Vania Labios
Counselling
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming. Experiences of trauma, loss, anxiety, or relationship pain can leave you feeling stuck, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself and others. Reaching out for support takes courage — and you don’t have to navigate it alone.
Vania is a trauma-informed Counsellor and Neurofeedback Practitioner who works with adults and young people to support healing, emotional regulation, and lasting change. She provides a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their experiences, make sense of their story, and move toward greater freedom and wellbeing.
Vania holds a Master of Counselling and is an Accredited Member of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and the Christian Counsellors Association of Australia (CCAA). She is EMDR-trained and has also undertaken training in Schema Therapy.
Her approach is personalised and integrative, drawing on evidence-based therapies including:
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Somatic and body-based approaches
Trauma-informed counselling
These approaches help clients process trauma, reduce distress, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop new patterns that support long-term healing.
In addition to counselling, Vania provides Neurofeedback — a safe, non-invasive form of brain training that helps the nervous system function more effectively. Neurofeedback can support emotional stability, improve focus and cognitive functioning, and reduce symptoms associated with trauma, anxiety, and chronic stress.
Vania works with clients experiencing:
Trauma and PTSD
Anxiety and depression
Grief and loss
Relationship difficulties
Low self-esteem
Emotional overwhelm and dysregulation
Vania’s work is grounded in deep respect for each person’s story. She believes that healing is possible, and that with the right support, people can move toward greater clarity, resilience, and hope.
