About Us
Counselling Creatives
Feedback began as way to provide a safe zone for people who may not usually identify as needing mental health support.
We are here to support everyone and especially understand people working in the arts and entertainment industries as well as hospitality, small business, corporate and government agencies.
Feedback counsellors have lived and worked in similar situations as our clients and recognise the difficulties that they are sometimes faced with. We’ve seen the impact that mental health issues can have on our lives, our health and wellbeing.
We offer personalised support in a safe and private setting, to encourage and nurture our clients through times of personal crisis.
To start the conversation, please give Simon a call on 0402 714 688 or email via our Contacts page.
Feedback is a safe space where everyone is heard and all sessions are strictly confidential.
Simon Pyle
Registered Counsellor, ACA
My work has often centred around the creative, hardworking people producing Australia’s entertainment, in film, television, theatre, events and dirty rock’n’roll.
I’ve also owned and managed hospitality businesses involving complex international relationships.
I love our industries but I’ve seen the impact that working in them has on our creative teams – on personal relationships, on bank balances, on physical and mental health and wellbeing.
I became a qualified counsellor and started Feedback Counselling to support the crews and creatives onstage and behind the scenes, to help us all through the mental health challenges of our industry.
At Feedback, I ground my counselling practice with 20+years of entertainment and business experience to deliver personalised support strategies for people experiencing mental or emotional hardship.
I don’t judge. I listen and work on strategies to deal with issues as they arise on the job or at home. Together, we develop practical programs with proven techniques to use every day.
If you’d like to chat, I’d love to hear from you.
