How to Find the Right Therapist Online in Melbourne
Let’s be honest—looking for a therapist online can feel overwhelming. Scrolling through websites, comparing profiles, and trying to figure out who you’ll feel safe with—it’s a lot. And when you’re already navigating change, stress, or emotional overload, it can feel like just another thing on your plate.
Maybe you’re a young woman leaving school, unsure of who you are or what’s next. Maybe you’re a new mum wondering when you’ll feel like yourself again—or you’re quietly struggling with the baby blues. Perhaps you’re finding parenting harder than you expected, or your kids are growing up and the house suddenly feels quieter, leaving you asking, “What now?” Whether you call it life changes stress, post-natal depression, empty nest anxiety, or just a bit of a wobble, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out alone.
I’m Laura from Boost Wellness, and I offer counselling in Melbourne that’s real, relatable, and completely centred around you. My work supports women across all kinds of life transitions—from school leavers and new parents to those returning to work, caring for elderly parents, navigating identity shifts, or searching for meaning in a new chapter. Sometimes, I’m walking beside women who are dealing with all of these things at once.
It's All About the Right Fit (how to know I am the one for you)
Therapy is deeply personal. It’s not just about qualifications (though I have those!). It’s about connection. You need someone who gets you—someone who’s lived through life, not just studied it.
As a parent, wife, daughter, friend, former student and empty nester, I bring real-world experience to our sessions. I understand what it means to be pulled in different directions, to lose sight of yourself in the chaos, or to stand at a crossroads wondering what to do next.
Whether you’re adjusting to life after school, settling into motherhood, or rediscovering yourself in midlife, I offer a space that’s non-judgmental, grounded, and fully yours.
What Makes My Counselling Consultations Different?
At Boost Wellness, I take a holistic approach to therapy in Melbourne. That means we don’t just talk about the immediate challenge—we explore your whole life. Because your mental health doesn’t live in a vacuum. It’s connected to everything: your sleep, your stress, your movement, your joy, your sense of purpose.
Together, we’ll gently explore:
Sleep hygiene – because a tired mind is an anxious mind
Stress management – to help you feel calmer and more capable
Movement and stillness – both are essential and need balance
Nutrition – small changes can improve mood and energy
Joy and connection – vital for emotional wellbeing
Purpose – especially powerful during life transitions
This kind of support isn’t just therapy—it’s a chance to rebuild from the inside out.
Who I Work With
You might be surprised by how many women feel lost at times. Here are just some of the people I help:
School leavers dealing with uncertainty about the future
New mums managing exhaustion, emotional changes, or identity shifts
Parents feeling overwhelmed by the demands of family life
Women returning to work, juggling home and career
Empty nesters wondering what comes next
Women in transition, craving clarity, confidence, and connection
Whether you’re looking for women’s mental health support in Melbourne, life changes therapy, or a women’s life coach, my role is to help you come back to yourself—with compassion and purpose.
You don’t need a diagnosis or a dramatic reason to reach out. If something feels off, that’s reason enough.
How to Know If I’m the Right Match
As you scroll through therapist profiles, consider:
Do I feel seen or understood, even just reading this?
Does this person have both professional knowledge and personal insight?
Does their approach feel human, not clinical?
Will this space support all aspects of me, not just the hard stuff?
If you’re nodding along, we might be a good fit.
