I’m Azelene Williams — an ACA Level 2 Registered Counsellor, Accredited Social Worker, therapeutic group facilitator, and lived-experience speaker.

I offer calm, structured support for individuals and groups who are seeking healing beyond survival, and who are ready to engage in reflective, holistic and somatic work at a steady, ethical pace.

This is not crisis-based therapy.

It is grounded, relational, and intentionally gentle.

Support that meets you where you are — without any pressure!

You may be drawn to this work if you:

  • Feel disconnected from yourself after years of coping or caring for others

  • Are ready to explore healing in a way that includes both mind and body

  • Want support that is paced, respectful, and non-directive

  • Have outgrown high-intensity or crisis-focused approaches

  • Are seeking clarity, grounding, or reconnection rather than “fixing”

My work is best suited to people who are not in acute mental health crisis, and who are ready to engage in reflective, contained support.

Individual Support

This work is offered within my scope as an ACA Level 2 Registered Counsellor, and is not designed for crisis intervention or high-risk presentations.

I work with individuals and professionals seeking gentle, ethical support for healing, reflection, and growth.

A grounded, ethical approach shaped by experience

I bring together:

  • Over a decade of experience in counselling and social work

  • Extensive background in trauma-informed and group-based practice

  • A strong foundation in ethical care, scope, and professional boundaries

  • Lived experience that informs — but does not overshadow — my work

My approach is relational, steady, and deeply respectful of where people are in their lives.

I believe healing doesn’t always require digging deeper — sometimes it requires feeling safer, slower, and more connected.

You don’t have to 

do this alone.

With the right support, healing can be steady, respectful, and sustainable.

When you work with someone like Azelene, you don’t just get a therapist or a coach; you get someone who has lived these experiences and has emerged from them with resilience, compassion, and true understanding.

Whole-Person, Trauma-Informed Approach

Holistic Care

Support is offered with attention to the whole person — body, mind, and emotional experience — recognising that healing happens best when people feel safe, seen, and unhurried.

Lived Experience

Lived experience informs my work without overshadowing it. Compassion, clarity, and professional boundaries guide every interaction, creating space for reflection, growth, and reconnection.
