I provide person-centered counselling and psychotherapy services for young people (12 years up) and adults. In my Beyond Talk Counselling practice I integrate conventional and expressive-creative therapy approaches to help people uncover personal strengths, insights, possibilities and new perspectives that allow them to make empowering changes in their lives. I use a non-directive, empathic approach that empowers and motivates my clients in the therapeutic process. I work from the assumption that every human being strives for and has the capacity to fulfill their own potential. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6009081f9c2d8f3e5162bb5e/1612163358815-IOX1ZQAV1LKJG7HEG9UB/silvia-cuasante-boardwalk+beach.jpg About - How Frauke works In my private practice I provide a non-judgemental and accepting environment where I meet clients with empathy and unconditional positive regard to help facilitate change.

Why so many boardwalk and nature images on my website? Boardwalks in nature remind me of my childhood home in northern Germany, next to a fjord bordering on Scandinavia. To me boardwalks represent the concept of life as a journey of exploration and discovery, of growing into and becoming who we already are. As a clinical counsellor and psychotherapist I walk beside my clients on their journey. I lean in to help them overcome and transform life’s challenges and struggles into opportunities for growth and healing. I believe that everyone has an inner or core Self that is whole, wise and resourceful. We all have a purpose or an intelligence to unfold, and everyone wants meaningful relationships to express that purpose. In my Beyond Talk Counselling practice I help people connect with their unique qualities and core Self, so they can express their inner potential and purpose in life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6009081f9c2d8f3e5162bb5e/1612315398591-BEJT5B10I1QFQSCXZ4O2/Crayon+basket+with+drawing+board.jpg Home - What is Beyond Talk Counselling As a psychotherapist I combine the benefits of expressive therapies, such as Interactive Drawing Therapy with appropriate talking therapies. I encourage clients to use drawing implements such as crayons, pastels and coloured pencils, when drawing out inner aspects, such as thoughts, feelings, impulses and sensations, as well as talking and writing about these inner representations on an A 3 page. This process allows unconscious issues to emerge, become conscious and be safely represented on the page. Once the unconscious becomes conscious and deep-seated emotions become unstuck, people are much more capable of talking and reflecting about their problems, feelings and thoughts. https://beyondtalkcounselling.au/contact daily 0.75 2021-11-05 https://beyondtalkcounselling.au/privacy-policy daily 0.75 2021-02-04 https://beyondtalkcounselling.au/services daily 0.75 2026-01-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6009081f9c2d8f3e5162bb5e/1612328459265-1RR7AS16ORAEC1AK978C/simon-john-mchaffie-J8IaISZkt9g-unsplash.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6009081f9c2d8f3e5162bb5e/1612336679275-YF4YS8SBALH6C4VADZAA/dimitri-houtteman-young+people-unsplash.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6009081f9c2d8f3e5162bb5e/1612336485769-MDKODD383PUFOP572475/together-2450090_1920.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6009081f9c2d8f3e5162bb5e/1612337707125-F8P0S6HC28YN7GJ3Y52J/Crayon+basket+with+drawing+board.jpg Services - Interactive Drawing Therapy (IDT) IDT is a unique way of working with words, images and feelings to enable clients to gain a better understanding about themselves and the issues they are presenting in the therapy session. The page becomes a mirror for people, helping them see themselves more objectively from new perspectives, and facilitating insight, inner resourcefulness and profound change. IDT is my favourite therapy modality. With this gentle and fun therapy approach I can meet my clients where they are and put them in charge of what they want to talk, write and draw about while I guide the process and ensure safety.
