For Relationship Issues, Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Grief, Loss & Bereavement, Low Self Esteem, Bullying, Stress Management, Separation & Divorce, Life Skills, Career Paths and Individual Counselling
At The Counselling, Mediation & Relationship Centre, we approach your problem by focusing on your individual needs. The counselling experience is a partnership and you will be making all the important decisions.
The guidance and support you receive in counselling will help you conquer the problem that is holding you back. Through counselling, you will feel more powerful and in control. And you’ll feel better about yourself and more aware of all the things that are good in your life.
We can help you identify what’s causing your unhappiness – so you feel you at least understand it.
Then we can give you strategies to deal with it. Practical, realistic strategies that give you some control.
We’ll provide feedback and insights on anything that might be holding you back, such as patterns or influences you no longer need.
You don’t have to go through any of this alone. And you can change even difficult things. You owe it to yourself to have a good life. Start by talking to Donna Piromalli who will listen and give you strategies and insights in the first session at ”The Counselling, Mediation & Relationship centre.” Counselling is powerful and effective.
But don’t take our word for it.
These are some of the things our clients say about us:
“I feel so comfortable talking to you, it’s like talking to a friend but I know it’s confidential.”
“I never thought I would feel okay again after the separation but you were right – 12 months down the track I have a new partner and a new life and I feel great.”
“I like coming here, because you don’t know any of the people I am talking about.”
“You helped me to see that my feelings were not about my partner – it was because I was depressed.”
“If it wasn’t for you I don’t know where I would be – I never thought I would survive finding out about the affair –I wish I didn’t have to see you but I’m glad that I do.”
“I am gaining the confidence to treat myself the way that I should be treated and I feel good about myself.”
“You really help me to work out how I am going to manage my children and my new life after the separation.”
Our Counselling Services
Couples and Family Counselling
At The Counselling, Mediation & Relationship Centre, we recognize and know exactly how to deal with pain in a relationship and we have the professional tools to do it. We can help you regain closeness, passion, fun and get back that feeling of being ‘in love’.
Counselling can help a couple to:
- Understand the relationship they currently share and how they feel about each other
- Rediscover why they were attracted in the first place
- Find out what they want from their relationship and from each other
- Consider how both parties contribute to the current relationship
- Identify what they are prepared to do to make the relationship work.
Counsellors don’t make judgements on who is right or wrong; they don’t tell clients what to do; and they don’t try to persuade people to stay together or to separate.
You’ll get tools and strategies to break destructive patterns, deal with old resentments and move towards a more supportive and intimate relationship. You will discover new ways to communicate and that will help you communicate more effectively with your partner, children, friends and colleagues.
Through couples relationship training we will work with you in a safe and constructive manner, so you both get to say what’s really going on for you.
If breaking up is what you need, we can help you identify and manage the process to minimise damage and help you heal and move on.

Family Dispute Resolution (FDR) offers MEDIATION services that help couples affected by separation and divorce to resolve their parenting and property dispute.

With the assistance of the mediator, parties identify the relevant issues in dispute, and explore options with a view to negotiating a mutually agreed outcome.
FDR is not only about resolving conflict it can help prevent conflict. If you know you will need to negotiate arrangements, especially as children grow and routines change, you can arrange to discuss this at FDR.
