A space to be still, refill
and grow forward.

When anxiety, low mood, trauma or life pressure leave you feeling overwhelmed, &pause offers counselling for children, teens, adults and couples.

Based in Kingston, Tasmania, with online counselling available across Australasia, &pause offers a calm, supportive approach to counselling and therapy – a space to slow down, reflect on what is happening beneath the surface, and grow forward with greater confidence.

be still & refill

When life feels too heavy.

You may be holding it together on the outside while feeling anxious, exhausted or unsettled underneath. You may be caught in old patterns, disconnected from yourself, or unsure how to respond to what life is asking of you.

At &pause, there is space to stop for a moment.

To be heard with care.

To make sense of what is happening. 


To rest, restore and begin growing forward with greater confidence.

Support for what you are carrying.

Counselling offers space for the things that are difficult to name, difficult to change or simply too heavy to carry on your own.

Low mood and disconnection

When you feel flat, stuck, numb or distant from the person you want to be.

Trauma and past experiences

When earlier experiences continue to shape how safe, connected or in control you feel now.

Life changes and pressure

When work, family, relationships, parenting, grief or major change have left you unsure of where to begin.

Relationships and couples counselling

When you want to communicate more honestly, understand recurring patterns or rebuild connection.

Support for children and teenagers

A calm, supportive space for younger people to understand their feelings, feel heard and grow through what they are navigating.

Pause. Understand.
Grow forward.

You do not need to arrive with everything neatly explained.

Counselling starts by bringing what feels hard.

Pause

Book an initial session and bring whatever is taking up space in your mind, body or life.

Understand

Explore what is happening for you beneath the surface in a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space.

Grow Forward

Build insight, practical support and a clearer sense of what comes next, at a pace that feels right for you.

A chance to be still and refill can create room to notice what has been building, reconnect with what matters, and grow forward in a way that feels true to you.

Support that meets you where you are

Liz draws on evidence-informed counselling approaches to help clients understand what is happening, build practical tools and create meaningful change as they work towards greater wholeness.

Counselling with Liz is shaped around you, your needs and your journey, rather than fitting your experience into a one-size-fits-all process.

Depending on your situation, sessions may draw on approaches including:

  • Polyvagal Theory

  • Somatic Therapy

  • EMDR

  • ACT

  • Creative Therapy

  • CBT

Counselling is not here to “fix” you.

It is a space to feel more grounded in yourself, more connected to what matters, and more able to respond to life with clarity, confidence and care.

Be Still & Refill.

A little more space can change a lot.

When life leaves little room to pause, anxiety can become louder, exhaustion can become normal, and old patterns can quietly shape more of your days.

 

&pause offers a different kind of space.

 

A space to step back from the pressure of the moment. To rest and restore. To be still, refill, and grow forward with more clarity and confidence.

You may be tired of carrying more than anyone can see.

Take the first step.

You may feel worn down by anxiety, caught in the same arguments, shaped by things that have happened, or unsure why life has begun to feel harder than it should.

You do not need to have it figured out before reaching out. Sometimes the first step is simply making room to pause.

Book a session with Liz to make space for what is happening, be met with care, and begin growing forward with greater confidence.

A confidential space to be heard.

Counselling asks you to share parts of your life that may feel personal, heavy or hard to explain.

At &pause, your story is held with care from your first enquiry.

What you share is held respectfully and confidentially, with clear information about how your details are handled and the limits of confidentiality.
