Bokeh Therapy

WOMEN'S MENTAL HEALTH

Our services:

As women, we tend to put other people’s needs in front of our own. It can be hard and even scary at times to admit we need help, let alone find the courage to seek out support when we need it the most.

There are many major life transitions that a woman goes through in her lifetime including;

• Depression in adolescents
• Eating disorders
• Fertility issues/ loss
• Post-natal depression
• Antenatal and post-natal emotional well being
• Relationship break down
• Violence or abuse
• Single parenting and behaviour management breakdowns
• Anxieties with managing a healthy work-life balance
• Being the sole caretaker
• Menopause
• Grief and loss
• Mood related challenges

Principal counsellor Kate Najar of Bokeh Therapy specialises in women’s mental health. Kate is a mother of two, with real-life family experiences to go along with it.

Growing up in regional South Australia and moving to study in metro Adelaide Kate has worked as a teacher for over the last 13 years in Australia and abroad, has a master’s degree in counselling and is an accomplished musician, singer/songwriter.

Kate is fuelled by her passion for wanting to help others. She considers herself a ‘forever student’ eager to both build on her academic foundation in psychology and to stay in tune with the latest therapies for women’s mental health.

Recently, along with teaching full time, Kate has created several programmes in conjunction with Employment Options. These were aimed at re-engaging youth from varying backgrounds and environments in order to help them build relationships within their family units, achieve small and large personal goals, build confidence and gain meaningful employment.

Whilst working within these programmes Kate reignited her passion for women’s mental health and has worked through her master’s degree with a holistic and inclusive approach to “all women’s mental health”
