About Paige

I am an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker who has a Master’s degree in Social Work and Bachelors degree in Psychological Science. I have worked with a range of people in various roles within homelessness, acute and community mental health, and sexual assault. 

My passion is supporting people who have been impacted by trauma or have mental health concerns. I believe that no one will go through life without experiencing emotional challenges and see therapy as something that everyone should engage in.

Qualifications

I have over 8 years experience working within a diverse range of settings including sexual assault, mental health and homelessness.  I have spent the last several years working as a sexual assault counsellor at the Centre Against Sexual Assault, supporting victim survivors across the lifespan as well as supporting children under the age of 18 who have used harmful sexual behaviours. Additionally, I have experience  working in acute mental health, working with individuals who have mental health concerns, gaining a rich understanding of the impact mental illness can have on a person's life.

As an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker, I am committed to maintaining the highest standards of professional practice. To retain my accreditation, I am required to complete ongoing professional development and demonstrate continued competence in evidence-based practice. I value lifelong learning and regularly undertake advanced training to ensure I provide the highest quality care for my clients.

Services

Counselling; process of talking about and working through your personal worries or concerns to help you gain confidence and overcome worries. Counselling can guide clarifying emotional barriers and develop self-awareness.

I believe that therapy is for everyone; no matter what your concerns or problems, therapy will help you recover and grow, leading a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

At The Space Consulting and Counselling we seek to:

  • Ensure you feel comfortable and safe, providing a purposeful therapeutic relationship 

  • Offer a non judgemental and welcoming sanctuary for people to work towards emotional wellness

  • Provide a confidential space to understand and work through the impacts of traumas

  • Support you with your worries or current concerns

Let's talk

How I Work

I rely on evidence-based interventions to promote positive changes in people lives. 

Upon contacting The Space Consulting and Counselling I will make contact with you for a 15 minute consult call to determine what your needs, goals and concerns are, and to ensure that I will be the best fit for you as your therapist.

I will give you the opportunity to express your desires for counselling and commence building on the therapeutic relationship within the call. This ensures we are familiar with each other before the first session, helping you feel more comfortable before we meet in person.We will then book an appointment where I will further understand your needs for support and commence the therapeutic process.
