Who are we?

  • Tegan.

    Counsellor & Teacher (she/her)

    I am a tertiary trained and registered Counsellor with the Australian Counselling Association, as well as a qualified teacher. Working in both schools and youth centres over the last fourteen years, I have developed a skillset that allows me to connect with young people to create non-judgmental spaces where they can express their thoughts and emotions openly.

    I now work with children, teens and women, as I understand the specific challenges that these groups may face and enjoy tailoring our sessions to meet their unique needs.

    I adore working with people from diverse backgrounds. In particular I pride myself on holding space for LGBTQIA+ and neurodiverse people, this is a space where I not only welcome you to be yourself, but I encourage it!

    Whether people are looking for someone to provide support during transitions, tackling relationship issues, or your self-esteem needs a little TLC, my gentle guidance and holistic approach can empower people to develop a deeper understanding of themselves.

  • Andrew.

    Paw-sitive Impact Manager

    With long legs and a belly full of treats, Andy’s past has left him with a deep understanding of life's twists and turns. With his wise old eyes he has a knack for making folks feel instantly at ease.

    Andy's office isn't your typical therapist's couch. It’s more like a cozy dog bed in the corner of the room, where he listens attentively to people's problems (confidentially of course) and sleeps for 20 hours a day.

    Andrew is Paw-fectly Imperfect, he has anxiety and trauma from his past life, he occasionally falls asleep when people are talking to him and his favourite hobby is stealing food from the bench… but that's what makes him Andrew - a loveable, quirky greyhound with a heart as big as his appetite for cheese.

    Andy’s story reminds us that life's best therapists come in all shapes and sizes, and sometimes, they're the ones who teach us to chase joy rather than our own tails.

    *Andrew does not attend all sessions. Please let me know if you’d like a snooter-visor in your session.
