Kylie Fawkner

Are you going through a challenging time in your life and feel overwhelmed? Are you experiencing conflict in your relationships? Do you feel “stuck” and need to talk to someone for support and guidance.

Hello, I’m Kylie. Thank you for visiting my profile.

Firstly, I’d like to acknowledge the courage you have shown to make the decision to reach out and ask for help.

I am a trauma informed, compassionate, intuitive, creative Counsellor. This means that I will provide a safe, confidential, place for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, personal issues, understand your problem whilst listening without judgement.  Talking about your difficulties can bring a sense of relief, whilst also finding new ways of thinking and feeling about life’s events which leads to creating lasting change and healing any emotional pain. Clients often say that they feel so much lighter after Counselling.

All are welcome. My business name, All Sorts Counselling reflects the work I do. I am experienced in working with people from all walks of life: women, men, all ages, who have all sorts of problems.  I currently work as a Counsellor and Group Facilitator at the Hunter Women’s Centre 3 days a week.

Testimonies 

“After seeing Kylie, my partner and I have been getting along a lot better. Our family unit is back to being the way it was, happy and loving. Thank you Kylie for all your care and helping us both get through a really tough stage in our lives”. A & C

“I started seeing Kylie in March 2017 after a very traumatic experience. I was so affected by this experience that I couldn’t even talk about it much at first. Kylie made me feel at ease in her safe and judgement free environment which helped me to open up. Today I feel like a completely different person than the one that walked into see Kylie that first day. I have learnt more about myself and feel stronger and happier than I have in a very long time. She has many interesting techniques she uses and we always have a good laugh which I love. I highly recommend Kylie to anyone. She’s awesome and I could never thank her enough for how she has helped me become me again. Thank you Kylie!!” Client M, 39yr
