Creating authentic lives and relationships

Telehealth Counselling  Melbourne & Australia Wide

Individual and relationship counselling for when your feeling stuck, struggling with self-worth, people-pleasing, overthinking, boundaries or the patterns you keep finding yourself in.

Counselling that feels more like a real conversation.

At Shaking Up Perspective Counselling, I offer online individual and relationship counselling across Melbourne and Australia. This isn't about counselling feeling clinical or like someone is sitting there analysing you. It's about having real conversations that help you understand yourself, challenge some of the stories you've been carrying, and start seeing things from a different perspective.

Stuck in your own head and overthinking everything?

Putting everyone else first and wondering where you fit in?

Questioning yourself, your worth or the decisions you make?

Feeling overwhelmed, disconnected or just not quite yourself?

Repeating patterns you understand…but still can’t seem to change?

Knowing something needs to shift, but not really knowing where to start?

Are you feeling…

Counselling can help you understand and shift…

  • Self-esteem, self-worth and self-confidence

  • People-pleasing and difficulty setting boundaries

  • Overthinking and negative patterns of thinking

  • Self-sabotaging behaviours and patterns you keep repeating

  • Anxiety, overwhelm and low mood

  • Shame, guilt, resentment and anger

  • Feeling stuck, lost or unsure of what you want

  • Relationship patterns, conflict and breakdowns

  • Fear of change and difficulty making decisions

  • Feeling disconnected from yourself, your values or the life you want

I’m not here to sit quietly, nod in the right places and send you away with a worksheet.

I’m curious. I’ll ask questions. I’ll gently challenge you when it might be helpful, and we’ll look at what’s actually going on underneath the patterns you keep finding yourself in.

Counselling with me is conversational, genuine and collaborative. There’s room for the hard stuff, but there’s also room for humour, honesty and being human.

Real conversations. Real relationships. Real transformations.

What sets Shaking Up Perspective Counselling apart?

Hi, I’m Rachel

I’m Rachel Joll, a registered counsellor and the person behind Shaking Up Perspective Counselling.

I’m warm, curious and pretty down-to-earth. I don’t believe counselling needs to feel overly clinical or formal to create meaningful change. Sometimes we’ll sit with the hard stuff, sometimes I’ll challenge the way you’re seeing something, and sometimes we’ll probably have a laugh.

More than anything, I want you to feel like you can turn up as yourself, without having to have the right words, know exactly what’s wrong, or have it all figured out before we start.

WHAT I OFFER

Individual Counselling

For when you’re tired of overthinking, putting everyone else first or questioning whether you’re good enough. Individual counselling gives you space to understand the patterns behind how you think, feel, respond and work out what you actually want for yourself.

Relationship Counselling

Designed to help to nurture deeper connections and rediscover harmony, relationship counselling can help improve communication, enhance intimacy and achieve better understanding.

CLIENT LOVE

“Rachel has been amazing.”

I have been going through some personal issues and she has helped me overcome them. I have become more confident in myself and I highly recommend her.

READY WHEN YOU ARE

Ready to move forward with your life?

You don’t need to have everything figured out before you start.

Maybe you know exactly what you want to work on. Maybe you just know something doesn’t feel quite right anymore.

Either way, we can start there.

Individual and relationship counselling is available online across Melbourne and Australia, so you can have sessions from wherever feels comfortable for you.

Sometimes the first step is simply having the conversation.
