Who We Are

​

Gentle Mental is a group of counsellors who are passionate about wanting to give back, donating their time and expertise by offering affordable and uncomplicated counselling sessions. Our Counsellors come with years of experience across multiple fields and disciplines, who are passionate about helping those that may otherwise not access support.

At Gentle Mental, we offer telephone and online (telehealth) counselling sessions that are person-centred, recognising that each client is the expert in their own life. Our sessions provide a gentle, entry-level approach to therapy, giving clients a positive experience as they take their first steps into the world of talk therapy and mental health support. As a counselling service, we do not diagnose, assess, or medicate — our focus is on practical, supportive guidance in a safe and non-judgmental space.
 

Ranging from 30 to 90 minutes and available weekly, fortnightly, or monthly, our sessions are tailored to each client. Moving away from short-term, generic approaches, we provide personalised support to increase self-awareness, highlight strengths, and build confidence, courage, and understanding. Our experienced counsellors can assist with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, trauma, social and relationship challenges, school or work stress, and other life difficulties.
