experienced our feelings dominating what we think, and what we do. But heightened emotions stop us thinking clearly. And that can often lead us to feel out of control.
Unlike many therapists, I do not believe that the adverse effect on our thinking and our behaviour from a life-changing event like cancer is a dysfunctional flaw or a disorder that needs treatment. Typical reactions to cancer --anxiety, fear, stress and low mood -- are part of life. Why cancer often triggers is a range of reactions: shock and denial; Shock and denial that it is happening. Coping with fear, anxiety and panic can be difficult, particularly as mood swings may frequently change. Feelings of sadness may range from low moof to extreme depression.
Ultimately we know, at a rational level, that we are mortal. But we also have we also have a very strong instinct to survive. We want to live. And enjoy life. Cancer is not the death sentence it once was.
I can help you come to terms with the reality as well as the inevitable perceptions that may influence you. And I can help you to flourish, rather than just cope and survive.

Toowoomba is Australia's second-largest inland city and the regional hub of the Darling Downs, serving a large agricultural hinterland across one of Australia's most productive farming regions, and its mental health landscape reflects both the needs of a regional city and the particular stresses of farming communities navigating drought, financial pressure, and geographic isolation. Darling Downs Health provides public mental health services, and the University of Southern Queensland (USQ) based in Toowoomba contributes trained counsellors and psychologists to the local mental health workforce through its psychology programs. Agricultural stress, the mental health impact of prolonged drought, and the challenges of rural isolation are among the most significant mental health issues in the broader Toowoomba region, and the city serves as the access point for mental health care across a wide rural area. Common therapy concerns include farm and rural stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and the adjustment challenges of agricultural and service sector workers in a regional city.
