WELCOME to Obsidian
I'm Carolyn (she/her), a Reg. Clinical Counsellor, and owner founder of Obsidian Counselling for Mental Health Well-Being. I created Obsidian with you and our LGBTQA+SB communities in mind, to break down the barriers for our communities in finding and accessing more than 'gay friendly' but queer (LGBTQA+) informed, affirming, accepting, inclusive, holistic, strengths based, person centred and non-medicalising support for our mental well-being.
I offer you a place that is welcoming, and when you're ready, safe to be your authentic Self. Recognising and supporting important times in our lives that are unique to us as LGBTQA+SB individuals such as, questioning (no matter our age), concealing our identity in all or some parts of our lives, ready to 'Invite In' others to our diverse LGBTQA+SB identity, just to name a few. A space that also recognises and acknowledges the impacts that living in a society with cisgender heterosexual norms may have on our mental well-being, and connection to Self and others.
A little about me and my counselling practice:

Fully Online, across Australia

Appointments available Saturday's between 8am and 2pm.

Queer (LGBTQA+SB) informed practice training and consultancy for allied mental health practitioners to upskill their knowledge of the LGBTQA+SB communities to support breaking down the barriers they often face in accessing services and to ensure future generations don't need to experience the same discrimination and stigma those who came before have.

"Your LGBTQA+SB Self is an important aspect of who you are, but may not be the reason you are seeking counselling. Recognising that Gender Sexual-Orientation Diversity does not equal poor mental health, I will focus on your presenting concerns that are impacting your mental well-being." Carolyn
