Charley is a registered psychologist and an associate member of the Australian Psychological Society and the Australasian Society for Traumatic Stress Studies. She has experience as an adult, adolescent, child and couple therapist and is also a trained trauma specialist. She utilises mindfulness on a regular basis and enjoys seeing people transform as they find calm in the midst of chaos.
Charley has a calming effect and knows when to be warm and when to be more direct. She has the flexibility to be different ways with different people. She uses stories and anecdotes to help you understand concepts or to let you know she has a deeper insight into your experiences. She is results-driven and uses therapies that are both powerful, safe and based on scientific evidence.
Charley will take you on a journey of self-exploration, investigation, reflection, offering different perspectives and to help you see things in a new light or things as you haven’t seen before. If you’re ready for positive change in your life and ready to try new things, she will gladly guide you on your path.
She deals with a wide range of issues, specialising in relationship counselling. Charley also sees clients for parenting, helping couples to reconnect after an affair, addressing imbalances in relationships, reduce arguments and fighting by helping with more effective ways to address difficult issues, porn addiction or porn issues, sex therapy, pre-marriage counselling, anger, depression, anxiety, stress, sleep, grief and loss.
She also has a special interest in adolescents and trauma and has helped many overcome later obstacles created by childhood or adolescent sexual or physical abuse. Due to her insight into couples, she sometimes brings up your issues before you do.
Charley is caring and passionate about helping people to reach their potential. She provides a safe and supportive environment in which clients can process distressing emotions and learn new skills to lead healthier, happier, more fulfilling lives.
She is available for Skype sessions for out-of-town clients.
