Prue Keenan
Counsellor/Therapist, Graduate Diploma of Holistic Counselling
As a single parent to two boys, I have sought a lot of guidance over the years to learn better ways to parent, and therefore support myself to navigate the everyday parenting challenges. I have tools to share for relating to our kids better, communicating and understanding our needs (and triggers!!), and overall, building our relationships that really helps through hard times. I love sharing these with parents - we learn a lot from one another.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
I have vast experience listening to many, many peoples parenting stories. Thus I feel I have a good understanding of the common parenting problems and issues, and how they can impact you and your children when experiencing them. I can support you to find connection, strength and empowerment within your parenting to restore balance, happiness and inner peace.
I can do this by using various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
