Emma Crook
Counsellor/Therapist, Diploma of Counselling
Emma brings a beautiful blend of professional expertise and genuine, heart-led warmth to her practice. Her passion for holistic wellness inspired her to step into the counselling space, driven by a deep desire to help others experience the same transformational growth she has seen firsthand.
Holding a Diploma of Counselling alongside qualifications in Lifestyle Coaching and Yoga Teaching, Emma seamlessly weaves these holistic skills together. She brings a wealth of hands-on experience to her work, dedicating herself to gently supporting both young people (ages 10-18+) and adults through their unique mental health journeys.
Often described by those around her as a "ray of sunshine," Emma has a natural gift for making people feel instantly at ease. When she isn't supporting clients, you’ll likely find her soaking up nature, saying yes to spontaneous adventures, and living and breathing all things wellness. She equally treasures the quiet moments - curling up on the couch with a good book, slowing down, and savouring the simple pleasures in life.

Michael Brew
Counsellor/Therapist, Dip(Community Services), Dip(Mental Health)
I have devoted the last 12 years of my life to supporting families and children, who have dealt with the challenges of parental trauma, addiction and family violence, with an emphasis on young people in out of home care.
My vision is to provide a safe and inclusive space that harnesses your lived experience and guides you towards a more connected self. Whatever the reason that brings you to the Rainbow Hub, the aim is to support you to find a resolution, for life's challenges.

Scott Stalley Realistic Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDipBA, GradDipMgmt(Learning), AdvDipOHS, DipCouns, DipQA, CertIV TAE
I believe real change begins with real conversations. My approach is grounded, practical, and centred on helping people feel heard, understood, and supported without judgement. I work with individuals facing relationship challenges, stress, trauma, identity struggles, and life transitions, offering strategies that are realistic and achievable.
My goal is to empower clients to rebuild confidence, strengthen boundaries, and create healthier patterns in their lives. Everyone deserves a safe space to talk, heal, and grow, and I’m committed to walking alongside you as you take those steps.

Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
I want my clients to get the most out of therapy, so that, as soon as possible, they no longer need therapy. Foremost in how I work is the establishment of as much safety as is reasonably possible and a strong collaborative alliance. I bring my full being to meet clients where they are at and walk with them to where they want to be. I work with you to tap into and develop your own innate capacities for self-awareness, emotional regulation, and healing. Whether it is trauma, grief and loss, or relational, emotional or life purpose issues, I help you get to the root cause of your experience and connect to it in a powerful, transformative way.
The parable of teaching a person to fish can apply here. Together we will catch some fish and address the immediate problems, but ultimately you will be better at fishing yourself, so you will carry the gifts of therapy with you long after we stop working together.
I chose the path of psychotherapy because I wanted to address the root cause of suffering and find a way to be of meaningful service. It is a deeply transformative and fulfilling path. There is something about being with another in therapy that leaves me never quite the same as when I entered the session. As such, my work brings me life, just as I endeavour the same for my clients. If this is resonating with you, I encourage you to contact me for a free consultation call.

Townsville is the largest city in tropical North Queensland — a military, agricultural, and mining hub built around Lavarack Barracks (home to the Army's 3rd Brigade), James Cook University, and a regional healthcare system serving a vast geographic area. The city's significant Australian Army presence creates therapy demand from military families navigating deployment stress and the emotional challenges of service life, while the broader civilian population navigates the economic cycles of mining and agriculture. Townsville University Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, while James Cook University's psychology programs supply clinical training to the local and regional community. Townsville's tropical climate and geographic isolation — it is the largest city between Brisbane and Darwin — mean therapists serve clients from a very wide catchment, and telehealth plays an important role in extending care across North Queensland.
