Wavell Heights Clinic Expands Counselling Team to Meet Local Mental Health Needs

Families and individuals in Wavell Heights now have greater access to mental health support, as the Brisbane Livewell Clinic expands its counselling services to meet a growing need in the local community. The clinic has strengthened its team with two new counsellors, bringing a broader range of therapeutic approaches and more flexible appointment options to residents in North Brisbane.



The expansion, announced on 22 October 2025, reflects an increasing awareness of mental health care and the demand for accessible counselling in suburban areas. Counsellors Alicia Kent-Rooney and Nathan Gurry have joined the Wavell Heights practice, each bringing distinct specialisations in emotional wellbeing, relationship support, and holistic mental health strategies.

Both professionals are based at 1/52 Jeffcott Street, Wavell Heights, where they offer individual, couples, and family counselling sessions. The clinic’s holistic approach includes attention to emotional, physical, and lifestyle factors, aligning with its broader wellness philosophy. 

The team shared that expanding local services aims to make quality counselling more accessible to the surrounding community and provide ongoing care closer to home.

The Brisbane Livewell Clinic, established as a multidisciplinary wellness practice, continues to integrate counselling alongside its nutrition, naturopathy, and acupuncture services. The Wavell Heights expansion demonstrates its commitment to supporting residents through both mental and physical wellbeing programs — particularly as awareness grows around the value of professional counselling as part of everyday health care.
