“Choose kindness and love in your heart, and let them guide your thoughts, your words, and your actions—towards yourself and others.”
If traditional talk therapy hasn't brought the relief you were hoping for, somatic therapy may offer a different experience.
By working with both the mind and the body, it helps gently release stored stress, tension, and the effects of trauma while supporting your nervous system to feel calmer, safer, and more balanced.
Through body awareness, breathing techniques, and mindful movement, you can experience deeper healing that goes beyond talking alone.
If you're ready to feel more grounded and connected to yourself,
we would be honoured to support you on your journey.
We offer sessions in person in Sunrise Beach and Gympie (QLD),
and online video sessions for people interstate and overseas.
If you’re ready to explore an embodied path to healing,
you’re warmly invited to get in touch with us at Holistic Therapy & Counselling.

Meet my new assistant… ART 🐾
He’s a Bordoodle (Border Collie x Mini Poodle for those wondering!) with a big personality and an even bigger heart.
ART is a beach lover, a playful soul, and an expert in affection—seriously, he gives the best cuddles. 💛
He can join us in the sessions if you choose to, and it’s amazing
to see the calm, comfort, and smiles he brings to people.
Safe to say… he’s a natural at this work ✨
"I believe everyone holds the capacity to heal—and with the right support, meaningful and lasting change is always possible"
I have visited gun 10 times this year (2026), mainly to learn the Buteyko breathing technique.
During the visits, I also learned a number of great grounding tools along the way.
I have seen a number of counsellors during my time, but I have learned so many more practical tools from Gun. Enjoyed learning this breathing technique to help calm the nervous system.
I would highly recommend using Gun, as she teaches you so many tools you can use for life.
