Koa Counselling is about counselling that works for you--whether that means talking things out with someone who can listen, getting perspective by having thoughtful questions asked, goal-setting, addressing relationship issues, or wanting to explore different ways of being in the world.
Relationships
Attachment to others is the most basic human need. Sometimes we experience challenges in our relationships, which can be distressing. It's not necessary to delve into the "story" and rehash all the problems. Rather, a focus on the interactions between partners, or "the dance", has been shown to be most effective at reducing distress and creating positive connection.
Dreamwork
The study of dreams has diverse cultural and historical roots. Everyone dreams--men, women, babies, even animals. What are our dreams telling us? It's different for everyone! With guidance, it's possible to explore your dreams to glean insights and understanding.
Walk & Talk
Don't feel like sitting inside a room for your counselling or Dreamwork session? We can get outside!
Hypnosis
Hypnosis is a state of relaxation and concentration which allows for positive changes and empowerment of the individual.
Koa Counselling
The Koa tree originates from Hawaii--a beautiful hardwood used to make instruments, canoes, surfboards, furniture and jewellery.
"Koa" in Hawaiian means: strong, brave, fearless, and confident. The name conveys a balance of gentle nature and bold adventurer.
Koa Counselling is just that: a gentle approach to addressing life's challenges by encouraging bravery, and inspiring confidence,
