Welcome to Sacred Unfurling
Holistic Counselling for Women and Mothers - Perth and online
Holistic Counselling for Women and Mothers - Perth and online
I’m Carmen, a registered counsellor based in Perth, WA, offering online services to clients locally and Australia wide. At Sacred Unfurling Counselling, I provide a nurturing space for those who are:
Adjusting to the changes of new motherhood
Feeling burnt out, stressed and emotionally drained
Living with grief, anxiety, or self-doubt
Navigating identity shifts or life transitions
Longing for more presence, meaning and life balance
My counselling approach combines psychology, nervous system awareness, and a holistic perspective. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, reconnect with your body’s wisdom, and create space for change.
Hey Mama,
I see you. You don’t have to hold it all alone.
Motherhood can feel relentless. Your cup is empty, and somewhere along the way you’ve lost touch with who you are at your core. You long for a space where you don’t have to filter yourself - where you can be deeply witnessed, grounded, and met with compassion.
Maybe you’ve done the inner work before, but something still feels stuck. You’re striving to be the best parent you can be, yet find yourself stuck in cycles of rage, guilt and shame. Maybe you are a perfectionist, neurodivergent or a sensitive empath. Holding everything and everyone all the time feels like too much.
You are not broken. You are simply longing for safety, space, and gentle support to soften, reconnect, and remember who you are.
Imagine feeling…
Grounded and regulated, even in the chaos of daily life
Reconnected with your true self, beyond the roles you carry
Present with your children, without the guilt and shame cycles
Lighter, spacious and free to express your creativity and joy
Supported by practices that nurture your nervous system and soul
This is the work of Sacred Unfurling.
I’m a qualified counsellor with a background in psychology (B. Psych Hons, M. Counselling), and a mother walking this path too, including the wild initiation of raising twins.
I bring both professional training and lived experience to my practice, blending evidence-based counselling with a holistic, heart-led approach. My work is grounded in presence, nervous system awareness, and a deep respect for your unique journey.
Here, you are never “too much” or “not enough.” You are met exactly as you are.
My Approach
A heart-led approach that honours your whole self:
Together we slow down, create safety, and listen for what your body and inner voice is really telling you. I weave compassionate conversation, nervous system awareness, and creative, embodied practices to help you reconnect with your true self. No quick fixes or labelling. Just attuned, grounded support as you navigate your path forward.
How It Works
1. Book your first session here. If you prefer to have a chat first to see how we align, please send me a message here
2. Together we create a space of safety and presence.
3. Through gentle conversation, nervous system practices, and soul-led awareness, we explore what needs to be seen, released, and integrated.
You don’t have to carry it all alone.
This is your invitation to soften, to be seen, and to return to yourself. When you’re ready, I’m here to hold a gentle, steady space for your unfolding.
