Providing culturally affirmative Counselling and Interpreting/Translation services to the Deaf community.

Approaching Deaf Mental Health through a holistic lens

Mind

We use evidenced based and culturally affirmative techniques to support you in developing a healthier relationship with your mind. Most importantly, we provide tools in Auslan so you can continue caring for your mind outside of the therapy room.

Body

We use trauma-informed yoga, breathwork and somatic movement to support you to reduce stress, manage triggers and find safety in the present moment. These tools are a great way to support Deaf fatigue and advocacy burnout.

Systems

Together we take a wider look at the systems you live in including family, community and society and look at how we can strengthen relationships within these systems.
