Counselling Service for You

At Counselling Service for You, we do more than just listen to your story. People in Sylvania, New South Wales, who come to us feeling depressed and hopeless, leave with significantly improved mental health and overall wellbeing.

As a counsellor and psychotherapist with over 30 years of experience, Gaye applies a focused, practical, and evidence-based approach to counselling. To assist you in reaching your therapy goals, she uses applied neuroscience and Clinical Hypnotherapy along with a person-centred approach.

She offers her professional services to people from diverse walks of life, especially busy individuals, because she realises that people face a variety of life challenges and may feel the need for professional guidance.

Many people have difficulty scheduling an appointment because travel is involved, there is limited availability during business hours, and other difficulties arise. Gaye offers flexible remote and online counselling sessions over Skype and Zoom.

She can show you how to bring about positive changes to your mental health and wellbeing if you are feeling unwell, looking to change, but unsure of where to begin.
