Nexus Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, Candace Marshall MA, CCC
Being in the nexus of something means you are right in the middle of it hence, easy to feel overwhelmed by the multitude of things coming at you. At Nexus, I will work with you within the context of a nonjudgmental, collaborative and healing therapeutic relationship to parse out and clearly see the interwoven links and connections that contribute to how you experience, perceive and interpret life's challenges, difficulties and obstacles. Understanding these connections allows for the separation of what is important to you and focus on your goal(s) to improve your mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.
While I work with clients from all walks of life with varied life issues & psychological disorders, my clinical work is largely focused on working with clients affected by Dissociative Disorders and PTSD. Since graduating in 2013, I have accumulated over 10,000 clinical hours with this population & work using range of approaches depending on client needs.

Mindnest Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Couns
Reaching out for counselling can feel like a big step, especially when you are overwhelmed, stuck or unsure where to begin.
I work with adults and couples experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, ADHD, grief, workplace pressure, relationship difficulties, low self esteem, emotional overwhelm or major life changes. You do not need to arrive with a clear explanation of what is wrong. We can start with what has been feeling hardest lately.
My approach is warm, practical and straight talking. I will listen properly, ask honest questions and help you make sense of what has been happening. Together, we can look at the patterns, pressure and emotions underneath it and work out practical steps that feel realistic.
Before becoming a counsellor, I worked across law enforcement, the legal sector, crisis response, child protection and community services. These experiences shaped the way I work, with calmness, compassion and respect for what people carry.
Face to face counselling is available in Illawong, in Sydney’s Sutherland Shire, with online counselling available across Australia. I also offer a free 15 minute phone consultation if you would like to ask a few questions first.

Body Sense Psychology
Psychologist, Master of Psychology, Bachelor of Arts (Honours Psychology), Certificate in Sexology
At Body Sense Psychology, I help you make sense of how your body holds your story. Life experiences, stress, trauma and health conditions show up physically as much as psychologically. By working together, I can help you understand these connections and create pathways towards
change, healing and resilience. As a fully registered psychologist I provide a safe, nurturing and non-judgemental environment for clients from all walks of life. I have a strong focus on ensuring that I'm the right therapeutic fit for you and work towards a deep understanding of you, your story, where you are now, and where you'd like to be. I apply the latest evidence-based psychological approaches that are appropriate for your needs and goals.
