Mindfully Connected Therapies

Hi I’m Sussy Hollaway,

I am a trauma informed mental health social worker. I have over 20yrs of experience providing social work services with the community, public and welfare sectors.

A sentence that sums up my practice:

Lets get vulnerable, curious and creative together.

My practice framework 

I practice from a client centred, person-in-environment ecological perspective. This means I work from a place where I place you at the center with an understanding that what you are experiencing in your internal world (thoughts, feelings and emotions) effects and is effected by what is happening in your external world (eg. work, relationships, finances, education, health, the services and systems that we engage in). Furthermore these experiences are all influenced and effected by the broader systems that surround us (eg. government structures, laws, culture).

How I work with people? 

Counselling and therapeutic work at Mindfully Connected Therapies (MCT) is about relationship, connection and partnership. It’s about providing a safe space we’re you can find the courage to get vulnerable and explore what gives your life purpose and meaning and what might be blocking your access to this innate knowledge.
