Mental Health Issues Australia

Kitty facilitates sessions for individuals online through Coviu (an encrypted online platform) and in-person in the Northern Rivers. Kitty’s therapy room is in Lismore, and she also offers a mobile service within the Northern Rivers with sessions being run at various locations including schools, early childhood centres, supported residential facilities, social service agencies, neighbourhood centres, medical facilities and corrective services. 

Kitty develops and runs group sessions using drama therapy techniques specialising in working with clients with additional needs and mental health issues, including grief and loss, trauma, depression and anxiety. The duration of the sessions and length of the programs can be developed in conjunction with the needs of the group or facility.

Programs are designed to assist the participants to work through personal issues, including negative feelings, thoughts and behaviours, challenging life issues and difficult life transitions. Along with tailored programs she also runs the program Seasons for Growth (grief and loss for primary-aged children and adolescents), Sex and Ethics (for teens and young adults), the Life Story Program (for clients in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction) and a Boundaries Program (for adult women). For information about these programs or to discuss the needs of your group please contact Kitty directly.
