Christian Counselling &
Family Therapy

 

Welcome to Pure Heart Therapies, an honouring and compassionate space for individuals, couples, and families to share, process and reflect on their unique stories, including the influence of families of origin.

Every person has a unique and beautiful story to share. Woven within these stories is a complex tapestry of context, relationships and life stages. Every individual, whether as a couple or a family, exist within the context of culture, spirituality, socio-economic status and societal norms. Often during seasons of both welcomed and unforeseeable change, difficulties and tensions arise within close relationships. Such life stages can include divorce, marriage, grief and loss, moving countries, commencing a new job, the birth of a child or financial difficulties. 

It is my greatest honour to learn alongside of you, as you bravely share your story. It is my desire that you would feel seen, heard and valued as we explore your heritage and current difficulties through the lens of strengths. That you would understand the rich and complex interwoven tapestry of culture, relationships and life stages and their influence on your journey and presenting difficulties. As we momentarily stop, looking back in order to understand yourself, it is my hope you would feel inspired and encouraged to step forward into the future and culture you have always desired. Rewriting your future chapters and the legacy passed down through the generations. 

About Sarah

Hi, my name is Sarah and this is my wonderfully beautiful, imperfectly, perfect family of four. My heart and soul in the flesh, my greatest teachers, and constant reason to grow.

Sarah Sibi Thomas, and family on Tamborine mountains sharing moments of love, bonding and connection.
In July 2018, I married my husband, exactly one year after meeting him (when you know, you know). A girl who grew up barefoot on a farm in Byron Bay, surrounded by three generations of her family and a boy from Kerela, India where their hearts, arms and homes are always open. One thing that drew us together was our obvious love for our families and a strong desire to raise one of our own (and fast).
 
On our wedding day we vowed to always learn from one another’s rich and vastly different cultures. To take the best of the East and the West and create our own unique “Kingdom Culture”. We were committed to learning and growing alongside of each other, building on strengths and breaking generational patterns that would not serve our family. Choosing to rewrite our children’s royal legacy.
 
I would love to say it’s been all rainbows and butterflies, and that we’ve stayed true to our vows. But the truth is, like all marriages and all new parents (of every culture) we’ve worked hard to learn, unlearn, and relearn ways of embodying our desired Kingdom culture.

As seasons of transition, grief, hardship and even welcomed change have presented, we have been forced to look inwards and backwards, to understand who we are, in order to become who we want to be. We’ve attended numerous courses on marriage and parenting and invited counsellors, mentors and close friends to help us explore our past, our cultural heritage and our unique family upbringing. All in the hope to better understand ourselves and our present context, to create the desired future for our little princess and prince.
 
We’ve chosen to press into the uncomfortable and turn our hearts towards each other. To really listen and learn one another’s language. To forgive and let go, time and time again. To keep our hearts pure and available for what matters the most. Choosing to unravel and understand generations of communication and behavioural patterns, traditions, mindsets, and cultural values to find one another’s inherited strengths and learn what serves our unique family best.
 

Have we got “there” yet? No. Will we ever be “perfect”? No way. But perfection isn’t the goal is it? And the journey we have been on together and the story and family legacy we continue to create with our children, is my biggest inspiration for Pure Heart Therapies.

The battles we have fought, the victories we have won, and all of the learning along the way. If it was all just to help one other person, couple or family. If it was all just to help you. It would have all, been worth it.

Appointments are now available face to face on the Gold Coast, Queensland or Online via Telehealth.
