Supportive counselling in Adelaide
Therapy that meets you where you are, no fixing, no judgment, just healing
Do you feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or like you’ve lost yourself while caring for everyone else? Perhaps you’re navigating relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, or the lasting impact of difficult childhood experiences. You may find yourself people-pleasing, striving for perfection, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.
You don’t have to carry it all on your own.
I specialise in counselling for women, offering a warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental space where you can feel truly heard, understood, and supported. Together, we’ll gently heal the emotional wounds that are still impacting your life today, understand the patterns that are keeping you stuck, and help you reconnect with yourself so you can experience greater peace, self-compassion, and feel more like yourself again.
No GP referral required, adult in person and online sessions, NDIS plan and self-managed clients accepted.
Children's & Teen's Counselling
At Alite Mind I offer a warm and nurturing space where children & teens feel truly seen, heard, and supported. As a registered counsellor and meditation teacher, I specialise in working with children & teens aged 5 to 17, helping them navigate big emotions, trauma, life changes, and personal challenges through play based, talk and expressive therapies.
My approach is grounded in curiosity, creativity, and care, always child or teen centred, while also deeply family-focused. I provide a supportive environment where young people can express themselves safely and freely, and where caregivers feel heard. I see therapy as a collaborative process, where we work together as a team to support each child or teen’s growth, resilience, and wellbeing.
Using play, art, sensory tools, sand, talk and storytelling, sessions gently support emotional expression, confidence building, and self-awareness, all at the child or teens own pace.
At the heart of my work is a deep belief in each child’s potential and a passion for helping families reconnect with calm, clarity, and emotional wellbeing.
No GP referral required, NDIS plan and self-managed clients accepted.

Puppets & Play-Based Therapy – Helps children explore thoughts and feelings through storytelling, imagination, and symbolic play.

Tailored Sessions
Each session is child led, this supports the child or teens needs, ensuring they feel supported, heard, seen and understood while working towards emotional resilience, fostering self growth and awareness.
Each child’s therapeutic journey is unique and the level of caregiver involvement will depend on their age and individual needs. As we work together I will tailor the approach to ensure the best support for both the child, teen and the family.
My counselling approach is warm, compassionate, and attachment-focused. I use an integrative approach, drawing on evidence-based emotional therapies, mindfulness, somatic therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) Parts Work to support healing, self-awareness, and lasting change. You're welcome to get in touch to discuss your needs and explore whether we're the right fit.

I recently attended my first guided meditation session with Natalie at Alite Mind, and it was such a positive experience. As someone whose mind is constantly busy, I wasn’t sure I’d be able to switch off, but Natalie created such a calm, welcoming and supportive environment that I found myself settling into the experience much more than I expected. She has a lovely way of holding the space without any pressure, gently guiding everyone through the session. I left feeling calmer, more grounded and looking forward to coming back. If you’ve been curious about meditation but aren’t sure where to start, I’d highly recommend giving Natalie a try.

I completed Natalie's 5 week Restoring You program earlier this year and I can highly recommend it. Each session is guided by Natalie who absolutely exudes warmth and a generosity of spirit that ensures you feel comfortable with learning the various meditation techniques as she guides you through learning useful tools like journalling and quieting the overthinking mind. I have definitely taken the lessons from these sessions and applied them in my daily life. 💗

I feel blessed to have met Natalie in 2022. Through her own lived experiences Natalie personifies the qualities needed to offer the safe, supportive, and caring space through Alite Mind for women, children and teens. For all her professionalism, Natalie is still able to connect, articulate and meet needs in a personable, fun, but real way as she is completely heart centred in all offerings from counselling one on one, workshops, and guiding meditation. She is passionate and a leader in supporting all to shine through their on light. I look forward to spending more time with Natalie and grateful for her support and services.
