How I can help
In person and online
Individual Counselling
With genuine empathy, together we will work on the challenges and goals that are important to you, at your pace in a way that is real and authentic to you. This can include navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, changes and transitions, conflict in relationships, grieving and loss, overwhelm and burnout, finding purpose and meaning in your life, personal growth and so much more.
Individual & Group Clinical Supervision
Offering holistic clinical supervision for workers in the social, emotional and community wellbeing space. Including (but not limited to) counsellors, social workers, psychologists, youth and family support workers, case managers, peer support workers and leaders or supervisors working in this space. I work collaboratively, focusing on reflection and meaningful discussion to engage and support you in your valued work.
Family & Couples Counselling
Let’s get those you love together in a safe and collaborative space to work on things that matter most to you. With compassion and connection at the centre, we’ll explore the history and patterns getting in the way of deep understanding. Then with a solutions-based approach, I guide you through strategies and practical tools that assist in shifting the existing dynamic, re-connecting and strengthening your relationships with each other.
Consultancy
With 15 years of clinical experience in diverse roles including leadership and management, supporting multi-disciplinary teams of clinicians in diverse programs, this service offers support for organisations dedicated to continual improvement for the people they care for.

Meet Christina Chen
(M. Counselling. B. Psychology. A.A.Family Studies)
Welcome, I’m so glad you’re here. I'm a Registered Counsellor and Clinical Supervisor, who has worked alongside and supported individuals and families across various settings (community mental health, school counselling, pastoral care, youth and family work, community recovery and trauma work) for over 15 years.
With a relatable and warm nature, I work from a strengths-based, human-centred and solution-focused approach. Besides my love of sunshine and basketball, I’m passionate about supporting clients to identify their goals and dreams and empower them to let go of the things that no longer serve them - taking actionable steps to live out the life they imagined.
Kind Words

“Christina helped me use the tools I already have to find balance and reduce my anxieties in situations that would normally overwhelm me. Christina helped me on my way to being the centred and focused person that I want to be without fear and anxiety taking over. I am forever grateful to her for all that she has helped me with”
Bec
(individual counselling client) -
“Christina has recently supported our family and helped us navigate a period of change. Her gentle approach with children (and adults), understanding and caring nature have been much appreciated. She provides valuable advice and practical tips for overcoming obstacles the whole family can adopt. Christina is professional in every aspect of her business, and I am more than comfortable recommending her services to anyone”
Hayley
(family counselling client) -
“Highly recommend Christina as a clinical supervisor. I had the pleasure of working with her for a year and a half and in that time she was very helpful. She carefully listened to my concerns and queries and guided me with knowledge and kindness. She was present with me and provided a professional and empathetic environment. I always felt safe with her and came out of our sessions feeling better equipped to assist my clients. Thank you, Christina”
