Coastal Care Services & Counselling

Located on the Sunshine Coast we offer counselling and other therapies that embraces the connection between physical and mental wellbeing using a holistic approach. Dana has been active in this space for some time now and would like to be able to provide a higher quality service, so thank you to everyone that has supported Coastal Care Services in the STA environment over the last 18 months. It ha

s given us an opportunity to meet and work alongside some amazing humans and we wish you all the best. My experience in disability, youth, adult, education and training has allowed me to work alongside some of the remarkable children, young people, adults and their families from the Gold Coast to the Sunshine Coast. I believe in a holistic approach which encompasses all aspects of the person, including support networks, environment, existing and potential barriers. More importantly, my practice includes working from person centred and strengths-based approaches, as they are key to assisting individuals in realising and fulfilling their potential, and achieving their goals. These approaches consider the person’s values, existing strengths and ensures they are included in the decision-making process by acknowledging themselves as the expert in their lives. My practice allows young people and families the opportunity to explore issues around their wellbeing such as anxiety, depression, school refusal, children struggling with big emotions, and many others while engaging in physical activity and other strategies.
