Counselling
Individual Counselling
Tolycab specialises in individual counselling for men, including issues like relationships, work, spirituality, pornography, identity, and parenting.
We also have extensive experience in helping individuals deal with and overcome trauma.
​
Some clients feel they only need a single session, while others prefer to meet regularly. Each session is tailored to suit the individual using a variety of therapies and approaches, according to what is most suitable.
​
For Christian clients who would like their faith included in their counselling experience, we are able to offer a unique combination of clinical and spiritual approaches.
Traumatic Incident Reduction
Traumatic Incident Reduction (TIR) is a powerful exposure therapy designed to reduce stress from painful past events.
Developed for emergency services personnel, it involves re-experiencing past traumas in a completely safe environment, free of distractions, judgments, or interpretations.
Sessions may go for up to three hours at a time, and one or two sessions may be all that’s needed.
​
We are fully accredited in the use of TIR.
Professional Supervision
As part of our commitment to good mental health, we provide professional supervision for individuals working in this area.
This includes mental health professionals such as counsellors and social workers, peer support officers, and pastoral supervision for clergy.
​
We are often requested to provide ad-hoc specialist supervision for complex issues.
"Shannon has the rare ability as a mental health professional of using hard neuroscience to complement his exceptional skills as a mental health clinician. His emergency services background makes him more understanding of mental health injures common in those who live 'outside the safe community bubble'.
He is an intuitive and caring therapist who made a massive difference for me in my recovery."
