The Relationship With Yourself

What if your relationship with yourself could change the way you experience your life?

Like a sunflower reaching towards the light, we all have the capacity to grow, heal, and thrive — even after seasons of darkness, uncertainty, and change.

Have you lost touch with who you are? Do you struggle to recognise your worth, honour your needs, or feel confident in yourself? Are you ready to let go of what holds you back and embrace new possibilities?

You don’t have to remain where you are. Your past does not define your future, and change is possible. 🌻 Your journey begins with you.

Heal what hurts. Transform what holds you back. Thrive as you become.

Hayley Gravener

We all have a story.

Your story matters and deserves to be honoured. Even the messy, painful, and sad parts deserve space to be told.

I have worked with women, men, families, and married couples across different cultures and backgrounds for 16 years. I have listened to and seen the devastating effects on adults due to the negative impacts of childhood abuse, violence, maltreatment, abandonment, and serious neglect in early childhood and adolescence in family relationships.

These Relational Trauma impacts follow adults well into their closest and intimate relationships, and the grief and loss of not experiencing a safe, protected, loving, or nurturing upbringing are always present.

Many suffer deep emotional wounds and internal turmoil due to unprocessed emotions and unhealed wounds that are linked to past or present relational trauma in our most significant relationships. There is a barrier and fear of expressing emotions due to becoming vulnerable, and the uncomfortable feelings associated with never feeling heard, wanted, loved, or accepted.

At Be Healed Specialist Counselling, we provide women, families, and married couples with a safe, trusting, and nurturing space to share their life stories and experience the hope for a brighter future. Feeling safe when expressing the real and raw parts of themselves is important.

We offer compassion, empowerment, non-judgement, and a person-centred approach to the foundations of our time together, as this is when true healing happens. We will support you to break off the shame, guilt, and blame of what happened to you, and support you to recreate a new story. One with hope, peace, and freedom.

Healing is a normal process and a personal journey. You have come this far, well done! Keep taking small steps to do this for you, as your future self will thank you for it.

Let’s talk and figure it out together.

Testimonials

Community Centre - Orwil Street House

International Women's Day 2024 - Guest Speaker.

Presentation: Healthy and Respectful Relationships

“I recently attended the Healthy and Respectful Relationships presentation by Hayley Gravener at the Mordialloc Community Centre and was so impressed by the delivery and trauma-informed understanding that Hayley shared with all participants.

This workshop created space for participants to engage in a safe and nurturing environment whilst helping build awareness to recognise unsafe behaviours in familial and inter-personal relationships. It was clear from the response in the room that many participants gained a lot out of the session and went away with a sense of confidence.

Hayley has such an engaging style and delivered her presentation with a lot of warmth and kindness. It was such a pleasure to be part of this and share in learning, open discussion and healing.

Thank you Hayley for generously sharing lessons that will assist the work I am doing as a foster carer”.

Mordialloc Community Centre

The Mordialloc Community Centre was thrilled and honoured to welcome Hayley Gravener to our recent Health and Wellbeing forum with a focus on Healthy and Respectful Relationships. Hayley facilitated an informed and comprehensive presentation that allowed for audience discussion and thoughtful reflection.

Hayley responded enthusiastically to the brief that we gave her and catered a presentation that was respectful and appropriate to the demographic of the audience and catered well to both our visual and auditory learners.

Hayley was an absolute joy to work with, her spirited energy mixed with a calmness and genuine compassion and kindness for others made for a truly inspiring and enjoyable presentation.

Thank you Hayley, we are so grateful to have met you and look forward to welcoming you back to Mordialloc Community Centre in the very near future.

Groomed To Go - Workshop

Thank you so much for the absolute life-changing work that you do Hayley.
I wish I had some constructive feedback for you, but I believe it was perfect and you are doing an amazing job and so obviously have a gift for this work. My only suggestion would be to make it maybe 90 minutes so people have a chance to ask you lots of questions, it seems like the topic sparks a lot of interest. I also think these sessions should be in secondary schools and universities, they would be invaluable for young people starting out in life.
