Counselling at Mindkshetra

A Creative, Compassionate, and Culturally-Aware Approach to Mental Wellbeing

At Mindkshetra, counselling is more than just talking—it is a space for reflection, growth and emotional transformation. We offer counselling in Wentworthville NSW and Parramatta, combining evidence-based therapy, cultural understanding and creative tools to support mental health and wellbeing.

Our qualified counsellors in Wentworthville provide support to individuals, families, couples and young people, helping them navigate anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties and life challenges. Our approach is grounded in Narrative Therapy and Person-Centred Therapy, with the option to integrate creative methods informed by our background in art therapy.

What

Is Counselling?

Counselling is a confidential therapeutic process where you can explore thoughts, feelings and behaviours in a supportive environment. Unlike advice-giving, counselling helps people learn, understand their patterns and make empowered choices.

At Mindkshetra, we do not pathologise—we personalise. Your cultural background, values and identity shape the counselling journey. Whether you’re dealing with stress, family issues or seeking clarity, our counsellor in Wentworthville NSW will walk alongside you.

Our Therapeutic Approach:

Narrative and Person-Centred Therapy

Narrative Therapy

Narrative Therapy helps individuals reframe their life stories. Rather than viewing people as the problem, we separate the person from the problem—helping you recognise your strengths, values, and resilience.

For example, someone who identifies only with anxiety may, through narrative work, begin to see the courage, persistence, and insight they’ve shown in facing it. This approach shifts focus from what’s wrong to what’s possible.

Person-Centred Therapy

Built on the belief that every person has an innate capacity for growth, Person-Centred Therapy is guided by three key principles: genuineness, unconditional positive regard, and empathic understanding.

Your counsellor meets you with openness and respect, creating a safe space where you feel seen, accepted, and supported. This approach is particularly empowering for those who have felt unheard or marginalised, offering an opportunity to reconnect with your authentic self.

Does Medicare

Cover Counselling

Medicare typically provides rebates for registered psychologists and some mental health practitioners. Counselling is not always covered under Medicare, but private health funds or NDIS may provide partial coverage depending on your situation. If you’re looking for free counselling options in NSW, community mental health services or university clinics may offer low-cost support. At Mindkshetra, our subsidised overseas student counselling provides accessible care where possible.
