Compassionate, Judgment-Free Drug & Alcohol Counselling – Online Support Wherever You Are
Your Partner in Recovery
Hello, and welcome to Steady Seas Counselling! I’m Carly, a compassionate and experienced counsellor with over 15 years of expertise in Alcohol and Other Drugs (AOD) and mental health services. My work is grounded in empathy, understanding, and evidence-based approaches designed to help you regain balance and take charge of your life.
Over the years, I’ve supported individuals from all walks of life. I have a particular focus on assisting those in high-pressure environments, such as mining professionals and individuals who use substances to cope with life’s challenges. I also specialise in helping loved ones of those affected by AOD issues, offering guidance and tools to navigate these often complex relationships.
Steady Seas Counselling was born out of a deep recognition of the gaps in support within this field. My mission is to guide, educate, and empower you through life’s many stages, helping you chart your own unique course to recovery and well-being.
I look forward to supporting you on your journey.
My Qualifications & Approach
Bachelor of Counselling, Specialising in Addiction Studies: A strong academic foundation in understanding and supporting mental health.
Expertise in AOD and Mental Health Services: Over 15 years of hands-on experience helping clients from diverse backgrounds.
Skilled in Multiple Modalities: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and humanistic approaches.
Personalised Treatment Plans: I tailor each session to your unique goals and circumstances.
When I’m not counselling, I enjoy exploring art, fitness, travel, and spending time with my dog. These passions keep me grounded and help me bring my best to every session.

"I honestly don’t think I could have done this without Carly. She stuck with me through the highs and lows of my two-year recovery, always knowing what to say and how to keep me moving forward. Thanks to her, I’m now living a good life, and I’ll always be grateful for her role in helping me get here.”
Marie- STEADY SEAS CLIENT
“Carly helped me understand how to set boundaries with my son while showing him love and support. I feel more confident and hopeful about how to handle his struggles. I can’t thank her enough for her guidance."
