$120 per session | Private health rebates may apply

P.I.E.C.E. Practices provides parent and caregiver-focused counselling to help families understand and support children aged 0–15 experiencing emotional, behavioural, attachment or trauma-related challenges.

Who Can Access Support?

Counselling may help parents and caregivers navigating:

  • Children's anxiety, fear or emotional overwhelm

  • Behavioural and emotional regulation difficulties

  • Attachment, connection or relationship challenges

  • Family stress, separation, grief or major life changes

  • The impacts of trauma, violence or instability

  • Parenting stress, uncertainty or loss of confidence

What to Expect

Counselling provides a supportive, non-judgemental space for parents and caregivers to better understand their child's needs and strengthen family relationships.

Sessions focus on:

  • Understanding your child's emotions and behaviours

  • Strengthening attachment, safety and connection

  • Developing practical regulation and co-regulation strategies

  • Building parenting confidence and supportive responses

  • Creating greater emotional stability within the family

Josie uses a trauma-informed, attachment-focused and ARC-informed approach (Attachment, Regulation & Competency), recognising the importance of safe and supportive relationships in children's development and recovery.

Sessions are primarily parent and caregiver-focused, with child participation considered where appropriate.
