Ms Barb Segura

Licensed Mental Health Counselor

I support adults and elders navigating life transitions, career changes, divorce, grief, anxiety, and identity with warmth, respect, and evidence-based care. My practice honors your story, fosters resilience, and helps you live with clarity, purpose, and emotional well-being.

About Me

I offer a warm, respectful space to explore life transitions, grief, anxiety, or identity. My approach uses evidence-based care, honouring your unique story through thoughtful conversation. We will build resilience together, uncovering practical strategies for clarity and purpose. This collaborative process is ideal for adults and elders seeking clarity, purpose, and emotional well-being.

Approach

With gentle curiosity, I guide each session toward practical steps and emotional insight so change feels steady and manageable. Sessions in Melbourne or online run at a measured pace—balancing focused reflection, brief skill practice, and between-session check-ins when helpful. I mix clear information, practical tools, and attentive listening to address grief, transitions, relationship strains, or mood shifts so coping grows between sessions. This collaborative pacing suits adults and elders seeking thoughtful, steady progress toward clarity and purpose.
