About
Eerin Dare
BSW, GDFDR, EMDR (Master Class and Structural Dissociation)
Eerin Dare is an experienced and compassionate Accredited Mental Health Social Worker and private practitioner, dedicated to supporting individuals, families, and communities through complex mental health challenges. With over four years of clinical experience in private practice, Eerin has built a reputation for delivering trauma-informed, person-centred care that is both evidence-based and deeply empathetic.
Eerin specialises in working with complex trauma, including presentations involving attachment disruption, domestic and family violence, substance use, and co-occurring mental health conditions. Her advanced training in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), including Master Class and Structural Dissociation, enables her to effectively support clients experiencing chronic and developmental trauma, where traditional therapeutic approaches may be less effective.
Her therapeutic approach is integrative and tailored, drawing from a range of modalities including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma-informed frameworks. Eerin is particularly known for her ability to create a safe, non-judgemental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to engage in meaningful change.
In addition to her clinical work, Eerin is a qualified Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner, bringing a strong understanding of conflict resolution, family dynamics, and child-centred practice. She works collaboratively with individuals and families to navigate high-conflict situations, prioritising safety, communication, and sustainable outcomes.
Eerin has extensive experience across mental health, disability, and NDIS sectors, supporting clients across the lifespan and from diverse backgrounds. Her work is grounded in a strengths-based philosophy, recognising each individual’s capacity for resilience, growth, and recovery. She is passionate about improving access to quality mental health care and empowering clients to build insight, develop coping strategies, and achieve lasting wellbeing.

Daisy Kinder
I am an Accredited Counsellor (ACA) currently completing a Master of Counselling (MA).
I take an integrative approach, drawing on evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and I am currently undertaking advanced training in Schema Therapy. I believe the therapeutic relationship is central to positive change, and I work collaboratively with clients to support growth, resilience, and wellbeing.
I have experience working with children and supporting individuals with neurodivergence. My approach centres on creating a safe and encouraging environment where clients feel confident to explore challenges and build on their strengths.
Originally from England, I have now made Mount Gambier my home. I offer clients both a supportive space and a fresh perspective from outside the local area, which many find helpful when exploring personal challenges.
