Who am I?
Hi!
I’m Tahnee, your Counsellor and Youth Specialist.
It’s normal to want to know who you’re talking to, so here’s a bit about me:
My background includes:
Management
Youth Employment
Youth Workshop Facilitation (including stress and anxiety management)
Child Safety (residential)
Mental Heath First Aid Teacher (Youth and Community)
In addition to being a Qualified and Registered Counsellor, and a member of Certified Practicing Counsellors Australia (CPCA), I also hold the following:
Diploma of Counselling
Play Therapy Certification
Positive Parenting Certification
Positive Psychology Certification
Youth Mental Health First Aid Teacher Accreditation
I bring a calm, less clinical approach to my sessions to make sure you and your child feel at ease, and create an environment where they feel safe to talk. I use different types of strategies to assist young children and teenagers in expressing and talking about their emotions in ways that feel more comfortable and natural to them.
No judgement, just Real Talk.
