Chris Garvey

I live in a rural community but have worked in an urban environment throughout my life, so I understand the demands of both. I do this job because I love it. Helping and supporting someone going through difficult times is a great privilege. I support people dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood, burnout, or grief. You might be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or not quite yourself. Together, we can make sense of what’s going on and explore ways forward that feel right for you. If we have the answers to the questions, we can make the most informed decision.

How I work, I get it. I have run a business for over 20 years, dealing with tenders, clients, employees, and all the stress that comes with it. As a business, I worked in corporate, construction, and agricultural environments, and I understand them. You don’t have to explain where you are coming from. I get it. I don’t analyse or judge you. I am here to help you sort out the stuff you need sorting out that keeps going around in your head. I know what that is like. I have been there. I work at your pace with a person-centred approach. I am here to help you find the answers to your questions.

Feel free to reach out! I'd love to have an initial chat with you to answer any questions you might have about therapy. This way, you can get a better sense of whether you'd like to work with me. I’m happy to work with you in person, online, by phone, or even a mix—whichever way feels best for you!
