CAN COUNSELLING HELP? Men and women from all walks of life find that counselling helps them to handle their lives more effectively. There is no need to feel embarrassed about seeking assistance. Think of counselling as your extra resource. It is often helpful to talk to someone who is: ** External to your workplace or home life. ** Not involved in the problem. ** Trained professionally to help you to talk about what's worrying you and work through with you how to best cope. YOUR BENEFITS? ** A plan will be designed just for you. ** You will gain new skills that you can take into the future, rather than just helping to solve a current problem. ** You will have direction, new options and feel more in control of your life. ** You will receive professionally prepared notes to reinforce the new skills that you learn. These are at no extra cost to you. WHAT PAST CLIENTS SAY: 'Lynn Williams was able to provide practical strategies for what I considered complex problems (both in my personal and professional life). Her therapy sessions are thoughtful, well researched and always followed up. Lynn's integrity and patience make her easy to talk to. She is a true professional that really gets results'. - RR, (School Principal) ' What a journey! With the help of Lynn, I was able to regain my sense of balance and appreciate the need to nurture both mental and physical well-being. I was able to learn new techniques and strategies that greatly improved my ability to deal with life's challenges. Making that first appointment was only the start of an amazing journey, where I redisovered 'me'. There are so many things that I learnt through our sessions, many of those things I continue to use on a daily basis. One of my achievements is recognising that it takes a lot of courage to tackle some of the issues which we dealt with, particularly when looking at one's own behaviour (which may not be particularly flattering). Some people are never able to do it, so I feel blessed that I made that first call and learnt a lot about myself in the process. Thanks, Lynn.' - MSW, (Marketing Manager) ' As a Police Officer for 26 years, I was 'damaged goods' suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. After consulting, and working with Lynn Williams over a period of 12 months, I was amazed how I was able to regain a 'handle' on my 'real' self. I know that her persistence, patience and professionalism were a major factor in me being able to get back to what I would regard as a normal way of life. I'd have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Lynn.' - DK, (Police Officer) 'Lynn brings to our sessions a vast commercial experience. As I understand it, many psychologists would only have personal working experience in the area of psychology. However, Lynn's earlier career in the fields of Information Technology, Training and Sales, as well as working for major corporations, gives her a clear understanding of the realities of life for anyone in business. While never compromising her role as a psychologist, Lynn is able to offer practical solutions for people in business.' - RJ, (Company Director, Actor) 'Meeting Lynn Williams and being introduced to Cognitive Behaviour Therapy has changed my life completely. I am learning to deal with the things life throws at me in a way that I would never have thought possible.' - AG, (Production Manager) INTRODUCING YOUR PSYCHOLOGIST: Prior to becoming a psychologist, I spent decades in the Information Technology and service industries. My roles included sales, support, management and training. I established my private practice when I was working as a Lifeline Crisis Counsellor. My experience expanded to cover counselling in a private hospital initially conducting groups for clients suffering from Anxiety and Depression. More specialised groups involved working with groups of Vietnam Veterans, Civilians and Police Officers who were suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Their symptoms had resulted from events such as, wartime experience, bank hold-ups, workplace accidents, motor vehicle accidents etc. I am also an accredited Victims of Crime Counsellor. As a result of my corporate experience, you can be confident that I understand the pressures of working in business and this brings extra understanding and value to my psychological and hypnotherapy work. The following are typical of problems discussed by my clients: ** Anxiety and Panic Attacks ** Depression ** Feeling Out of Control ** Career Worries ** Stress at Work or Home ** Sleeping Problems ** Workplace Bullying ** Relationship, Separation or Divorce Issues ** Alcohol Abuse ** Grief, Loss or Bereavement ** Recent or Past Traumatic Events ** Hypnotherapy for - stress, self-confidence, teeth grinding, weight control, smoking, procrastination, pain relief, phobias etc QUALIFICATIONS & PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIPS: Clinical Psychologist (PSY0001049287) Master of Clinical Psychology Post Graduate Diploma of Psychology Graduate Diploma of Psychology Bachelor of Arts (Majors - English & History) Diploma of Clinical Hypnotherapy Member - The Australian Psychological Society Member - The Australian Society of Clinical Hypnotherapists Member - The Australian Association of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy Member - The International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies Member - The Australasian Society for Traumatic Stress Studies Member - Association for Contextual Behavioral Science (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy) I look forward to working with you at my Mosman location.
