New Clients

Azelene’s niche is mood disorders, such as anxiety, depression, being present and stress reduction through mindfulness. As a survivor of intimate partner violence, her passion is to work with women of all ages. Azelene specialises in tweens and teens aged 12 and 18 and young adults.

Teaching her clients skills that would help them with boundaries and saying NO when needed is an important aspect of her work. Azelene has a lot of life experience and this is an aspect of her work where making a positive and powerful connection with her clients is paramount.

She is very passionate and empathetic towards her clients and what they bring to a session.

Consultation Bookings

In our first consultation, I will take the time to learn more about you and your reason for seeking counselling and what goals you might have for our time together. I will use this opportunity to collaborate with you regarding what type of therapy might best suit your individual needs, based on your personal history and intent. I will also talk to you about the fees structures I have available. After the first consultation, you will receive a client intake form to complete.

Counselling consultations might involve therapeutic conversations, art therapy, walk-and-talk therapy, or other types of experiential activities to help you discover more about your psyche, problematic relationships, past trauma, and personal dilemmas.  These sessions generally last 45 minutes and will be most helpful to you if they are scheduled regularly (usually once per week). My approach in each session will likely change over time, as your needs change.

I specialise in children & teens. Occasionally will see adults. If the fit is not right I will refer you to a professional I work with regularly.
