Aim for Hope Counselling
Description
Aim for Hope provides counselling in Grief and Loss, Anxiety and Trauma and has a strong focus on pregnancy loss, infertility and miscarriage support. Loss can be traumatic and unexpected just as much as it can be something we knew was coming but are not sure how to manage. My role as counsellor is to offer you support, validate those feelings and work through the anxiety and fears that can rise through grieving.
I am a registered counsellor with an undergraduate degree in Psychology. I have over 5 years experience in grief and loss counselling and all aspects of change that can be impacted through bereavement.
I also have experience working with anxiety, stress, life and career transitions. I welcome you to visit my webpage for further information about me and my practise.
Please email me and visit my webpage for more information on my fees and location.

This Video Explains the Difference Between Depression and Sadness
In Australia 45% of the population will experience a mental health condition in their lifetime and in one year over 1 million Australian adults will have a level of clinical depression (and this is on the rise with our high and frequent reliance on social media apps). beyondblue states that there are different types of depression where symptoms can range from relatively minor through to severe, but all can impact the way you feel about yourself. The good news is that depression is manageable and seeking support early is the key to regaining control of your life.

I think at this time of year we can often feel trapped within the infinity of tasks we would like to complete as the year comes to an end and a new one approaches.....sometimes just thinking of the list you would like to complete feels exhausting and unachievable...feeling defeated? Perhaps your path needs a guide?
