Family Counselling Gold Coast — Stronger Families Start Here

Family Counselling at Tranquility

Every family goes through hard patches — conflict, communication breakdown, the strain of a major life change, or the impact of one member’s mental health on everyone else. Family counselling provides a supported space for those conversations to happen productively, with an experienced guide helping each person feel genuinely heard.

Ros Phillips has worked with Gold Coast families for nearly five decades. Her approach is calm, practical and non-blaming. No one is put on the spot; the focus is always on helping the family as a whole move forward.

Who does family counselling help?

• Families navigating separation or divorce
• Parents struggling with a child’s behaviour, mental health or substance use
• Blended families adjusting to new dynamics
• Families dealing with grief, illness or trauma
• Any family wanting to communicate better and reconnect

What does a session look like?

Sessions can involve the whole family together, sub-groups (parents only, siblings only), or individual members — whatever makes sense at that stage. Ros sets a calm, respectful tone from the start and ensures everyone has a chance to speak without interruption.

A typical course of family counselling involves 4–8 sessions, though shorter or longer arrangements are common depending on your situation.

Sessions available Monday to Saturday, 9am–6pm.
