	Counsellor Clinical Social Worker	ABN 85 101 448 235



	As a Social Worker and Counsellor I work with people’s strengths and abilities to overcome the physical, social and emotional barriers that prevent them achieving their goals. People hold the keys to improving their own lives and when they are able to experience and acknowledge success, no matter how small, they are often motivated to continue and can regain their inner strength and direction.

Service Notes

Service Quality Provision

Short or long term counselling for individuals. Generally one-hour sessions, but can be negotiated according to need. My service is offered to private individuals or staff members (EAP) and Professional Supervision is also provided.

I undertake regular Professional Development and supervision, to ensure my continued accreditation with the Australian Association of Social Workers and my registration as a Mental Health Social Worker.

Experience

Orientation

Since graduating as a Social Worker in 1984, I have worked with children and adults on a range of mental health and personal issues including stress, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transition and direction, social skills, self esteem and career guidance. I am registered with MAIB, VVCS and Medicare.

My Social Work and Counselling practice is guided by my inherent belief in social justice and my personal creativity and pragmatic approach. I believe that people seek assistance because they want something in their lives to change, but for some reason feel unable to achieve it themselves. I often use Strengths Based, Solution Focussed, Narrative, ACT and CBT approaches and I find metaphors, stories and other creative approaches are very powerful tools.
