🌟 Sunshine Coast’s #1 trusted Counsellor with 60+ 5-star reviews. Evolving Connections is a relationship counselling and psychotherapy service that is constantly looking at ways to enhance your ability to develop and maintain healthy relationships. Hi, my name is Jo Distefano and I am the founder of Evolving Connections Counselling. I am passionate about relationships because they are essential to health and well-being. After spending thousands of hours working with amazing people, I have learnt that there is a hunger and drive for knowledge and internal development. Having worked extensively with clients as individuals and in relationships I have seen that human beings are motivated to discover meaningful ways of living so that they can thrive in their lives and with others. My experience has shown me that people are capable of continuously evolving and that healthy connections to others is a fundamental human need. The wisdom and resilience that people demonstrate never ceases to amaze me! Clients come to value working with me because I help them discover who they are, what’s important to them and what this makes possible for them as individuals and in their relationships.

When we remember our ancestors, we remember not only where we come from, but what lives within us that still seeks healing. 🧡

Your ancestors whisper in the patterns you live today. In our counselling room we listen: what is being carried, what is ready to be released, and what is ready to flourish.

ℹ️🌿 THE IMPORTANCE OF ANGER AND RAGE |

Everyone gets angry. Anger is a natural emotion that humanity has plenty of experience with it. When expressed in healthy ways, anger is adaptive and necessary to help us understand, set, and maintain boundaries.

This piece will concentrate on how anger and rage affect survivors physically and mentally. Often, survivors are told they should not be angry and ‘just get over it.’ That is not what this article is about.

Instead, this piece shall examine the importance of anger and rage in healing from complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD).

A Change In Our Story

And suddenly you just know...It’s time to start something new and trust the magic of new beginnings - Meister Eckhart

Hi, my name is Jo Distefano and I am the founder of The Avenue. Drawing on the experience and learning I have gained over the past eight years, I am expanding my remit. As such, I will be including relationship counselling for individuals, couples and families and running strengths-based support groups as part of my ongoing services. Of course, my work with loss and grief will continue to be integral to my practice. Other than this, the most obvious difference will be the change in name of my FB page from The Avenue Grief and Loss Counselling Service to Evolving Connections Counselling. Evolving Connections will continue to assist you in managing the challenges of loss and grief and the aim, as always, will be to strive for a heightened awareness of Self to facilitate a broader outlook and a stronger approach to change.

In addition to all of this, there will now be regular blogs, videos and additional information uploaded to my website as well as continuing to provide my regular posts on FB.

Thank you for your ongoing support and staying with me throughout the years.
