Realising Possibilities

Welcome to Realising Possibilities, located in the heart of Townsville City on Flinders Street. Our institution is a point of interest and a health establishment, dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and young people overcome life's challenges and find healing.

If you have experienced trauma, are struggling with anxiety and stress, or dealing with major loss, our therapy sessions are designed to provide you with the confidence and tools to regain peace of mind and equilibrium. Our sessions take place in a quiet, private, and comfortable environment, where you can expect empathy, understanding, and the opportunity to develop new ways of thinking and change unhelpful behavior patterns.

In addition to psychological therapy services, we also offer hypnotherapy as a treatment for anxiety, addictions, and phobias. Our range of services extends to group programs in mindfulness meditation, workplace training and development, and clinical supervision for mental health practitioners.

Helen, our experienced social worker, brings over 30 years of career expertise to her private practice. She specializes in therapeutic treatment of complex trauma and chronic mental health issues across all life stages. Helen also provides clinical supervision to social workers, counselors, and other allied health professionals. Her diverse career experience spans statutory child protection, international community work, maternal child health, sexual assault and trauma counseling, therapeutic group work, and social work education.

As a Masters graduate of the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Helen's knowledge and skills are further enhanced by her role as a faculty teacher at the Australian College of Applied Psychology (ACAP) and her involvement in the School of Social Work at James Cook University (JCU).

At Realising Possibilities, we aim to reduce the impact of past trauma, address current problems, and improve positive thinking. We also offer support for clinical practice through critical reflection, accountability, and professional development. Our services provide relief from stress, anxiety, and feelings of overwhelm.

We accept Medicare rebates for GP referrals with a Mental Health Care Plan, allowing for up to 10 sessions. Additionally, we provide services under Employee Assistance Programs (EAP), DVA, Workcover Queensland, and Victims Assist. Concessions are available for students and those on a pension, and self-referrals are always welcome.

If you are seeking a safe and supportive environment to embark on your healing journey, Realising Possibilities is here to guide you every step of the way. Contact us today to discover the possibilities that await you.
