Mairead Ashcroft
| My name is Mairead (Ma-raid) and I am a Counsellor and Art therapist based at the Louis Joel Arts and Community Centre?. I hold a Bachelor in Counselling, Diploma in Art therapy, Certificate III in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultural Competency. I am a current Post Graduate Student furthering my formal qualifications at the Australian College of Applied Psychology, studying a Masters in Counselling and Psychotherapy. My specialities are working with PTSD, assisting recovery for adult survivors of childhood trauma, anxiety, grief and loss, somatic and psychogenic disorders. I also have experience in drug and alcohol related issues, relationships, depression and attachment. In our one hour sessions together, clients might address topics such as fears and phobias and other mental health concerns, sexuality, risky or difficult behaviours, conflict, or body image. I am practices in modalities such as mindfulness, full body focusing, narrative therapy, Jungian dream work and other person centred therapies. In 2013, I was honoured to receive a City of Hobsons Bay Inspirational Women's Award, for my volunteer work with survivors of adult sexual abuse. |
