About Laura Davis
Counsellor in Caulfield
Counsellor for Women Navigating Life
I’m Laura Davis, an accredited counsellor based in Caulfield and the founder of Boost Wellness. I work with women across Melbourne—and beyond via telehealth—to help them feel more like themselves again, especially when life feels anything but simple.
Maybe you're a school leaver unsure of what comes next. Maybe you're a new mum wondering when you'll feel like you again. Maybe you’re returning to work after years at home, or navigating life after the kids have left. These transitions can stir up stress, self-doubt, anxiety, or even a quiet sense of being lost. You're not alone in that—and you don't have to navigate it alone either.
At Boost Wellness, I support women of all ages who are dealing with the invisible weight of expectations, transitions, and uncertainty. My counselling practice is warm, grounded, and designed to help you feel safe, seen, and supported.
Outside of counselling, I find balance through reading, cooking, dancing, music, and spending time with family. My favourite way to recharge is a day outdoors, soaking up the sun and immersed in nature—especially at the beach. I encourage my clients to discover what brings them joy and fulfilment as part of their own journey.
A Whole-of-Life Approach to Counselling in Melbourne:
You are more than your symptoms, and therapy should reflect that. My holistic approach means we look at all aspects of your wellbeing—because mental health is influenced by everything: your story, your sleep, your relationships, your nutrition, your values, and your sense of purpose.
Together, we explore:
Sleep hygiene: A tired mind can’t process clearly
Stress management: Find calm amid the chaos
Movement and stillness: Both are powerful in balance
Nutrition: Small shifts can lift mood and energy
Joy and connection: What lights you up?
Purpose: Especially important during major life shifts
This isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. It's real, practical, and deeply personal.
Therapies I use at Caulfield Counselling
I use a range of evidence-based therapies depending on your needs, and each session is shaped by you. You're in the driver's seat:
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): To shift unhelpful thought patterns
Solution-Focused Therapy: For forward movement and strength-building
Mindfulness and Grounding Techniques: To calm anxiety and bring clarity
Strengths-Based Practice: To rediscover what already works within you
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT): To support emotional regulation and resilience
Why Laura?
Counselling isn't just about techniques—it's about trust and connection.
As a former student, parent, wife, daughter, friend, professional, and now empty nester, I bring more than qualifications to the therapy room. I bring life experience.
I understand how it feels to be pulled in many directions, to question your identity, or to quietly carry the weight of "having it all together." I've supported women through school leaver anxiety, new motherhood, postnatal challenges, empty nest syndrome, career transitions, and everyday overwhelm.
I also bring over 25 years of experience in wellbeing and leadership, including:
Former CEO of a wellness clinic
Current mentor at Headspace (supporting youth mental health)
Counsellor at the Mental Health Foundation of Australia
What sets me apart is my ability to hold space without judgment. I help you unpack the messy middle—so you can rebuild with clarity and confidence.
Who I Work With
Young women navigating the transition from school to adulthood
New parents facing emotional overload, postnatal depression or identity shifts
Women returning to work after time away
Carers of ageing parents balancing multiple responsibilities
Women experiencing empty nest syndrome or divorce
Anyone seeking women’s mental health support in Melbourne
No issue is too small. If it matters to you, it matters to me.
