Belinda Hulstrom, ACA Registered Counsellor

Like many practitioners, Belinda didn't start out as a therapist. After graduating with honours from Oxford University (where she also completed post graduate study in education), she spent the best part of 15 years in various teaching, curriculum development and counselling and mentoring roles in adult and secondary education and also spent a couple of years in the corporate world along the way. The move she made out of education in 1998 and into the therapy profession surprised many people but for Belinda it wasn't astonishing at all: having spent many years focusing on how students, families and colleagues perceive, process and relate to their environment, to make the move into counselling and hypnotherapy as a career felt like a natural progression. Belinda is keen to continually update her skills and to network with other therapists, both in Australia and overseas, and she is a Registered Member of The Australian Counselling Association and a Fellow and Professional Clinical Member of The Australian Association of Clinical Hypnotherapy & Psychotherapy. To join these professional organisations requires strict adherence to a professional code of ethics and practice and ongoing commitment to professional supervision and annual professional development via seminars and training courses. Belinda is also an experienced conference presenter and workshop facilitator and acts as a Supervisor for many of her colleagues in the counselling and hypnotherapy professions. Belinda has may years of experience working at a distance with interstate and international clients via a teletherapy service which is secure, easy to use and with no software to install. Her Specialties include: Stress Management Anxiety Depression Weight Management Sleeptalk for Children Consultant Biofeedback Relationship Counselling General Counselling Clinical Supervision (Accredited Supervisor for AACHP; APHP and for the Australian Counselling Association).
