Five-star Google reviews
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.”
“When I came to Christina I was drowning in darkness… now I’m finally thriving again.”
“Due to her mediumship I was able to see core issues that I wasn’t able to recognise before.”
If you are here, anxiety might be showing up as…
- Constant overthinking and mentally rehearsing every outcome.
- A tight chest, shallow breathing, panic or a body that feels on edge.
- Avoiding conversations, decisions or opportunities because they feel too much.
- Feeling exhausted by trying to look calm while everything inside is racing.
- Knowing the anxiety has a deeper root, but not knowing how to reach it safely.
And when you are expected to stay across everything, switching off can feel impossible.
How Christina works
Grounded support for the mind, body and deeper pattern.
Anxiety is not treated as something to simply control. The work is to understand why your system is bracing, what it is protecting you from, and how to create enough safety for real change.
Clinical safety
Practical counselling support for anxiety, panic, stress and nervous-system overwhelm.
Intuitive depth
Christina listens for the deeper pattern underneath the racing thoughts and body symptoms.
Steady regulation
Sessions help you build calm from the inside, not just perform calm on the outside.
Go deeper
Want the deeper explanation of anxiety counselling?
The service page is intentionally shorter now. If you want to understand what can happen inside the work, from reaching out to the first session and the quiet shifts afterwards, the anxiety blog goes deeper without making the page feel heavy.

About Christina
The counsellor behind Soul Counselling.
Christina Feyes is a counsellor with training in psychology, social work and human services, and over a decade of experience supporting people through difficult life seasons, working with clients across Australia.
Her work brings together clinical knowledge, grounded counselling practice and intuitive insight, so sessions can hold both the practical and the deeper emotional or spiritual layers of what you are experiencing.
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 Canberra — from the inner north and south to Belconnen, Gungahlin, Tuggeranong and the Woden valley — so you can do the work from a private, familiar space.
Do I need to come into a Canberra clinic?
No. There is no Canberra clinic to visit. Christina works with Canberra 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.
Is online counselling discreet enough for sensitive roles in Canberra?
Yes. Sessions are private, held from your own space by video or phone, with no public waiting room. Many Canberra clients value that discretion.
Can I book sessions around demanding work hours in Canberra?
Yes. Because sessions are online and by phone, Christina offers early-morning and evening times that fit around government and professional schedules.
You do not have to keep living on high alert.

Anxiety support across Canberra
High-pressure work and a transient city can keep you wired.
Canberra runs on demanding, high-stakes work. Public service and government deadlines, the discretion that comes with sensitive roles, frequent moves and postings far from family, and long cold winters all keep a lot of people wired under a composed surface.
- Public servants and professionals carrying high-stakes deadline pressure.
- People in sensitive roles who value real discretion when seeking help.
- Those posted here or moved for work, far from family and old friends.
- Parents and workers across the suburbs running on empty.
Because sessions are online and by phone, you get discreet support from a quiet room anywhere in Canberra — no public waiting room and no commute across town. You can also explore all Canberra counselling services.
Discreet support that fits a Canberra week
Confidential help, on your schedule.
In a city of sensitive roles and demanding hours, discretion and timing matter. Sessions are held by video or phone and can be booked early or after work, so you can get help privately, without a public waiting room or a gap in the day.
Between sessions, Christina helps you build practical ways to settle your nervous system when it spikes — before a meeting, in the car, lying awake at night — so the tools fit your real Canberra days.
