Sunshine Coast Counselling
& Online Australia wide
"We need never be hopeless, because we can never be irreparably broken"
-John GreenWelcome to Empowering You Counselling. I am Katrina, a Registered Counsellor providing professional counselling from my private practice nestled in the beautiful Sunshine Coast Hinterland. I offer counselling across the Sunshine Coast, as well as online counselling for clients throughout Australia.
I provide professional counselling for adults and teens aged 13 years and over, with a special interest in anxiety, grief and loss, ADHD, and supporting individuals navigating neurodivergent life experiences - including masking and burnout. My approach is trauma-informed, neuro-affirming, and tailored to your individual needs, creating a safe and supportive space where you can feel heard, understood and empowered.
Life can sometimes feel difficult, confusing or overwhelming, leaving us feeling stuck, exhausted or alone. You don't have to navigate those challenges on your own. Counselling can help you better understand what you're experiencing, develop practical strategies, and move towards greater confidence and emotional wellbeing.
Whether you are neurodivergent or neurotypical, you are warmly welcome at Empowering You Counselling. I offer a range of flexible counselling options to make accessing support as easy as possible.

Therapy Space
My therapy room is private, quiet, and peaceful. It has been designed knowing that you will share many deep emotions, but it represents a place of understanding, hope, and growth. There is off-street parking available.
Interested in walk-and-talk therapy? I also provide options to hold some of your counselling sessions in nature. The Sunshine Coast has many beautiful beaches and local parks, and there are many benefits counselling in the outdoors can have on your mental health
Please advise at the time of your booking if you wish to enjoy walk-and-talk therapy. Please note walk-and-talk counselling sessions can not be booked for your initial appointment.
