We are located at 39 Howard Street in Nambour, within easy walking distance to the Nambour CBD, train station and shopping centre.

We are on the lookout for passionate counsellors, social workers or allied health clinicians to join our community-minded practice. Rental options include by the hour, day or weekly, on both a casual and permanent basis. 

Sankofa (SAHN-koh-fah) – A Twi word from the Akan Tribe of Ghana that loosely translates to, “go back and get it.” Its literal translation comes from the Akan proverb, "Se wo were fi na wosan kofa a yenkyiri," meaning, "It is not taboo to go back for what you forgot (or left behind)." Sankofa is a phrase that encourages learning from the past to inform the future, reaching back to move forward, and lifting as we climb.
