Hi, I am Leanne, a registered psychotherapist and counsellor and owner of Hopeful Souls. I am passionate about helping people to help themselves. Improving their mental health and assisting them to navigate difficult times in their lives. Above all I like to instill in clients that there is hope for them.
Psychotherapy is a therapeutic process that uses different evidence-based modalities, including talking therapies to bring about change in a person’s life, by changing thinking patterns and improving coping skills. It raises self awareness and provides insight into behaviours that may be physically and emotionally harmful or self-destructive.
Psychotherapy sessions can also help with providing skills, tools and education to bring about change in a client’s anxiety and stress.
The therapeutic relationship between therapist and client is a vital component of the process that develops over-time where the client feels trust with the therapist, and is supported enough to open up their feelings and emotions.
A psychotherapist listens, analyses and imparts their knowledge in a non-judgmental way to help the client face-up to deep rooted behavioural patterns that no longer serve them.
Everyone can benefit from understanding more about their life and what factors have been influencing the choices that they may have made in the past.
If you are experiencing stress and anxiety, lack of self-confidence, or detrimental behaviours, do explore my services. I work with clients locally in Adelaide and beyond in person and via online sessions.
