and Couples Therapy

Joanne Meldrum, Counsellor and Registered Mental Health Nurse.

"The essence of wellness is understanding your Authentic self"

Joanne Meldrum is a Counsellor and specialised Psychiatric Nurse.
Joanne offers a wide range of evidence based talk therapies and holistic healthcare models.
The tools that Joanne provide are based on the four dimensions of
well-being - mind, body, social and bio-energetic. These dimensions are carefully considered when facilitating the work with clients, with the intention of improving self-awareness, confidence and compassion. The framework that Joanne uses is effective and productive.

Joanne facilitates therapeutic conversations that opens up space for explorations of what is important, what you accord value to, and what reconnects you back to yourself.

When we make meaning of conflicting emotions, behaviours and thought processes, and acknowledge the effect of the pattern, we reclaim value.

Joannes approach is to provide a framework and skills to practice that influences self-acceptance and responsibility to face new aspects of loving by teaching self regulation skills and creating a greater awareness of
Your Authentic Self.
