How is your mental wellness?

At Wisdom With Whiskers we believe person’s mental health is as important as physical health. Depression, anxiety and numbness are indicators of a person's mental health.

The death of a loved one, or the loss of anything that is significant in your life a pet, a relationship, a job, may cause a person to experience grief/loss. Grief/Loss can make a person feel lost and also full of conflicting emotions - including anger, grief and hopelessness.
Therapist Conal Healy specialises in grief and loss. He is a Level 2 registered member with the Australian Counselling Association.

Conal Healy is an insightful and down to earth counsellor. He imparts his ‘whiskered’ wisdom with equal parts compassion and clarity. I’d recommend him for counselling for grief and trauma. Thank you Conal.

"I was having undiagnosed anxiety attacks when I started therapy with Wisdom with Whisker's I am now anxiety free. I couldn't understand why I felt so awful all the time, thought it was just my depression, but the two together were driving me insane. Twelve months on and I have tackled quite a few monsters, cleared out negative voices, that were stopping me moving forward, just keeping me stuck. I achieved some goals, got over some fears and stagnant thoughts. I have now made goals for this year and look forward to smashing them. I don't expect it to be easy and there will be some bumps along the way, but I will get there..."

Speaking with you yesterday, helped me see even more, that yes, I've had an extremely hard time with tremendous loss in four souls, and yes I'm grieving, and yes i feel helpless, and that's OK, but..... yes, I'm strong, and yes, I'm going to get back up, and yes.... you know what.... I'm going to do that right now!
