Women’s Mindfulness Classes
Our unique blend of expertise, mindfulness and self-exploration
Welcome to Gabriella de Mori & Co Counselling- a bespoke and respected private practice for therapy in Perth that specialises in parts-work therapy for women with busy minds, big hearts and a gentle, thoughtful nature.
We’re passionate about heart-centred, non-clinical and evidence-based 1:1 therapy and holistic, supportive wrap-around support for your journey to wellbeing.
We host events, workshops, classes and mindfulness classes to extend our work into group offerings. You’re invited into a calming therapeutic environment to explore your inner world, mindfully.
Our signature events explore practices you can use for a lifetime to regulate your nervous system, ground yourself in the present moment, build insight into your inner architecture, and find inner calmness in our increasingly busy world and lives.
In small groups of 8, our classes are hosted by our talented therapists who share their areas of interest and expertise in a welcoming and exploratory way.
Upcoming Class: Meeting Yourself in Motherhood
A guided reflective workshop for mothers to explore their journey into motherhood with compassion and curiosity.
By Registered Psychologist Viola Prinz.
This special workshop is a gentle invitation to slow down long enough to notice what's happening inside you as we navigate motherhood.
Together, we'll explore the different “Mum Parts” that motherhood can bring to the surface:
“The organiser Part”, try to hold everything together.
“The guilty Part”, wondering if she's doing enough.
The “self-sacrificing part” who always puts herself last,
“the high achiever Part”, trying to get motherhood "right"
and the many, many other parts that quietly shape your experience.
Rather than judging these parts or trying to get rid of them, we'll begin understanding what they're trying to do for us, and why.
Through guided experiential practices, personal reflection, and exploring the Mum Parts Framework, you'll begin developing a different relationship with your inner world - one built on curiosity, compassion and understanding.
My own experience becoming a new Mum inspired a shift in my work to blending my extensive training in Internal Family Systems, psychology, and self-exploration through the lens of motherhood.
It’s my pleasure to offer this workshop for you, where I’ll share the most compassionate practices that supported me throughout.
Saturday 29th August | 10am-12pm | Cottesloe.
Motherhood asks more of us than we ever imagined. This is the space to bring compassion to this chapter of evolution, identity shifts and growth.
Build your self-care toolkit with mindfulness, wisdom, breathing practices and body-mind resources for greater inner clarity, calmness and connection.
Women’s Cave | Experiential Mindfulness
I’m passionate about creating safe and welcoming environments where you can be authentically yourself, drop your mask, and settle into a more soothing and still presence within your body and heart.
I invite you to ‘come as you are’ and experience mindful, therapeutic and holistic practices you can practice at home that don’t require ‘learning’, using your brain or painful processing.
The groups are small, friendly and will provide you with an opportunity to practice, explore and observe your inner world and all of the dynamic parts and constellations within you while amongst beautiful women.
These classes will be slow, simple, understated and an invitation to slow. the. hell.
~ Gabriella de Mori, Founder.
You know how to ‘do’ so much. Now let’s explore just ‘being’ and allowing stillness to be enough.
You know how to be busy, productive, loving, high-achieving and carry the mental load.
But being calm, settled and still often feels elusive. When you’re tired, burnout and have so much on your mind, focusing on healing or learning new strategies can be overwhelming. That’s why I’ve designed these simple classes for you to rest your mind, body and heart.
As a therapist, I know my clients and community and their needs, and I also know so many women feel isolated and crave genuine connection, so this is an opportunity to see other beautiful, high-functioning women in a more soulful, authentic and real way, who are all on their own journeys to feel peace.
These skills of stillness, slowing down and settling into the moment is a lost art, but together we will re-find peace within our bodies, minds and hearts, gently.
As they will be intuitively guided, I would like you to come with an open heart and let the sessions flow.
This is an opportunity to experience and practice presence, rather than using your mind and ‘learning.’ This is not a 'workshop' or 'class', but a gentle experience. There are no PowerPoint lessons!
Integrative & exploratory Classes
Each class will be different and intuitively guided and may encompass:
Guided Self-connection explorations.
Mindfulness and Meditation Practices.
Breath-focused Exercises.
Nervous system balance.
Psycho-education and strategies.
Creative and expressive exercises.
Guided journeys to slow down, settle in, and find stillness.
Poetry, contemplations and ponderings.
Sharing your journey and connecting with community.
Our events connect and land for women who:
Love connecting to other women in small group settings.
Crave structured time to slow down with an experienced guide taking the lead so you can just settle and experience the magic.
Want to be guided through unique and custom meditations.
Feel safe enough and curious to look within and explore your inner world.
Want to feel the power of group experiences, shared vulnerability and resilience building.
Are struggling with your mood, anxiety, stress or overwhelm and want to find direction to start settling and soothing internally.
Hope for new strategies and tools that settle your mind, heart and nervous system.
Don’t want to intellectualise, try hard or fight for healing anymore. You want it to unfold, slowly, and gently, with no rush.
You have an open heart and want to try new things.
Guided self-care you look forward to that’s like no other class. Our signature classes blend therapy, mindfulness and body-mind practices.
Gabriella’s Classes
In-Person classes by Gabriella are currently on hiatus as she deepens her work through her much-loved Mindfulness Sanctuary online.
You’re invited to enter her activating audio and meditation world where soothing sounds are ever present, compassion is on demand, and your daily ritual entering the Sanctuary becomes the best part of your day.
Doom Scrolling is done; soothing meditations are the new nightly routine.

Here, you'll learn to hold more of yourself with curiosity, courage and reverence.
Your inner world is about to become a far more interesting place to be.
A place you'll return to with wonder, wisdom, creativity and possibility. A place you'll enjoy returning to, again and again.
Let's follow the trail together, with awe and reverence.

An invitation to belong to yourself, again.
Whether I’m running in-person events or not, you can always access my work. I’ve created a digital Sanctuary of my work, meditations, wisdom, exploration practices and resources.
Here’s what I offer you: An invitation to belong to yourself, again.
Every day can feel exhausting when you're constantly trying to manage yourself into appearing like someone else.
When you're carrying old wounds, second-guessing your instincts, criticising yourself, or feeling disconnected from who you truly are, even the smallest interactions can feel heavy.
You may have spent years trying to fix yourself, improve yourself, or outrun the parts of you that feel difficult. Exhausting yourself trying to be who everyone else needs you to be, while denying yourself the kindness and generosity you so easily extend to others.
I believe there is an entire world within you worthy of your attention and reverence.
A world of forgotten parts, hidden strengths, old stories, dreams, fears, creativity, wisdom and possibility.
And I’m here to invite you into a new way of relating to yourself, one that finally feels good to come home to.
When you learn to turn towards your inner world with curiosity rather than criticism, something begins to soften.
You begin to feel more at home within yourself, and it feels good to be home.
Here, you're invited on guided journeys away from fearing, fixing or fighting what’s within.
You’ll soften into connecting with and welcoming more of yourself. You’ll develop greater self-trust. Backing yourself becomes quicker, steadier, more grounded. You’ll welcome lost parts of yourself home.
You’ll find more meaning, more freedom, more wonder, and a deeper sense of belonging within your own life.
This is the heart of my work.
I'm Gabriella de Mori, an experienced psychotherapist, writer and meditation teacher with over a decade of experience. I guide women through the beautifully complicated experience of being human with reverence, gentleness, Higher Self wisdom, and space for all emotions and activation.
Through experiential meditations, courses, reflections and inner journeys, I invite you to explore your inner landscape, cultivate a nourishing relationship with yourself, and discover what becomes possible when you approach your life with compassion, presence and reverence.
Take your time.
Wander gently.
Follow what calls to you.
Here, we explore in layers, not steps.
About our Founder, Gabriella de Mori
Hi, I’m Gabriella, the founder, heart and vision behind our special Private Practice and events. I’m a unique potion of academic, evidence-based therapy, alternative holistic health, somatic healing modalities and a sprinkle of magic.
I am a registered clinical counsellor who’s committed to sharing mindfulness practices to show busy, successful, productive women how to settle and soothe into an inner state of peace, no matter how familiar that feels. Compassion-focused meditation training was personally transformational and has been a foundation of my work ever since, filtering through each practice.
I’ve been seeing clients, running workshops and hosting online courses for a decade, with a much-loved library of digital resources and my Mediation Mecca where I share resources that are available 24/7. I don’t believe wellness happens only in 1-hour therapy sessions, but that wellness is a lifestyle, and we need connection practices, rituals, and support to support us throughout the day.
Our Practice is joined by therapists who share my vision and commitment to holistic well-being through evidence-based and high-level therapy. We offer a truly unique blend of experiences, skills, education and professional expertise.
“I absolutely loved it! I felt really calm and centred afterwards, which I took into the rest of my day. Thank you for making such a soul-nourishing session.”

Jana’s journey with meditation
I had never practised meditation until COVID-19 hit and forced us into lockdown. With my job going down to part-time hours, I found myself with a lot of spare time and I decided meditation was something I wanted to start implementing in my life. I started by doing Gabriella's meditations and then I signed up to her classes.
Gabriella’s meditations are the only ones I listen to. Her voice is calming, she has a variety of different lengths pending time, different themes and topics, and she knows how to take you through a process and journey.
I have been struggling with anxiety for a few years now for a variety of factors, including health, financial, relationships and career. Her meditations have allowed me to stop and reflect on some events in my life and to think deeply as to how I can change my mindset from a negative perception to a productive and “what did I learn from this experience.”
I’d recommend this course to everyone and anyone. I didn’t think I had to forgive anyone for anything, but when you really stop and think, you realise that perhaps someone once did something to you, or you to them, and we owe it to ourselves to take time out to improve our mental health and wellbeing.
Gabriella's meditations are now part of my daily routine, and I will forever be grateful for the amazing work she does.
My invitation is for you to learn to love your inner world, all of it.
Leave feeling calm, nourished, connected and peaceful

Thank you for being you, you are quite remarkable.”
