We’re excited to introduce two wonderful additions to the mental health side of The Wellness Place — Elysia Bullen, our registered counsellor and psychotherapist, and Valentina Ukich, our registered psychologist. Together they bring decades of experience, warmth, and a truly whole-person approach to counselling and psychology in Bassendean.
Body image concerns are among the most common yet least openly discussed sources of psychological distress. For many people, discomfort with their appearance is accompanied by deep feelings of shame, self-criticism, and disconnection. In a culture that places high value on appearance, the body can become a focal point for judgment rather than care. For those struggling, body dysmorphia counselling Bassendean residents can access offers a path toward compassion and healing.
The loss of a mother can be one of the most profound and life-shaping experiences a person encounters. This is because the bond we share with our mothers from the womb lays the template for our first experience of love and connection. When that connection is severed, whether due to complications at birth, illness or death of the mother, or compromised maternal mental health, we can experience a strong disconnection from ourselves and our place in the world. Seeking mother loss counselling Bassendean families can access is an important step toward healing.
Recognising when grief counselling can help. Support for loss, bereavement and complicated grief at The Wellness Place Bassendean.
