Support for Mental Health Professionals
Support for Psychologists, Psychotherapists, Counsellors, Coaches and Other Wellness Professionals
​​​​​
​Our co-founder and Business Support Assistant Ashleigh has experience in supporting individuals and organisations in the counselling and psychotherapeutic field. Ashleigh also has experience supporting Neurodivergent business owners.
As a qualified counsellor who also works as a virtual assistant, she believes she is uniquely positioned to support fellow counsellors and psychologists in their practices.
Her background in mental health allows her to truly understand the specific challenges they face, from managing client communications to handling sensitive information with care. She can anticipate their needs, providing tailored administrative support that not only streamlines operations but also respects the therapeutic environment they create for their clients. By alleviating the burdens of paperwork and scheduling, she helps them focus more on what truly matters—delivering quality care and making a meaningful impact in their clients lives.
