Online Counselling Brisbane & Gold Coast
Some of the most meaningful conversations I have with clients happen on screen. Online counselling brings the same care, the same experience and the same practical support into your own home, whether you are in Brisbane, on the Gold Coast or anywhere in South East Queensland.
Counselling that comes to you
If you have been searching for an online counsellor near you in Brisbane or on the Gold Coast, here is the good news: with online counselling, the right counsellor is always near you. Whether you are in the Brisbane CBD, the northside or southside suburbs, Logan, Ipswich, Surfers Paradise, Burleigh, Robina or anywhere in between, your counsellor is one click away.
Life in South East Queensland does not always make room for a drive across town. Between work, family and the traffic between Brisbane and the coast, getting to an appointment, parking, and sitting in a waiting room can be the very thing that stops you getting support. Online counselling removes the distance. We meet by secure video, face to face on screen, and the work we do together is the same work I do in my rooms. You are seen. You are heard. And you do not have to go anywhere to get there.
Who is online counselling for?
Online sessions suit many people across Brisbane and the Gold Coast, for many different reasons. It may be right for you if:
- The drive, the M1, or a working day makes getting to appointments one job too many
- You are a parent, and arranging care around appointments is a juggle you do not need
- You value privacy, with no waiting room and no chance of bumping into someone you know
- You or your partner travel for work, work FIFO, or you are currently living apart
- Illness, injury or mobility makes travelling to appointments difficult
- You simply prefer the comfort and privacy of your own space
Whatever brings you here, the door is open. It just happens to be your own.
What can we work on together online?
Almost everything I offer in person is available online to clients in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast. That includes:
- Couples, relationship and marriage counselling, including sessions where you and your partner join from different locations
- Individual counselling for stress, anxiety, grief, life transitions and personal growth
- Family counselling, bringing family members together even when they live apart
- Pre-marriage counselling for couples preparing for the next chapter
- Sex therapy, where the privacy of home can make sensitive conversations easier to begin
How does it work?
Book your appointment
Choose the session length that suits you, 60 minutes or 120 minutes, and book online using the buttons on this page.
Receive your secure video link

Click the link at your appointment time
The session runs in your web browser. There is nothing to download or install.
We begin, just as we would in the room
Your first session is a relaxed, judgment-free conversation about what has brought you here and what you would like to be different.
What you will need
- A quiet, private space where you feel comfortable talking
- A reliable internet connection
- A computer, tablet or smartphone with a camera and microphone
- Headphones if you would like extra privacy, though they are not essential
That is all. If you can make a video call to family or friends, you can do online counselling.
Is meeting in person ever a better fit?
Sometimes, yes. Some people find it easier to open up in the room, and some situations are better supported face to face. If you are not sure which is right for you, we can simply talk it through when you get in touch. My rooms are at The Realm in Barton, so if you are ever in Canberra you are welcome to meet in person, and for most of my Brisbane and Gold Coast clients, online is simply how we meet.
If you are in crisis or immediate danger, please call 000, or Lifeline on 13 11 14. Online counselling is not a crisis service.
