Welcome to Cassowary Coast Counselling, a private psychotherapy and counselling practice that I established in 2016.
Hello, I'm Geoff, a qualified Gestalt therapist who works 1:1 with teens and adults. I provide in-person therapy from a private and comfortable space in Mission Beach. While I have a Master's degree in Gestalt therapy and a Diploma of Counselling, I value the therapeutic importance of bringing my life experience and my authenticity to our work together. I look forward to making contact with you.

Relational, Creative and Present Focused
My goal is to safely and respectfully support a lively awareness building process for individuals, and in doing so, facilitate conditions where one can experience meaningful growth and change.
I practice a holistic approach that values an authentic, present-centred and experiential stance that is grounded in humanistic and existential psychology.

"I was most fortunate to be put into contact with Geoff at a time in my life when I felt totally stressed, and distressed, about every aspect of my life. The tipping point came while working in a hostile environment and knowing that if I didn’t ‘do’ something quickly, I was going to explode like a volcano and rain bitter ash down upon everything and everyone around me! Geoff was calm, and kind, and listened to me in a way that no-one has for a very long time. Just being ‘heard’ made a huge difference to how I felt internally, and he allowed me the time to express myself candidly and without judgement, and to see a way forward that was not only possible, but entirely do-able. For this I will be forever grateful, and I urge anyone who is feeling lost (or just stuck), to reach out to Geoff and ask for help. You will own your own life once more"

And consider...
There does not have to be anything wrong in your life to benefit from counselling. Indeed, therapy can help sustain wellness, and/or be a valuable support or catalyst for further growth and change.
