Counselling & Applied Neuroscience
I was thankfully introduced to Kim Hansen from Mindkeys during a very unsettled period in my life.
In a short space of time, Kim not only got a very clear grasp on my issues, but helped me put several things into perspective that had been troubling me for many years.
She has empowered me with some sound coping mechanisms, and helped me to focus on gaining a deeper understanding of myself which is helping me in all facets of my life.
I can now focus on any issues that arise with confidence and a new-found perspective on things. I feel like I can breathe again, and I’m looking forward to the future.
Thanks Kim.

Counselling with Kim was more like a friendly chat with a really good friend. One of her best aspects is that she never made me feel uncomfortable or pressured to say anything I wasn't ready for. Her warm and caring nature is contagious. It was this nature that really allowed me to open up and rectify issues I didn't even know I had!

I have battled with anxiety throughout my life, which finally culminated in a diagnosis of depression. The world became a very bleak and hopeless place and I was completely lost in my own turbulent and destructive thoughts and emotions. Kim's thoughtful and non-judgmental support has been invaluable for developing strategies and skills to retake control of my life and rediscover the beauty of the world. Kim is professional, approachable and cares about the individuals she works with. I would unreservedly recommend Kim to anyone seeking support.

My 17 yr old daughter has been counselled by Kim Hansen for 9 years during which time she has found great comfort, support and more importantly learnt many life skills which have been extremely beneficial in dealing with her anxiety and depression. Kim has also helped both myself and my husband to become better parents thanks to her wonderful and knowledgeable experience in dealing with children and young adults who want to be able to live happier, healthier lives.
My husband and I have seen our daughter grow into a more confident and happy young person predominantly due to the wise choices Kim made us aware of in order to allow our daughter to grow into the beautiful young woman she is slowly, but surely becoming.
My husband and I will be eternally grateful for her help and guidance during some very rough times. We would recommend her services to anyone and in fact have done so, on many occasions.
She is someone who instills confidence and understanding in a professional manner enabling wonderful life-changing results in the lives of those who are fortunate enough to be counselled by her.

Kim Hansen has been my counsellor and confidant for many years and has helped me immensely in how I am able to live my day to day life and how I live within myself. I would not be able to deal with half of the problems life's thrown at me without her help and I'm very grateful for everything she has given me. I have gained confidence and self respect as well as many coping mechanisms. I would recommend her to anyone and have done so frequently.

Clinical Hypnotherapy
Our daughter has been counselled by Kim for over a year to help her with her anxiety. In that time we have noticed a distinct improvement in our daughter’s reaction to situations and overall behavior. She has also had several hypnotherapy sessions which have helped her to relax, something she found difficult to do on her own. She seems calmer and generally less stressed after these sessions. We are very grateful to Kim for everything she has done to help our family. We’re now actually enjoying each other’s company!

Clinical Supervision
I am a qualified counsellor based in Hong Kong. Having completed studies with the Australian College of Applied Psychology (Sydney) and a Masters in Counselling with Monash University (Melbourne), I wanted to engage the services of a trained, qualified, experienced, competent and professional supervisor as I work towards returning to Australia to engage in counselling/therapy services there.
I came across Kim's name through the ACA website; her training, qualifications, experience, positive personality and our initial contact led me to believe that Kim and I would work together well in a supervisor-supervisee capacity. We have consolidated and continue to develop a structured approach which has led to an on-going strong dynamic professional supervisor-supervisee relationship. We Skype regularly, and Kim has always made herself available when an urgent need arises.
Having worked with Kim for more than a year now, I can wholeheartedly say that she has enabled me to improve my therapeutic stance and professional approach with my clients; she has been there for client 'crises'; she has challenged me to refine my thinking; she has supported me in choosing training that will broaden my experience; she continues to provide me with a strong base from which I can expand and develop my practice.
Her ongoing commitment to continuing professional development, her experience, her qualifications and her open, honest and generous character have all led to our ongoing supervisory relationship being one that I value greatly; had I not had this professional relationship with Kim, I can honestly say that my own personal, professional development would not have led me to the positive, healthy private practice I find myself developing.
I wholeheartedly recommend Kim Michelle Hansen.
