Welcome to
Warrior Within Counselling Support
Making space for the human experience.
Raina is an ACA-registered counsellor and the founder of Warrior Within Counselling Support, an established private counselling practice based in Rockhampton, Central Queensland. She works with adults across the region and online.
Raina is passionate about supporting people to build self-trust, strengthen their relationships with themselves and others, and navigate the experiences that shape who they are and how they move through life.
Her own experiences have shaped her understanding of how complex being human can be and sparked a deep interest in grief, resilience, personal growth and the ways we learn to navigate life's challenges. She believes meaningful change takes time, and that we all deserve the space to understand ourselves without judgement or the pressure to have everything figured out.
Raina brings warmth, curiosity and a genuine, down-to-earth approach to counselling, creating space for honest conversations and meaningful change. Her role isn't to tell you who to be or how to live, but to provide a space where you can explore your experiences, reconnect with yourself and find your own way forward.
Our Services

Values
Connection
Building meaningful therapeutic relationships grounded in trust, respect and empathy, creating space for open and honest conversations.
Compassion
Approaching each person's experiences with understanding and without judgement, recognising the complexities of being human.
Empowerment
Supporting people to strengthen self-trust, recognise their capabilities and feel confident in making choices that align with their values.
Our Approach
Raina takes a holistic, person-centred approach to counselling, looking beyond the immediate concern to better understand the experiences, relationships and patterns that may be shaping how a person feels and responds to the world around them.
She sees counselling as a collaborative process, built on trust, empathy and genuine human connection. Sessions provide space to speak openly, explore what's happening beneath the surface and develop a deeper understanding of yourself, with room for both the difficult conversations and the moments of clarity along the way.
Raina brings curiosity, compassion and a down-to-earth approach to her work, drawing on evidence-based strategies where appropriate. Rather than telling clients what to do, she works alongside them to explore possibilities, build on their strengths and find ways forward that align with their needs, values and circumstances.
