About Hana

Hi, my name is Hana and I’m a registered counsellor with the Australian Counselling Association specialising in Solution Focused and Narrative Therapies. I hold a master’s degree in counselling from the Queensland University of Technology, where the focus was the practice of social constructionist therapies. This involves an approach that values multiple perspectives, working collaboratively and positioning clients as experts in their own lives. I am passionate about holding a safe space where people can share their stories of their lives. I seek to reconnect people with their own knowledges and skills relevant in addressing what brought them into counselling. My approach is authentic, empathetic, and collaborative.

I work predominantly with adolescents and families to support the children in their lives, in the following areas
