Face-to-face counselling in Melbourne and Australia-wide via telehealth
Professional and personal Melbourne counselling services
In Ben’s online therapy and Melbourne-based practice, he offer a wide range of evidence-based approaches to help address a range of situations and mental health concerns. In particular, to help manage anxiety, depression, trauma, insecurities, issues with self esteem, and significant life events.
Stress Management Strategies & Techniques
It's normal to experience occasional stress in response to life's challenges. However, when stress becomes chronic or overwhelming, it can take a toll on your mental and physical health. We offer stress management services to help you develop the skills and tools you need to cope with stress in a healthy way.
Anxiety & Generalised Anxiety Disorder
Our anxiety management services are tailored to meet your individual needs and goals. We offer evidence-based approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based interventions, to help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns, manage physical symptoms of anxiety, and develop healthy coping strategies.
Melbourne Counselling & Therapy For Depression
In therapy, you'll have the opportunity to explore the root causes of your depression and learn how to manage it in a healthy and effective way. You'll also develop practical tools and techniques to use outside of therapy so you can continue to manage your depression long after your sessions have ended.
Lack of Meaning, Direction & Purpose
We offer a variety of approaches, such as existential therapy and positive psychology, to help you explore your values, goals, and priorities, and to develop a deeper understanding of your sense of purpose and meaning in life. You will discover and work on what is important to you, what you value, and what brings you joy and fulfillment
Fears, Insecurities & Low Self-Esteem
Fear and low self-esteem can be significant barriers to living a fulfilling life. They can hold you back from pursuing your goals and engaging in meaningful activities. At our therapy practice, we offer services to help you overcome your fears and develop a more positive sense of self.
Navigating Change & Significant Life Events
The loss of a loved one, a major life change, or a difficult relationship can leave you feeling overwhelmed and unsure of how to move forward. We offer services to help you process your emotions, identify your strengths, and develop a strategic plan to move forward.
Relationships & Conflict Management
Relationships can be a source of joy and fulfillment, but they can also be a source of stress and conflict. In therapy, you will explore the dynamics of your relationships, identify patterns of communication that are causing conflict, and learn practical skills and strategies to improve your communication, set boundaries, and navigate difficult conversations.
Panic Attacks & Panic Disorder
Panic attacks and panic disorder can be debilitating and cause intense feelings of fear, anxiety, and physical discomfort. Our services for panic attacks and panic disorder are individually tailored to help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns, develop relaxation techniques, and gradually confront your fears.
Trauma & Post-Traumatic Growth
With the right support and guidance, it's possible to not only heal from trauma but also experience post-traumatic growth. You'll work through the emotions and effects of your traumatic experience in a safe and supportive environment, develop practical coping strategies, gain insight into your emotional and behavioral responses, and build resilience and post-traumatic growth.
