About Life Talk
Counselling
Life Talk Counselling is a professional counselling service for when you need to talk about life.
My name is Kerrilee. I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with 14 years’ experience. I have worked with children, adolescents, individuals and families providing counselling support as well as working with a bereavement organisation specialising in grief, loss and trauma.
We all find life hard to manage and cope with at times. It can get confusing and difficult to navigate. I love to support clients through whatever challenges they are facing. I use a person-centred approach, which means that you are the expert in your story and it is my role to provide a supportive, positive, safe and caring response so that together we explore strategies and techniques tailored to your needs.
I love working within the ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) modality, encouraging people to explore difficult thoughts and feelings, rather than fighting, ignoring or feeling judgement from them. It uses strategies and practices to be present in the moment, to explore values and focus on meaningful living, with commited actions, even when life is hard.
Qualifications
- Bachelor of Social Science (Counselling)
- Master of Counselling Practice
I have Clinical Membership with PACFA (the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia) and abide by their Code of Ethics.
I attend regular Personal Development and continue to have Supervision, as required by PACFA standards.
Membership No. 28433
Life Talk Services
Life Talk Counselling specialises in grief, loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, life changes and transitions, stress management, healthy boundaries, spiritual challenges, emotional crisis and chronic health conditions.
50 minute counselling sessions are provided via Telehealth (video) or Telephone, in the comfort of your own home.
Evening appointments can be made upon request.
If using telehealth, a Zoom link will be sent via email before your appointment. Please make sure you have downloaded the zoom app on your device before your session time.
Payment can be made at the time of booking or within five days of your appointment.
The first session is to hear your story and to work together to set goals and strategies that you are comfortable with. It is important in this session that we define your therapy goals and expectations and actively work together to set measurable outcomes.
During each session we will review these goals and modify them as necessary. Counselling sessions can be booked online and can be discontinued at any time as there is no obligatory timeframe.
50 Minute Sessions = $120.00
