Trauma is not what happens to you, but what happens inside you

Leone is our resident counsellor. Her special interest is in providing emotional support for those suffering trauma- induced illnesses and conditions and helping clients not only become aware of the role this plays in their physical health, but also to help sufferers of chronic health conditions and cancer realise their full emotional potential so that their physical self can also heal.

At Mind Medicine, she employs a range of counselling techniques, including strategic counselling and LOGOTHERAPY

(Logo = meaning) to help clients heal through finding meaning. Logotherapy is a "meaning-centred approach which promotes freedom of choice & personal responsibility."

Sarah is our resident social worker and accredited Circle of Security facilitator. Sarah holds a Bachelor in Social Welfare, a Master’s in Social Work and is a full member of the Australian Association of Social Workers. 

Sarah specialises in mental health and addictive behaviours however, her true passion is working alongside children, young people and adults who have experienced complex trauma to provide emotional support and help them realise their full potential and overcome the issues that complex trauma often creates.

Circle of Security is a visual map of attachment.  "Intimate attachments to other human beings are the hub around which a person's life revolves, not only as an infant or a toddler or a schoolchild but throughout adolescence and years of maturity as well, and on into old age. From these intimate attachments a person draws strength and enjoyment of life and, through what he contributes, gives strength and enjoyment to others."
