Counselling with Garrath Elborne
Start Moving Forward with Your Life Today
Feeling stuck, unheard, or overwhelmed? Let's begin the conversation that brings connection, clarity, and hope.
"Conversations are like stars — they help you find your bearings."
The Approach
Discover Your Path Forward
At Today Matters Counselling, I believe that conversations are like stars once used by sailors — shining a light to help you find your bearings and chart your course.
My approach is grounded in conversation, connection, and clarity. I provide a safe and supportive space where you can feel genuinely heard and understood. Through open dialogue, we'll explore your experiences together, strengthen your resilience, and uncover the clarity you need to move forward with confidence.

Counsellor & Founder
I'm Garrath, a counsellor dedicated to helping people build resilience, clarity, and connection in their lives.
As a father of eight, cancer survivor, and long-time carer, I know what it feels like to face overwhelming challenges. These lived experiences shape the way I work — blending professional training with real-world understanding.
For more than 13 years, I've also mentored men and young people through programs like Men's Wellbeing, Mentoring Men, and the Raise Foundation. I specialise in supporting those who feel unheard or disconnected, helping them rediscover hope and purpose.

How I Can Help You
Every person's journey is different. Here are the ways we can work together.
Introductory Counselling Session
Discover counselling tailored uniquely to your needs — recognising that not every counsellor is the right fit for you. Let's explore our connection in the initial free half-hour conversation, ensuring comfort and clarity with no obligation to continue. (First session only)
On Going Counselling
Book your counselling sessions in advance, at times when it suits you most and as often as you feel is necessary. Consistent support to help you move forward at your own pace.
Group Session & Conversation
Monday Nights 6pm till 8pm — small group conversation and connection. Come along and have a conversation about what's important to you, listen to others, and gain new connections and perspective to find clarity in your own life.
Couples Counselling
When life takes over, couples can lose the connection they once had, and conversations that once brought them close may fade. Our two-day couples counselling workshop, spread over two 6-hour sessions a week apart, helps you both reclaim your voices and truly hear each other — moving forward with a future-focused plan.
Emergency Counselling — Today I Need To Talk
Sometimes we just need to talk to someone today, and that is so important. Placing our emotions on hold can impact how we eventually deal with our feelings or situations. Bookings are available at the start and end of each day and are kept open for just these occasions.
Online Counselling
Can't make it in person? Online sessions are just as effective and available from the comfort of your own space. Flexible scheduling including evenings to accommodate busy lives.
No Risk, No Obligation
The First 30 Minutes is FREE
Your first 30-minute session is free. It's a chance to see if I'm the right counsellor for you. If it feels right, we'll continue into a full session. If not, I'll gladly recommend another counsellor who might be a better fit. Either way, you'll walk away with more clarity.
