Welcome to Hablar Counselling Brisbane
Hi. I’m Jillian White, a professionally trained and accredited Brisbane-based counsellor with over 20 years experience working in a range of counselling settings both in Australia and abroad.
Counselling can help you to let go of worries that may be interrupting your life. It can also help you to live more comfortably with things that can’t be changed.
Through counselling, you can learn new skills to better manage your life, your relationships or how to get on better with people that you work or socialise with.
I provide confidential counselling for the following:
- Grief and loss – this is an area of special interest in my work and research
- Mood disorders – including anxiety, depression and anger
- Abuse and trauma including addiction problems, sexual and domestic abuse
- Workplace bullying
- Living with mental health disorders (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depression, personality disorders) and neurodegenerative disease such as Alzheimer’s
- Relocation and resettlement difficulties, including transitioning from another culture to life in a new country
- Mens Counselling
- Adolescent Health and Wellbeing
- Personal development and coaching, and building loving relationships
Counselling via Skype or In-person
I offer in person counselling at my rooms in the south Brisbane area, and I also offer counselling via Skype. I can be contacted for appointments by phone or email.
Counselling Fees
The standard fee for counselling is $100 for 50 minutes.
Any discounts on this fee can be considered individually depending on financial circumstances and negotiated at the start of therapy.
I also offer a limited number of pro-bono counselling for people with mental health problems who have a doctor’s referral.
Not sure if counselling is for you?
The biggest challenge facing people coming to counselling is making the decision to talk to a stranger about personal problems. I’ve prepared some resources that will help you decide whether to seek counselling.

Testimonials
Names have been withheld.
Down to earth, use of humour to lighten the mood, and the ability to offer grounded and helpful advice to apply in real situations, based on decades of experience. No BS.
It takes a special kind of approach, at times, and it must be coupled with a competent professional application, to untangle a mess of circumstances, emotion, invalidation and diluted hope.
