Couples Counselling in Frankston, VIC

Relationships can be both a beautiful and challenging journey that holds a mirror to both the best and worst parts of yourself. Relationships teach you tough lessons: that things aren’t always light and happy, you won’t always like your partner, and you certainly won’t be the same couple you were when you got together. Every relationship needs constant re-iteration and new chapters.

When you lean into your relationship and tend to it with thoughtfulness, curiosity and care, you can absolutely come out stronger and better. I’m here to help you do that, in a gentle, relatable and warm-hearted way.

Relationships are the most complex part of our human experience, and we’re here to get real about what we want and what we deserve

Quest for a Good Night’s Sleep

It’s 2am and after a few restless hours, your up for the night. Or perhaps your haven’t even gone to bed yet. While people often joke about not getting enough sleep, insomnia can have severe consequences. From drifting away behind the steering wheel, to problems with concentration, memory, or a weakened immune system, insomnia can become life-threatening if it persists too long.

What to do? Here is one important fact. Our brains are designed to work with the sun, light means wake up! When going to sleep, it’s essential to avoid all light emitting screens at least one hour before bed. Yes, that means no computers, tablets or smart phones in bed. It may seem like a small thing, but even a little light can have an effect on sleep.

If the above doesn’t work, it may be time for medication. Melatonin is available over the counter and will help you fall asleep. However, don’t expect it to work all night, it doesn’t last long enough in the body. Benadryl is commonly used, but this is not recommended long term due to the side effects. If your tired of struggling, it’s time for professional help. We offer insomnia treatments that work to help you get the good Night’s Sleep you have so desperately been needing. Do not experience any more sleepless nights, schedule a consultation today

Truth About Depression

Depression, or major depressive disorder, is one of the most common psychiatric conditions in the United States. Research shows that one out of four women may have depression during their life. However, while people struggling with depression often are simply told to “get over it,” or to “try harder,” the reality of this condition is far more complex, and requires a holistic treatment that takes into account every influencing factor.

If you find yourself struggling to engage in regular tasks like eating (or, alternatively, could start overeating), sleeping throughout most of the day (or struggling to sleep), or being unable to stay focused during work, school, or social functions, you may be experiencing depression. Depression that is ignored, judged, or stigmatized, without proper treatment, empathy, and understanding, can lead to symptoms worsening.

If you have depression, don’t be afraid to seek help. Treatment, if applied holistically, does help, and it’s been shown that almost 70 percent of people treated for depression will see improvement in their symptoms. Don’t wait, schedule a consultation today
