Meet Paula: Compassionate Counsellor in Yarrawonga

Hi, I’m Paula, and I’m passionate about helping individuals, families, and couples navigate life’s challenges with compassion and practical support. My journey into counselling began with a personal experience at a young age. It led me into community youth work, and over time, I realised my calling was to help people in a meaningful way, using the tools and techniques I’ve learned through my studies in counselling and behavioural science.

I believe in working collaboratively with each person, tailoring our approach to what best suits their needs. Whether it’s helping someone manage anxiety, address workplace challenges, or build resilience, my approach is always person-centred, strength-based, and aimed at helping people tap into their own unique abilities to overcome obstacles.

Outside of my work, I’m a mum of two, a proud nanna, and a lover of all things food and nature. I have two dogs who keep me active and entertained, and I find peace in swimming in the beautiful Yarrawonga lake. Cooking is a big part of my life, and I’m always experimenting with new recipes to share with my loved ones. I truly believe in the importance of balance and self-care, which is why I’m committed to not only supporting my clients but also finding ways to nurture myself.

Whether you’re facing a specific challenge or simply seeking guidance, I’d be honoured to support you on your journey toward greater well-being.

Support Tailored to You

Individual Therapy

Everyone’s story is unique, and individual therapy offers a safe, one-on-one space to explore what’s going on for you—whether it’s anxiety, low mood, burnout, or life transitions. My approach is collaborative, practical, and grounded in talk therapy techniques that are tailored to your needs. We’ll work together to build clarity, confidence, and strategies that help you move forward in your own time and way.

Family Counselling

Family dynamics can be both beautiful and challenging. Whether you’re navigating parenting, blended family relationships, or shifting roles, family support sessions provide a space to strengthen communication and connection. I work with families to explore what’s working, what’s not, and how to move forward with compassion and shared understanding—always with flexibility and your goals at the centre.

Trauma Support

Experiences of trauma—whether recent or carried over from the past—can shape the way we view ourselves and the world. In trauma support, we gently unpack those experiences using strength-based and present-focused therapies. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach; together, we work at your pace to process, heal, and find new ways of feeling safe, connected, and empowered in your life.
