Meet Elyse
Hello. My name is Elyse and I am a passionate holistic counsellor and psychotherapist here to support people in living their unique version of a meaningful and fulfilling life. People thrive when they embrace both their inner and outer worlds, have a sense of an inner direction, and feel they have the resources to manage the predictably unpredictable nature of life. The world can be loud with a plethora of external demands and advice, however being able to tune inwards and work with what is present, results in challenges being better understood and consciously navigated from a more integrated position.
You may find some seasons of life easy to flow with, or feel lost, overwhelmed, or disconnected during other phases. Maybe you have never really felt you have known who it is you truly are and what it is you stand for and desire in life. I believe that there is more than one way to do things, and that it is never ‘too late’. I see my role as supporting you to connect to, and integrate what is transpiring within so you can access and grow into your fullest potential, moving towards a life aligned with your truest and most authentic self.
Background
Elyse has a Masters Degree in Holistic Counselling and Psychotherapy, with a particular interest in working with the full-spectrum of human beings and life itself. She is a registered member of the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia, the countries peak professional registration body for tertiary-qualified counsellors and psychotherapists, and is eager to normalise proactive emotional and mental wellbeing.
Elyse’s collaborative therapeutic approach is primarily person-centred, attachment-focused, and trauma-informed, with a truly holistic frame of view. Which essentially means you can expect a deeply compassionate, attuned, and transpersonal experience. Her life-long curiosity in human behaviour, holistic health, and personal transformation combined with her background working as an adult speech pathologist within many medical settings brings together a unique mix of both interpersonal and clinical skills. Living, playing, and working at this awe-inspiring intersection where the tangible meets the metaphysical aspects of the human experience, offers a rich and expansive merging of two worlds, and beyond.
