WHERE COMPASSION MEETS EXPERTISE
About Us
Every story has its first chapter, and we wrote ours in the serene landscapes of Ararat, Victoria, in 2018. We began with a simple belief: everyone deserves understanding and support. We started Ararat Wellness with a mission to be that beacon of hope and guidance, extending our services Australia-wide to NDIS participants, Home Care package recipients, and private clients by special arrangement.
Our strength lies in our team— our dedicated Behavioural Support Practitioners and Counsellors. Whether the client prefers an in-person session or the convenience of a secure telehealth platform, we’re here, ready to be a part of their story, ensuring every chapter is filled with growth and understanding.
We believe that therapy is for everyone; for issues big and small, and everything in between.
Navigating life with unique challenges often requires specialised support. Mental therapy and counselling are crucial in providing NDIS participants with the tools and strategies needed to manage emotions, build resilience, and foster a positive outlook on life.
