Services Offered:

At The Yellow Couch Counselling, we provide a confidential mental health counselling service for individuals experiencing complex mental health challenges. Our work is guided by evidence-informed approaches within our scope of practice, and includes psychoeducation and psychosocial support planning for a wide range of issues.

We draw on a variety of evidence-based and solution-focused modalities, selecting interventions most likely to create sustained and positive change. Our practice is trauma-informed, person-centred, holistic, and culturally competent, ensuring that every client receives compassionate, tailored support. We also offer multi-session psychosocial support planning to best suit your individual needs.

Sessions can be one-off to address immediate concerns, or short- or long-term depending on your goals. It’s entirely up to you how often you’d like to attend and what you’d like to focus on.

The Yellow Couch Counselling would like to acknowledge the traditional lands of the Boon Wurrung/Bunurong People of the South-Eastern Kulin Nation, and pay my respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We would also like to acknowledge Aboriginal people as Australia’s first peoples and as the traditional owners and custodians of the land on which we work and live.

The Yellow Couch Counselling values diversity, safety and respect. We are committed to providing a safe, culturally appropriate, and inclusive service for all people, regardless of their ethnicity, faith, disability, sexuality, or gender identity.
