I’m Charlotte, a registered counsellor with the Australian Counselling Association (ACA), and the founder of Grounded Actions Counselling, based in Boyne Island in Central Queensland. I work with people aged 16 and over, and I welcome clients from all walks of life, either online or in person (in Biloela only at this time).

My approach is calm, collaborative, and action-focused, which means that we don’t just talk about what’s hard, we work together on practical steps that you can take in your day-to-day life which feel like a step in the right direction for you.

I have a particular interest in supporting people experiencing addiction and substance use challenges, ADHD-related concerns, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and chronic pain. I draw on evidence-based approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), DBT-informed skills, motivational interviewing and person-centred counselling to tailor support to your goals and preferences.

Whether you are looking for brief support around a specific issue or longer-term counselling, our work will be guided by your values, at your pace, in a non-judgmental and genuinely down-to-earth way.
