About

Wellbeing

Wellbeing is the combination of feeling good and functioning well. People who experience wellbeing feel positive emotions like contentment and happiness, and have a degree of control over their lives as well as a sense of purpose. Wellbeing looks and feels different for everyone.

How counselling improves wellbeing

Situations that cause stress and sadness negatively impact a person's wellbeing. Counselling is the process of talking about and working through distressing emotions and personal problems to help you become stronger and more self-aware. A counsellor can help you to clarify issues, explore options, develop strategies and manage difficult feelings. Depression, fear, anxiety, grief and hopelessness are some of the most debilitating emotions that we can experience. Counselling can help you overcome these symptoms, recover motivation and have a more positive outlook. You are the expert in your life and I'll work with you to help you heal from your pain and move forward to where you want to be in life.

Here for you

The first step towards wellbeing can be the most difficult one to take. Softfall Counselling is a safe space, free of judgement, where you'll find acceptance and support with your wellbeing journey. I have not met anyone who regretted engaging in counselling, but I have spoken to people who wished they had. I encourage you to book in a free 15 minute consultation to discuss your unique situation.

Softfall Counselling is managed by Julia Banks, a qualified counsellor and member of the Australian Counselling Association. Counselling services are conducted remotely via video conference and telephone. If you are interested in biopsychosocial therapy or prefer in-person counselling, I offer walk and talk sessions.
