Rosette Rouhana Art Therapy
Art Therapist, Bachelor of Art Therapy
Hello and welcome! I am a registered Arts Therapist and counsellor based in Sydney. I provide art therapy and counselling to those diagnosed with Autism. Through my practice, I make an intentional commitment to support individuals in their health and wellbeing journey. My mission is to enrich and empower the lives of others through creativity and connection. My passion for expressive creative arts has inspired me to further explore how art can be used as a tool for healing, and the ways it can be used in mental health recovery as a psychotherapeutic modality.

Ballarat is Victoria's third-largest city, an inland regional centre with a proud gold rush heritage and a contemporary economy built on education, manufacturing, and regional services, and its mental health landscape reflects the particular challenges of a provincial city navigating the tension between its historical significance and the need to offer a modern, liveable community for young residents who might otherwise migrate to Melbourne. Federation University Australia is based in Ballarat and contributes to the local mental health workforce through its psychology programs, and Grampians Health provides public mental health services to the region. The surrounding agricultural communities create additional mental health demand for rural and farming populations, and Ballarat serves as a hub for mental health access across western Victoria. Common therapy concerns include regional and rural isolation, farming community stress, student mental health at Federation University, anxiety, depression, and the identity and belonging challenges of building a life in a regional city competing with the pull of major urban centres.
