How Our Counsellors Can Help

Our counsellors and therapists are very respectful and welcoming and will call upon a range of different methodologies to help you work through whatever challenges you may be facing.

 

Our counsellors can help you with:

Management of mental health concerns such as depression, stress and anxiety

Acute stressors such as job loss or the death of someone close

Abusive or unhealthy relationships

The stress of long-term illness

Traumatic incidents

Big life decisions

Eating disorders

Sexual abuse

Group Counselling

We periodically run group counselling sessions.

Group counselling is an ideal place to discuss what is going on in your life with the combined insight, clarity and empathy of many people who have a variety of life experiences. These groups are facilitated by qualified counsellors at the centre.

It can be very validating to be a part of group therapy. The experience of group therapy is often like having a bunch of friends cheering you on to achieve what you really want and giving you alternative perspectives and opinions that may broaden and re-shape your world view.

Grief Counselling

You have probably experienced grief at some point in your life and at times it can feel very consuming and overwhelming. Grief can be experienced when we lose a family member, a relationship, a job or even a dream. Grief is a normal human response to loss. During times of hardship, grief counselling may allow you to get through the grieving experience without turning to, or developing, unhealthy coping mechanisms. The relationship we have with grief and the way we process it can make an enormous difference to our lives.

Make an appointment with one of our experienced grief counsellors if you need support processing a loss you’ve experienced.

What Our Perth Counselling Clients Say

I’ve been attending Restful Waters for couples counselling sessions with Valerie Monteiro. My partner and I have been seeing her for over a month now, following a chaotic period where we felt like we were in crisis. Valerie has been a true saviour for us during this time. She’s an excellent counsellor—attentive, intuitive, and consistently communicative. I wasn’t sure what to expect from couples counselling, and it had been difficult to find a suitable person in the past, but from the moment we booked until now, having Valerie as our counsellor has been such a positive experience, far exceeding my expectations. I’m truly grateful.

Amrit has undoubtably improved my life and changed me as a person, even in a short amount of time. She has saved my relationship from the brink of collapse and then focused in on empowering me and getting any anxiety I had under control. She has all the experience and life wisdom you’ll need for any issue or guidance you may need. She is also a genuine, caring and empathetic person who clearly just wants to help people better their lives. Restful Waters is a fantastic setting too as it’s quiet and relaxing, providing the best environment possible. Could not recommend Amrit and Restful Waters enough.

 

~ M. from Byford

Working with Amrit has truly been a life-changing experience. From our very first session, I felt completely at ease, understood, and supported. Amrit has an incredible way of listening without judgment and offers insights that always seem to get to the heart of what I’m struggling with. She provided a safe, compassionate space to explore my feelings, and she helped me develop tools to manage stress, anxiety, improve my relationships, and gain a deeper understanding of myself. I’m grateful every day for the growth I’ve experienced through our sessions. If you’re looking for a counsellor who is skilled, empathetic, and genuinely invested in helping you thrive, I couldn’t recommend Amrit more highly!
