Support For Adults, Teens and Workplaces
Hi - I’m Cheryl. Welcome to Chat it Out Counselling and Wellness - I’m glad you’re here!
You might be looking for support to work through a challenge, improve communication, find direction, or simply have a space where you can talk openly and feel understood.
I'm based in Port Adelaide, inside Holistic Health Central on Brock Street. I offer Counselling for Adults, Teens and Employees, Workplace Communication Support, and Reiki to help you navigate challenges & energy - at home, at work or in life.
Whether you are seeking personal or professional growth, support through a difficult experience, help resolving confusion or conflict, or just need someone to sit beside you without judgement, I’m here to support you.
You can explore support options below for individual counselling, workplace support, or Reiki therapy.

SUPPORT YOU CAN TURN TO ANYTIME IN PORT ADELAIDE
☀︎ You’re overwhelmed and exhausted.
You keep pushing through, staying busy, trying to distract yourself — but it’s not working. You’re drained, not sleeping well, and your body feels stuck in stress mode.
☀︎ Your relationships are weighing heavily on you.
Someone you care about is draining your energy. You know you need boundaries, but guilt, obligation, or uncertainty keep getting in the way.
☀︎ You’re unsure why certain things trigger big reactions.
You respond strongly to something someone says or does, then later wonder why it hit so hard. It leaves you questioning yourself or feeling overly sensitive.
Common examples of why people seek support
☀︎ You’re navigating workplace pressure or leadership challenges.
Managing people, meeting expectations, having tough conversations, or simply trying to stay on top of everything is wearing you down.
☀︎ You’re trying to make sense of something painful or confusing.
A difficult situation, relationship, or event has left you with guilt, anger, shame, disappointment, or shock — and you’re not sure what to do with it.
☀︎ Your body is reacting in ways you don’t fully understand.
Tension, overthinking, racing heart, feeling “on edge” for no clear reason — like your body is speaking a language you haven’t learned yet.
We’re here whenever you need to talk—at a pace that feels right for you.

MY APPROACH
I know it can feel overwhelming to choose a Counsellor. When you reach out, you want to feel confident you’ve found the right person.
When we meet for the first time it will be in a room that provides confidentiality so that we can speak freely. We will begin our first session with an explanation of formalities, including details such as session timings, paperwork, my role, your role, confidentiality etc.
Through gentle, supportive conversations, you can talk through your experiences or needs, find clarity where you feel stuck, explore options and move forward in a way that feels right for you. Growth is a process. Many people find that 3–6 Counselling sessions give them the space and support needed to create lasting change. Our therapeutic relationship doesn’t end there — my door is always open if you wish to return for further support or a check-in when life feels challenging.
I encourage you to reach out to me, if you would like support.
We understand that fitting in self-care or support can feel impossible when you're constantly on the go. At Chat It Out, we offer flexible session times to bring harmony and control back into your life, quickly and effectively. It’s not about endless appointments or more on your list, but real support that helps you feel balanced at home, at work, and in life.
