Flexible counselling options

We offer both in-person and online counselling, so you can access support in a way that suits your life and circumstances.

In person counselling Warwick, Perth

Face-to-face sessions are available from our private consulting room within the Wellness Zone in Warwick — a calm, professional space designed to feel welcoming, not clinical. If you value in-person connection, structure, or a dedicated space away from the noise of everyday life, this option may be the right fit for you.

We’re conveniently located for clients travelling from Greenwood, Kingsley, Duncraig, Hamersley, Padbury, Woodvale, Hillarys, Joondalup, and surrounding Perth northern suburbs. Evening and weekend appointments are available.

Online counselling Australia wide

Online counselling with As You Are Counselling is just as warm and effective as meeting in person — just from wherever you are. If you prefer the comfort of your own space, have a busy schedule, or live outside Perth’s northern suburbs, online sessions offer real flexibility without compromising on quality.

Secure video appointments are available to clients across Australia, including evenings and weekends. The same counsellors, the same care — just through a screen.

Meet the counsellors

As You Are Counselling is a shared practice, offering support from two counsellors with complementary styles and shared values. We focus on creating a calm, respectful space where people feel safe to speak openly.

Brendan English

Brendan supports adults carrying heavy mental, emotional, and life stress — especially those managing anxiety, burnout, grief, identity shifts, career or relationship changes, and major life transitions. Having walked through intense life shifts himself — from military service to letting go of unhealthy relationships, becoming a father, and navigating career changes — he brings grounded, human understanding and practical support to help you make sense of what’s happening and move forward with confidence.

Esther English

Esther understands from the inside what it means to love your children deeply and still feel quietly lost in motherhood. She specialises in supporting women through the emotional complexity of pregnancy, early parenthood, and the identity shifts that so often arrive with it — creating a warm, unhurried space where women can speak honestly about their experience without judgement, explanation, or the pressure to be okay.
