Are you currently struggling with something personal? Are you unhappy with certain aspects of your life? Do you live with Anxiety or Depression? Do you simply need someone to talk to? Here at Lake Macquarie Counselling & Psychotherapy, I aim to assist clients to discover the root cause of these issues and more. Within an environment of safety, understanding and support, clients are able to take time out from the pace of everyday life and explore issues that are affecting them personally. Clients can use this time to find reasons for why they are the way they are, and why they may react to certain situations in the way that they do. With time to slow down, and with the use of mindfulness techniques, these issues can be explored on a deeper mind/body level helping understanding and new information to be gained. Sometimes, people can see therapy as intimidating. They may feel unsure or uncomfortable about taking that first step towards facing their fears and reaching for personal growth. It is my hope to provide a down-to-Earth, relaxed and safe space for people to feel comfortable in. I want to help my clients not just function in life, but thrive.

Counselling, coaching and consulting. A dynamic, trauma-informed and person-centred private practice on the Central Coast NSW. Empowering futures. Founded by Tania Gorry.

We grieve that which we have valued very much and then lose. Dealing with loss is a very individual, mostly private, and even at times, lonely experience. I have worked as a loss and grief counselor for many years, and for 13 of those years, I was a bereavement counselor in palliative care. I know that those experiencing loss need understanding, support, patience, and acknowledgment in a safe and non-judgmental environment. And I know that grief has no timeframe and that grief takes as long as it takes. Not only do we grieve when someone close to us dies we also grieve for other losses. For example, the Covid pandemic has been a time of loss and grief. The loss of lives, as well as loss of lifestyles, has had an impact on many. While for some who are grieving, having their emotions validated and explained provides clarity after just one session, for others who are feeling overwhelmed and experiencing great sadness and aloneness and finding it is a struggle to get through each day, additional sessions may be required. I also provide hypnotherapy on request. As a professional member of the Australian Hypnotherapy Association and the Australian Society of Clinical Hypnotherapists, I have been practicing hypnotherapy for over two years. Hypnotherapy utilises the heightened awareness of the hypnotic state to help a person focus on a problem more deeply. During the hypnotherapy session, a person becomes deeply relaxed and is guided through a process to induce a trance-like state that helps them focus their minds and respond more readily to suggestions. Hypnotherapy has had success with people experiencing anxiety and depression. When dealing with grief and loss, hypnotherapy helps create a state of deep relaxation, which allows access to the subconscious mind, and can help to teach the brain to focus on the positives shared with others rather than on the sadness of grief. Illustrated Projective Cards is another therapeutic tool that I have had success with. Illustrated Projective Cards is a method filled with imagination and creativity that promotes very precise and focused results that provide lasting, life-changing insights. I am also a Certified Quit Smoking Coach. When it's so easy to find information on how to quit smoking, you may ask, 'why would anyone want a quit smoking coach?' The fact is that most tobacco users need a coach because quitting smoking is much more than just knowing what to do. It's about helping the smoker discover how to move from knowing to doing. While the guidelines on how to quit smoking are similar for almost everyone, the barriers that hold each person back from quitting are unique and personal. As the person's quit smoking coach, I provide the backup needed to break through these barriers.

Offering a safe, non-judgmental psychotherapy and counselling service in the Singleton shire, using skills and knowledge in Emotional Freedom Technique a.k.a (tapping) and nutrition to support you into becoming a healthier person emotionally, mentally, spiritually and physically through the therapy process. Focusing on the here-and-now relationship can help us discover belief patterns, perceptions, and thoughts that impede personal growth. I'll help you explore your physical, spiritual, and emotional experience to help you boost clarity while creating coping skills that will work for you. I feel that problems we have in our lives are important messages from 'a deeper part of the self that is trying to be heard, perhaps parts that have been ignored, shunned and abandoned. In my work I help to make contact with these sometimes problematic and often hurt parts by building a relationship in which there is safety, trust, and freedom. My experience has been that this brings surprising insights, shifts and healing. As our difficult places become known and slowly accepted they become integrated and we become more whole, actualised, and present as people. As a therapist, I partner with my clients as we explore present difficulties or past traumas. Through a supportive therapeutic process, my clients discover and build upon their own inner strengths and resources, which they learn to rely upon outside of therapy in their daily lives.
