About the practice

Ballast Wellbeing is a virtual psychotherapy and counselling practice serving clients from all backgrounds and walks of life.

Our clinical work draws on years of experience treating anxiety, post-traumatic stress, school and academic stress, work stress and burnout, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and more. Our work is practical and goal-directed, with clear treatment goals set early and progress reviewed as we go.

Treatment is informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Trauma-Focused CBT, within a biopsychosocial framework.
