Empowered Relationships

Counselling for Kids, Teens & Adults

Hi I’m Alex

Helping You Build Safer, Stronger Relationships

Relational Align offers counselling for families, teens, and adults, including NDIS support. I help you develop emotional connection, clearer communication, and deeper self-awareness.

Whether you’re managing relationship stress, parenting challenges, or inner conflict, this is a space for practical support and meaningful change.

My approach is grounded in psychodynamic theory, trauma-informed practice, and relational insight. I work with patterns in the nervous system, family history, and communication style — not to pathologise, but to help you understand what’s shaping your experience.

I also work with children, including those with disabilities, using art, play, and sensory-based approaches to support emotional expression, regulation, and connection.

Where helpful, I integrate mindfulness, body awareness, and emotion-focused tools. You don’t need to have it all figured out. We start where you are.

How I Work

Our Services

Counselling for Families and Children

When a child is struggling emotionally or behaviourally, it’s often a signal — not just of their inner world, but of something happening in the relational environment.

At Relational Align, I work with children and parents together to understand what’s going on beneath the surface. I support families to shift patterns, build safety, and create emotional connection that supports long-term wellbeing.

This isn’t about “fixing” children. It’s about giving them the safety and attunement they need to thrive.

NDIS

I offer counselling for NDIS self-managed and plan-managed participants.

Support is tailored to each client’s needs, including emotional regulation, relational support, and mental health care within a trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming framework.

Counselling for Teens

Teenagers often feel things deeply but don’t always have the words — or safe places — to express them.

I work with teens who are navigating anxiety, disconnection, self-worth issues, identity questions, or difficulty in family or peer relationships. Sessions are built on respect, honesty, and emotional safety — giving young people space to be heard without judgment or pressure.

My approach is relational, grounded, and sensitive to the developmental changes teens are moving through.

Love Coaching for Women

For women ready to shift patterns in love.
Rooted in the Rori Raye Method, this coaching supports you to:

Stay connected to yourself in dating or relationship
Set boundaries without guilt
Break cycles of overgiving or chasing
Build emotional safety and relational self-trust

Offered as a standalone service or alongside counselling.

Counselling for Adults

Our relational patterns often come from early experiences — and unless we look at them, they tend to repeat.

Whether you're feeling stuck in unhealthy relationship dynamics, navigating emotional overwhelm, or wanting to change how you communicate or connect, I support you to explore what's beneath the surface.

Together, we identify patterns, reconnect you to your emotional integrity, and build the tools you need to relate with more clarity and self-trust.
