Integrative Counselling & Wellbeing

About Integrative Counselling & Wellbeing

Integrative Counselling & Wellbeing is a boutique private counselling practice in Bendigo, founded by Irene Pearson, Director and Accredited Mental Health Social Worker.

We provide compassionate, trauma-informed and evidence-based counselling for individuals aged eight and over, couples and families navigating complex trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship conflict and life's challenges.

We recognise that past experiences, relationships and belief systems can shape how we see ourselves, relate to others and navigate the world. Our approach looks beyond immediate symptoms to explore the underlying causes of distress and patterns that may be keeping people feeling stuck. We work collaboratively to develop greater self-understanding and find meaningful, practical ways forward.

We believe hope, healing and sustainable change are possible, even when circumstances are difficult or challenges continue. We walk alongside each person with compassion, respect and curiosity, working at their pace and drawing on their strengths, values and experiences to foster greater self-understanding, practical change and healthier relationships.

Our practice offers a calm, low-sensory environment designed to support comfort, emotional wellbeing and psychological safety. Appointments are available in person in Bendigo, by phone and via telehealth.
