Why Choose Brighter Outlook

Brighter Outlook is a safe place where you can work through the issues that are stopping you from living your life to the fullest.

As well as her expertise gained in supporting thousands of individuals and couples, Nova brings compassion and empathy to her therapy sessions, where you will feel not only heard, but understood.

She helps you to understand and process the issues that seem insurmountable at present, and put the pieces of your life back together with concrete strategies to heal. Nova believes that therapy can help everyone, and a supportive, nurturing environment, respectful of diversity, is provided for individuals from all cultural backrounds, sexual and gender identities.

No two people will experience their crisis and trauma in exactly the same way, and at Brighter Outlook you will be supported as the unique individual that you are, to live the life you desire.

Life has this way of presenting us with situations that can impact our mental health, and not processing these feelings can be like plugging up a hose and then turning on the tap.

Eventually that plug is going to come unstuck, and you will have as much control over these emotions as you would with an exploding hose. Anxiety, depression and anger are common symptoms that people face when they don’t understand, or lack the ability to control certain parts of their lives. As humans we see no problem in putting in our car for a service so that it doesn’t break down, or at the slightest rattle in the engine we take it to be repaired, and yet we overlook regular maintenance on two of the most important things in our life – Our mental health and our relationships.

At Brighter Outlook we help you to accept, normalise, and even look forward to therapy! Our goal is to help you to explore and process the feelings that are preventing you from being happy, to determine the underlying reason behind them, and empower you to take back control of your life.

Are you feeling sad, anxious, stressed, depressed, or perhaps angry all the time and you don’t always know why?

Are you self medicating with alcohol, food and/or other drugs to escape these feelings for a brief time which ultimately makes these feelings worse? Perhaps you are experiencing parenting issues, intimacy issues or you have unprocessed childhood trauma that is negatively impacting on your ability to be happy and thrive in the present.
