People keep saying the same thing.

One conversation in, most clients say they’ve finally been understood.

“I truly felt heard for the first time in all my life and deeply understood.”

— Simone

“When I came to Christina I was drowning in darkness… now I’m finally thriving again.”

— Shannon

“Due to her mediumship I was able to see core issues that I wasn’t able to recognise before.”

— Ellie

If you are here, trauma might be showing up as…

  • Feeling triggered by things that seem small from the outside.
  • Shutting down, freezing, people-pleasing or becoming hyper-alert.
  • Carrying memories, body sensations or emotions that still feel current.
  • Struggling with trust, boundaries, safety or self-worth.
  • Knowing you need support, but fearing being pushed too fast.

And even in a bright, growing city, the past does not always stay where you left it.

How Christina works

Safe, paced trauma support.

Trauma work needs care. Christina does not force disclosure or push catharsis. Sessions are paced around safety, consent and what your system is ready to process.

Safety first

You stay in choice. Nothing is forced, rushed or extracted.

Body-aware depth

Support for how trauma shows up emotionally, mentally and in the nervous system.

Root-level healing

Christina works with the pattern underneath survival responses, not just the symptom.

Common questions

Before you book.

If your question is not here, the free 15-minute assessment is the easiest way to ask it.

Isn’t counselling expensive?

In life everything has a price, yet we often spend on others and overlook ourselves. Counselling can look expensive on the surface, but most people attend around 6 to 12 sessions with the occasional booster afterwards — and unlike medication, it addresses the root cause rather than only the symptoms. Christina keeps her rate lower than many counsellors so it is easier to meet consistently, which makes real change more likely, and her main goal is simply to help you heal. Discounts are available for those who are genuinely financially challenged. The better question is often: how can you not afford to feel like yourself again?

Do I need a referral?

No. You can book directly. The free 15-minute assessment is a simple way to ask questions and decide whether the work feels right.

Are sessions online?

Yes. Sessions are held online and by phone for people right across Brisbane — from the inner city and West End to Chermside, Carindale, Logan, Ipswich and the bayside — so you can do the work from a private, familiar space.

Do I need to come into a Brisbane clinic?

No. There is no Brisbane clinic to visit. Christina works with Brisbane clients online and by phone from anywhere in Australia, so there is no cross-city commute and no waiting room — just support that fits around work and family.

What if I do not know where to start?

That is completely normal. You do not need a polished story. Christina will help you begin with what is most present and work gently from there.

How many sessions will I need?

It varies. Some people feel a meaningful shift quickly; others prefer a steadier process. There is no minimum package and no pressure to continue.

What is the easiest next step?

Book the free 15-minute assessment. It is no pressure, no commitment, and gives you a chance to meet Christina before deciding.

Will I have to retell everything that happened?

No. Trauma counselling does not require detailed retelling to help. Christina focuses on safety, pacing and how the past lives in the present, and you share only what feels right, when it feels right.

Is online trauma counselling safe and effective?

Yes. For many people it is preferable — being in a familiar, private space supports the sense of safety trauma work needs, and removes the stress of travelling across Brisbane while already activated.

Trauma work can be gentle.

Start with a free 15-minute assessment and decide whether Christina feels safe enough for the next step.

Trauma support across Brisbane

You can build a bright new life in Brisbane and still carry an old one.

Plenty of people come to Brisbane for a fresh start, drawn by the warmth, the growth and the easier pace. But a change of city does not always change what the body is still holding. As Brisbane grows busier and more pressured, trauma can sit underneath the optimism, in frontline and healthcare workers, in people rebuilding after something hard, and in those who moved north hoping distance would be enough.

  • First responders and frontline workers carrying what the job leaves behind.
  • People who moved to Brisbane for a fresh start the move alone did not deliver.
  • High-functioning people who look settled and still feel unsafe inside.
  • Anyone whose body still braces long after the danger has passed.

Sessions are held online and by phone across Brisbane and all of Australia, so support fits around your life. You can also explore all Brisbane counselling services.

Safe enough to do the work

Trauma work without sitting in cross-town traffic.

In a city sprawling and growing as fast as Brisbane, getting to an unfamiliar clinic can be a barrier of its own when you are already on edge.

Christina is a qualified counsellor with formal training in psychology and social work, and trauma-aware sessions are paced so you stay in control. The work is held online from wherever already feels safe to you, and nothing is pushed before you are ready.
