A little about us…

Peter Hunt Counsellor Mildura

About Peter

I am a Counsellor in private practice in remote North West Victoria, Mildura. I grew up on a dairy/wheat farm and also owned my own vineyard for 10 years before beginning counselling. I went on to do six years of study for my counselling qualifications.

I work in my own private practice where I deal with a wide cross-section of areas involving individuals, couples, families, and businesses, community groups and organisations.

Mildura is a relatively isolated area and so over the years I have become a good generalist enjoying my work and finding great reward. My farming background puts me in good stead with many of the clients who are on the land as they can relate to me and I can understand their problems from first hand experience. I particularly enjoy working with individuals and couples who struggle with making sense of their predicament and facilitating their way to more successful outcomes.
