Supporting women
18 years and over
Fremantle does not think of itself as a suburb of Perth, and it does not behave like one. It has its own centre, its own way of doing things, and a smallness the rest of the city does not have: you run into people. That is one of the pleasures of living here, and every so often one of the difficulties.
It is also a place where a great deal of the work happens outside office hours — kitchens and bars, the markets, studios and galleries, shifts at the hospital. If that is your week, counselling in business hours suits you better than it suits almost anyone else: the middle of a Tuesday is the part of your week that is genuinely free.
Grounded Counselling Co. works online, from Halls Head. Sessions run 60 minutes by secure video, Monday to Friday within business hours, and you join from wherever you are. Nothing to drive to, nowhere to park, and no door in town to be seen walking through.
I work with women 18 and over, on their own or with a partner. Usually that means anxiety, a relationship that has turned into hard work, grief, the shift into motherhood, or a separation still being sorted out. No referral, and you pick the time yourself.
What we can talk about
How I can support you
Why online
Counselling that fits a week that is not nine to five
Weekday hours, when yours are not
Appointments are Monday to Friday in business hours. If you work nights or weekends, that is precisely the part of the week you are most likely to have free.
Freo is a small place
Everyone knows everyone, and word travels. Online, there is no waiting room in town, no reception to give your name to, and nobody to pass in the doorway.
Nothing to drive to
No trip up the highway and no hunting for a park, which around here is not a small consideration.
You pick the time, not a receptionist
The calendar is the booking. Nothing to negotiate over the phone, and no being handed whichever slot nobody else wanted.

Your counsellor
Hi, I'm Tilly.
For fifteen years I worked as a barista, making coffees and watching people come together over them — to talk, to laugh, to cry, and sometimes just to sit with someone who made the day feel lighter. Grounded Counselling Co. came out of that, and out of my own experience of needing someone to talk to.
I work with women 18 and over, online, through the things that are hard to say out loud the first time. You do not need to arrive with it all worked out.
Good to know
Questions about counselling in Fremantle
Do you have a practice in Fremantle?
No. I am based in Halls Head and work remotely only — there are no rooms in Fremantle or anywhere else, and no home visits. Every session is held by secure video.
I work nights and weekends. Do your hours actually suit me?
Probably better than they suit most people. Sessions run Monday to Friday, between 9:30am and 4pm, which is awkward if you work a standard week and straightforward if you do not. There are no evening or weekend appointments, so it is worth knowing that before you book.
Can I take a session between shifts?
Yes, as long as you have somewhere private for the full hour and a connection good enough for video. A quiet room, a parked car, or home before you head in — any of those will do.
I would rather not run into someone I know.
In a place this size that is a reasonable thing to want, and it is one of the better arguments for meeting online. There is nothing to walk into and nothing on your calendar anyone else can see.
I am self-employed and my income moves around. Is there a lower rate?
The founding client rate of $100 applies to the first ten clients. After that the fee is the fee — I would rather say so plainly than imply a flexibility that is not there.
Do I need a referral from my GP?
No. You can book directly, without a referral, a diagnosis or a mental health care plan.
