My approach is to LISTEN EMPOWER GUIDE, based on the ‘teach a person how to fish’ idea, I share strategies, tips and tools so that the client can better manage anxiety, stress and depression. My main counselling modality is strengths based counselling helping people learn to love themselves more, improve their self esteem and uncomplicate life’s challenges. I’m ultimately here to empower you and equip you with the tools for meaningful, long-term fulfilment. There’s no judgement and no jargon – just simple, compassionate and practical assistance tailored to you and your life goals.

Narelle Hudson

Bachelor of Counselling, Australian Institute of Professional Counsellors
Years in practice: 14
Offers:  Remote Therapy

As a counsellor, I believe people are ultimately the experts on their own lives. I see my role as one to walk alongside clients & support them by: hearing their story, offering suggestions or new information & validating their strengths & resilience. My aim is to help clients feel heard, understood, validated and supported to be the best version of themselves possible. I understand one counselling model does not fit all as everyone is unique. I am a person-centred therapist; although I often incorporate other modalities, depending on client needs, which may include CBT, SFT, ACT, MI or EFT. I predominantly work in the areas of: grief and loss, suicide and bereavement, relationships, mental health and addictions.
