Online Counselling for Rural and Regional Australia

Where I Work

At Frangipani House Body Mind Spirit, I offer online counselling for people living across rural and regional Australia — from small country towns and farming communities to coastal regions, mining towns, and remote inland areas where support can sometimes feel far away.

Online counselling allows you to access professional, compassionate support from the comfort and privacy of your own home, wherever you are in Australia.

Support for Rural and Regional Life

Living outside the major cities can bring many gifts — space, community, nature, resilience, and connection to the land. But it can also come with unique challenges. Accessing counselling services may mean long travel times, limited local options, concerns about privacy in small communities, or simply trying to fit support around demanding rural lifestyles.

Many people living in rural and regional Australia face unique pressures including drought stress, farming uncertainty, caregiving responsibilities, relationship strain, isolation, financial stress, and limited access to local mental health support. Online counselling provides a flexible and private way to access professional support without needing to travel long distances or join waiting lists in larger centres.

Common Reasons People Reach Out

Whether you are living in regional Queensland, country New South Wales, rural Victoria, remote Western Australia, Tasmania, South Australia, the Northern Territory, or regional communities across Australia, sessions are available via secure online video or phone.

  • Relationship and couples counselling
  • Stress, burnout, and emotional exhaustion
  • Isolation and loneliness
  • Family pressures and caregiving
  • Life transitions and uncertainty
  • Grief and loss
  • Farming and business stress
  • Men's and women's emotional wellbeing
  • Navigating illness, ageing, or dementia within families

Many rural Australians are used to being strong for everyone else. Counselling offers a quiet, supportive space where you do not have to carry everything alone.

You do not need to have everything figured out before reaching out for support. Sometimes having a calm, compassionate space to talk can help you feel more grounded, connected, and supported through life’s challenges.

What Working Together Looks Like

The process is supportive, and tailored to your needs. I'll also provide you with handouts and suggested videos to watch after the session.

1. Reach Out

Give me a call or text me to arrange an appointment. I'll ask for your email address and I'll send you through my practice information, and a client intake form to fill out and return.

2. First Session

The first session I'll ask you to share what's bringing you to counselling. We'll identify what support would feel most helpful, and we'll begin the counselling process.

3. Ongoing Sessions

Sessions are shaped around your needs, and your counselling goals.

Therapist portrait

Meet Your Therapist

Hi, I’m Kareen Fellows, a degree-qualified counsellor, specialising in relationship counselling and couples therapy. I’m passionate about helping people feel more grounded, understood, and connected — both to themselves and to each other.

My approach is warm, thoughtful, and collaborative. I aim to create a safe, supportive space where individuals and couples can slow down, reflect, and explore what’s been happening in their relationships without judgment or pressure.

I have a special interest in relationships and have supported many couples in building more fulfilling, respectful, and loving connections. While many relationships can be strengthened, I also support clients in navigating separation when that is the healthiest path forward.

My work is informed by training through The Gottman Institute, Relational Life Therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), and Mindfulness which I integrate to support emotional regulation, communication, and deeper connection.

You can learn more about my therapy background here.

Taking the Next Step

Reaching out for support can feel like a big step, especially when things have been difficult for a while. You don’t need to have everything worked out before making contact.

Whether you are coming as a couple or individually, counselling offers a space to slow things down, understand what’s happening, and begin moving forward in a more supported way.
