Fremantle Counselling Service

Fremantle Counselling Service

Fremantle Counselling Service (previously known as Relationship Matters) is a private counselling practice for individuals, couples and families. Owned and operated by Fergus Matthews (B.A., B.S.W.), a qualified Social Worker and professionally accredited counsellor, Fergus has been counselling for over 25 years and has extensive postgraduate training in the various forms of family therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy and other counselling techniques.
Fergus has specialist skills in in Relationship and Family Therapy and also works with service veterans and their families to deal with issues or trauma, illness, loss and grief.
He works predominantly within a 'systems' framework, but varies this with a number of complementary clinical approaches. His practice reflects the reality that many people don't come to counselling for long periods of time, so he works in a way to attempt to achieve outcomes as soon as possible. His work always includes very 'concrete' strategies on how to manage the various issues better.
Fergus is an accredited Mental Health Social Worker. This means that your GP can refer your through a mental health plan and that a proportion of the fee can be claimed from medicare. The referral must be in place prior to the appointment to claim the refund.
