How Counselling Can Help

We all struggle at times. We can lose connection with what matters most — with the people we love, with our sense of purpose, with ourselves. Sometimes we carry difficult memories or feelings that are hard to name, let alone resolve.

If you are experiencing depression or anxiety, even basic things — sleeping, eating, concentrating, showing up at work — can feel effortful. Counselling works by helping you reconnect with what is important, understand what is getting in the way, and build a more workable relationship with your experience.

PsychMaps offers professional counselling and psychology that focuses on:

• Working collaboratively toward your goals for change
• Clarifying what matters most to you in life
• Motivational support to live in line with your values
• Evidence-based strategies to address unhelpful patterns of thought, feeling and behaviour
• Extensive experience with alcohol, drug and mental health concerns
• Support to process difficult childhood or traumatic experiences
• Mindfulness-based approaches including CBT, ACT and Schema Therapy
• Incorporating current research on stress, trauma, the brain and body
