Philosophy & Vision
Hi, I'm Lauren, a registered Social Worker through the Australian Association of Social Workers, and a Clinical Hypnotherapist who provides both counselling and hypnotherapy. Over the past decade, I have specialised in helping people overcome the devastating effects of domestic violence and trauma. But I am also well versed in helping people of all ages deal with a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, PTSD, and so much more. I work with individuals of all ages as well as couples.
Background
I have over 26 years of industry experience, with the last 12 years focusing on domestic violence and trauma recovery. I have recently explored the world of hypnotherapy and find this to be a useful tool to support traditional counselling or to use as a stand alone service for issues around anxiety, weight loss, or wanting to reduce alcohol consumption.
Services
Welcome to the beginning of your journey towards total wellness. Counselling can be for individuals or couples and range from 60-90 min appointments depending on what you require. I also offer a free 15 minute initial consultation to see if I am the best person to suit your needs.

A conversation with Lauren Reiners
-
I saw a counsellor as a child and found the process to be so helpful, and insightful. It allowed me space to be able to express whatever it was that I was feeling, without judgement. Since I was a child, I wanted to be able to provide the same experience for others.
