The William Street Family Therapy Centre offers tailored support for professionals and clients with a focus on improving relationships and communication. Since 1987, the centre has provided innovative training, therapy and products to thousands of clients, students and practitioners.
The Centre is housed in a classic Australian Federation ‘turn of the 20th century building’, with its trademark high ceilings, polished wood floor boards and stained glass doors and windows.
in 1997 a new wing was added to the Centre. This was to better cater for the ever expanding requirements of both the community and health professionals.
Professional consulting rooms were made available for a variety of health and allied professionals on a full-time, part-time or as required basis. For bookings or further information please call (08) 9227 8038.
Aldo also founded the Relationship & Growth Centre which was established to offer self-help video and audio tapes designed to improve relationships at different levels. They include BETTER COUPLE COMMUNICATION, & FAIR FIGHTING (for couples having difficulties in their communication and conflict resolution) and PARENTS’ DRUG SURVIVAL KIT, & KIDS’ DRUG SURVIVAL KIT (for families who are experiencing early substance use by their children).These products offer people the opportunity to improve their skills of communication in the comfort of their own home. They have both “do-it-yourself manuals” as well as “professional manuals”, and can be used by individuals, couples & families, as well as professionals helping clients.
Over many years many clients and trainees have used the services of the WILLIAM STREET FAMILY THERAPY CENTRE. We welcome feedback from our clients and as standard practice we ask for objective feedback from any professionals who attend short or long-term training courses at WSFTC. Below is a sample of the regular feedback we have received:
“I would highly recommend this course as it provides an excellent hands-on experience way of learning and developing skills.”
“At an educational level I have learnt so much…the group debates … so many different perspectives … very enriching and stimulating. …allowed each of us to find our own way of working and this was actively encouraged and supported in the work. In both years I found the notes that trainers and trainees provided were good reference material and excellent pointers for further work there was real learning by everyone in our group regardless of the level of their experience."
"The therapist demonstrated just listening…when someone was incredibly emotional’ and his responses to such situations ‘were reassuring and kept everything calm, whereas perhaps as a family we had a tendency to get really panicked and implode at those points"
“As an individual he (the therapist) is just great, he’s got great listening skills and he’s got that way of soothing things down and putting things into perspective and giving you a different way of looking at things.”
