Happy Life Healing is an alternative, holistic youth counselling service for young people aged 6 – 26 years, living and working in the Latrobe Valley and Gippsland areas. 

Happy Life Healing is designed to assist youth in creating balance, harmony, and happiness in their lives, by overcoming difficulties and breaking harmful cycles of behaviour.

Rather than ‘band-aid’ methods that tend to deliver short term benefits or relief, the therapies used by Happy Life Healing are organic meditation and emotional alchemy that through the subconscious, seek out and heal the root of the problem.

This is intended to equip and empower the client with mechanisms that deal with not only the immediate or obvious difficulties, but also those that may be yet to arise.

Resolving the issue at the root cause provides a longer lasting solution, which reduces the likelihood of the need for ongoing therapy.

Between 3-6 sessions of 30 minutes for primary aged and 45 to 60 minutes for teens is generally all that is required.
