When you get to a place where you understand that love and belonging, your worthiness, is a birthright and not something you have to earn, anything is possible.

In counselling sessions we’ll work together to understand the challenges you are currently facing, and work as a team towards your goals.

I am a Member of the Australian Association of Psychologists and the EMDR Association of Australia and am trained in various therapeutic modalities. I have a special interest in EMDR, a therapy focused on assisting clients in their recovery from traumatic or stressful events that continue to impact their wellbeing, whether these events are recent or historical, and I am an Accredited EMDR Practitioner. I am Medicare approved and am happy to provide sessions in person or via Telehealth or Videoconferencing at this time.

Online Psychological Counselling With Chantelle
Whether you are commencing therapy for the first time, or it is something you have undertaken before, I am empathetic and understanding toward how daunting this can be. I offer a gentle and compassionate space where you can feel comfortable to explore your feelings at your own pace. My approach is non-judgemental where your experiences and values are respected. I am a registered psychologist with experience working with clients in private practice, government & NDIS sectors. I am passionate about helping you overcome your challenges so you can work toward your goals and reach your potential.
I enjoy working with ages 15+ with presentations of anxiety, panic, social anxiety, phobias, depression, stress, low self-esteem/confidence, body image difficulties and personal development. I use a range of evidence-based techniques tailored to individual needs so I can provide the most appropriate treatment to each client.
I understand how busy life can be and therefore I am currently providing appointments via telehealth (video and telephone). This mode of therapy can be beneficial to clients who have limited availability & for those who may be uncomfortable travelling to our office for face-to-face appointments. I have weekday availability on Tuesday & Thursdays and the flexibility for both before/afterhours & weekend appointments if required.
I am a Medicare approved provider accepting referrals for Mental Health Care Plans. I hold general registration with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulatory Board (AHPRA) along with membership with the Australian Psychological Society (APS) and Australian Association for Psychologists (AAPI).
