The power to change comes from education. You can expect your practitioner to take the time to get to know you, learn about you, and then use guided discovery to work with you so that you can understand more about how life events, your environment, and your genetic makeup are working both for and against you. We seek to give you skills that empower you to consciously choose your path with this knowledge in mind. Louise works with clients from all backgrounds and has particular experience with veterans and first responders. She has lived experience of trauma, is a cancer survivor and proud parent of twins living with a disability.

Karen is an Australian Registered Psychologist with a range of experience over clinical, vocational, and more complex settings. As well as holding full APS membership, she is also a member of the Positive Psychology, Trauma and Psychology, and Intellectual Disability and Autism groups.

I view mental health concerns and recovery as a normal part of life, and my clients as the experts in their own lives. I help people tailor proven strategies for growth and recovery that are individual to them. I work with adults of all ages, older adolescents (16+), women, men, and people from culturally diverse backgrounds. My areas of interest include: depressio, anxiety disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), perinatal mental health, sleep conditions, life transitions and personal goals, and grief and loss.

You are not alone if you are feeling overwhelmed by grief and loss, navigating your way through infertility, or struggling with anxiety or depression. It is not an easy path, but more manageable if you have a professional who can listen, validate and normalise your feelings and experiences. I can help you to acknowledge your feelings in a safe, private space; as you learn to process them; by developing healthy tools and coping strategies so you can live your best life possible. I do this through years of professional and personal experiences. I work in a person-centered way so your sessions are all about what will work best for you.

Sometimes challenging life experiences undermine our usual coping abilities. Although we can’t avoid pain, we can learn new ways to handle it so that even in the presence of the difficult stuff, we're able to shape a life that is rich, meaningful and well worth living.

I am a warm, open minded and respectful Clinical Psychologist with 15 years experience. I have a special interest in couples and relationship therapy, utilising evidence-based approaches such as the Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy to help people improve communication and increase physical and emotional intimacy. I work with people from the LGBTQIA+ community and also with diverse relationship structures (such as consensual/ethical non-monogamy (ENM/CNM) including polyamory, swinging, kink). I am neuroaffirming and trauma informed in my approach and welcome NDIS funded clients.

Hi, I'm Michelle. I am a caring and compassionate Clinical Psychologist dedicated to creating a calm and healing space for women (21 years+) where they can feel safe, heard and understood. I can help with depression and low mood, anxiety, stress and burnout, life transitions and changes, trauma and loss, relationship difficulties, perinatal mental health, self-esteem and confidence, and eating disorders. I am a holistic psychologist believing in the connection of mind and body. Without this connection we can feel out of balance, stuck or as if something is missing.

Hi, I'm Donna and I'm so glad you're here. For me, counselling isn't just about tackling mental health concerns — it's a lifeline for those going through relationship challenges, tough life events, or grappling with behavioral issues. Consider me as a caring stranger, someone here to listen without judgment. I am well-versed in discussing a wide range of topics, no matter how sensitive or personal. I understand the unique needs of our community, and I’m here to offer a broad spectrum of services to cater to your individual journey. I also specialise in the areas of grief, loss and bereavement.

You are looking for deeper understanding of yourself, your relationships and behaviours. You are becoming aware that certain patterns of feeling, behaving and believing are not aligned with who you truely are.

I am a psychologist and psychotherapist and I provide individual adult psychotherapy to persons over the age of 18. I assist people wanting change that is more focussed on deeper personal understanding rather than mere symptom relief. I help people to better understand themselves and develop more meaningful lives and thereby allow them to have more choices in life and break out of repetitive patterns that my be troubling and problematic. I aim to provide a safe space for you to feel heard and become yourself more fully. I also see people who do not have a diagnosis and are seeking personal growth.

SJ's approach is influenced by psychodynamic psychotherapy. From this framework, treatment is centred on illuminating the unconscious narratives that we all carry within ourselves, impressed upon us by our early experiences. We may find ourselves feeling stuck, indifferent, or overwhelmed, despite immense efforts to change, unaware of the repeating patterns within ourselves, and in our interactions with others. Through the exploration of the past and paying close attention to what arises in the present moment-to-moment interactions, we can come to embrace the entirety of our experience and transformation begins anew.

You will notice progress after about five sessions, with long-lasting changes. Are you feeling overwhelmed or is your ability to function limited? Have you suffered trauma, and do you think this is holding you back from living your best life? I specialise in helping individuals heal from the impacts of childhood trauma, including emotional, sexual, physical, and narcissistic abuse, as well as abandonment. I can guide you toward greater self-confidence, self-assurance, happiness, and healthier relationships, ultimately enhancing your quality of life and empowering you to make your dreams come true.

I am an AHPRA Registered Psychologist and a cognitive neuroscientist. I have a special interest and established experience working with children, parents and adult individuals with ADHD and Autism. I provide parenting support around attachment questions and challenges throughout the stages of toddler, primary school children and teens. I also have a special interest and a thorough understanding of the challenges of many different and diverse reproductive journeys, including medically assisted fertility, using an egg/sperm donor, and pregnancy loss.

My name is Kathleen (Kate) Roe. I am a GP Therapist with a special interest in whole person care and a specific focus on mental health and well-being. I am intrigued by the interweave of self (past and present), family, lifestyle, community and environment in understanding a person’s perception and experience of health and wellbeing. A GP Therapist brings together the experience of medical training as a General Practitioner with extended skills in psychological therapies or counselling. A GP Therapist has experience in caring for the mind and body and understands how these have bidirectional influences on health and wellbeing.

I have a special interest in helping people with psychological trauma (including PTSD/stress disorders), anxiety and depression, complex medical illnesses (e.g. type 1 diabetes) and issues related to spirituality or religion.

I believe people come to therapy when they are stuck, and desire change, and my theory as to this stuckness is that old ways of being with themselves or others are now not working. I have a deep passion for supporting those during such difficult or transitional moments in their life by offering a non-judgemental space and a genuine relationship built on mutual respect. My hope for you is that we can use these conditions to curiously explore and compassionately understand your concerns to find the change you seek. In its simplest form, my style is person-centered, emotionally driven talk therapy.

Misha is passionate about helping people overcome challenges & live their best lives, and is committed to busting the stigma that can prevent people from seeking support. Her holistic approach incorporates the mind-body connection, recognizing that mental well-being directly impacts physical & other forms of well-being. Misha is particularly experienced in working with severe depression and anxiety disorders, grief & loss, chronic health concerns, cPTSD and PTSD, personality vulnerabilities, and eating disorders.

As your Psychologist, I aim to provide you with an environment that fosters safety, empathy and collaboration. My therapeutic style is compassionate, warm, and down to earth. I place great importance on the therapeutic relationship, to ensure that we work together  throughout the process towards your therapeutic goals. My therapeutic approach is an integrative form of psychotherapy, using the most current evidenced-based techniques. My practice is based off of the core belief that each individual has the inherent capacity to not only overcome adversity, but to also live a meaningful and fulfilling life.
