Your Practitioner Kacey
Works with a diverse range of people who are experiencing moderate to significant mental health and wellbeing impacts. These major life events and/or areas of focus for wellness might include but are not limited to, transitions, separation, grief and loss, trauma-related risk and healing processes, enhancing self-confidence and esteem, therapeutic play, stress, routines, behaviour management, anxiety and depression.
Kacey applies a range of trauma informed practices, mindful techniques, solutions focused and narrative approaches, engagement with games, art and crafts and other tactile interventions, emotional regulation exercises and acceptance and commitment therapy to help the individual achieve their counselling goals. Through the implementation of person-centred and strength-based methods, the individual is supported to recognise their skills, personal qualities and take the steps towards creating the future that is important to them.
Kacey’s practices are facilitative of behavioural change, the development of sustainable coping skills and strategies, building resources and networks, improving social and family connections, empowerment for choice and decision making, positive routines, goal setting and attainment, and treatments to address mental health symptoms and improve quality of life.
Kacey has over 15 years of experience working with children, young people and their families in the early childhood sector, protective and family services, youth and adult homelessness, intense case management, school counselling and working with disengaged students.
Kacey supports students through school-based funded initiatives providing therapeutic and behavioural interventions, wellbeing enhancement and staff consultation. Kacey can run mental health group work sessions within selected schools based on their needs and requests.
Outreach services can be provided in the home, school environments and other agreed upon spaces. Rooms will need to be child safe and also ensure client privacy can be maintained. For individual counselling out of the office, a risk assessment must be completed and clients will be required to attend for an in-person appointment prior to outreach being available.
