Your counsellor: Jane Oakley-Lohm
I hold an Australian accredited Diploma in Counselling which includes training in five therapeutic approaches:
• case work
• case management
• stress management
• working with a difference
• ethics, abuse and group counselling.
Additionally, I hold three advances study majors:
• grief and loss
• relationships and conflict resolution
• abuse counselling.
I trained also in the international accredited Sexual Offender Risk Assessment comprising the STATIC-99, STABLE-2000 and ACTUE-2000 and Sexual Offender Intervention. Additionally, I have accreditation as a Lifeline Telephone Counsellor.
As well, I have trained in mediation through "Leader", which meets the education requirements of both Leader accreditation and accreditation under the National Mediator Accreditation Scheme, introduced in 2008.
I am a listener and make no judgements. I ascertain where you will need support, and what you want in your life, by guiding, supporting and building self-esteem.
It is my belief that you can reach anything you desire. I treat each person as an individual and tailor sessions to suit personal needs. The direction and speed of the sessions is steered by you; no session needs to be so scary that you feel you can't cope.
I am a qualified member of the Australian Counselling Association which requires me to undergo continuous training and supervision.

Remote health care: my story
I have been living in Central Australia since 1980, moving to Alice Springs in 1991. Prior to that, for 11 years, I was based in a remote part of the top end of South Australia at a hotel/roadhouse complex in what was later to become the town of Marla.
In its early days Marla had no communication services - no radio, no phone, no TV, no internet - only the much needed Royal Flying Doctor Radio which helped with the emergency evacuation of sick people living in or visiting remote locations.
On two occasions the Royal Flying Doctor Service evacuated me by air to receive medical care. My two children were bought up in this remote location and I well remember being a new mother living without access to any medical assistance except a monthly visit from the Royal Flying Doctor Service.
