David Shillington
Performance Counsellor
-
David Shillington is a mental health and performance counsellor who works with individuals, groups and businesses.
David supports others to have the tools and strategies to navigate the normal challenges of life, helping them to have the capacity to either just manage day-to-day life a little easier or to achieve their ambitious goals.
Personally, David used a counsellor as a young athlete when he struggled with the anxiety that came with his career, including the intense fear of failure and social anxiety. This professional support, alongside an ongoing and proactive approach to manage his mental health, helped him to achieve some of the highest accolades in professional sport, playing for the QLD Maroons and for Australia, and then business success once he retired. He now helps others to achieve their goals in life, sport, and business.
David favours solutions-focused therapy, personal and professional mental skills-building, and positive psychology strategies to support his clients in the workplace, naturally connecting to social settings, sport, and home life. This includes general support for:
mood and lifestyle support (movement, nutrition, sleep)
overcoming limiting beliefs
navigating conflict and difficult people
identity, values and purpose
social anxiety
confidence and motivation
goal-setting support
procrastination
managing pressure
managing burnout / overwhelm
communication and healthy boundary setting.
