In Person Counselling in Aberfeldie, VIC

Hello, I'm Dallas. I'm a queer, non-binary, disabled therapist. I specialise in supporting people with diverse identities and experiences, to meaningfully move towards their mental health and wellbeing goals. I have extensive experience working with LGBTQIA+ folks, neurodivergent people, those living with PTSD and people with eating disorders. I pay my respect and gratitude to the traditional owners who sustain the land I benefit from and acknowledge I am a settler on unceded land.

Avrille Burrows is a Naarm (Melbourne) based South Asian Mental Health Clinician and Arts Therapist. She has worked for over 12 years with people from various backgrounds who have experienced trauma such as family violence, abuse, and loss. She understands how these can impact our relationships, confidence and the toll it can take on our physical body with symptoms such as headaches, pain, depression, anxiety and stress. As a migrant, woman of colour and mother, Avrille understands the complexities of navigating culture, identity, family dynamics, and raising children as a settler on this land.

I am a psychotherapist, Medicare approved Clinical Social Worker, a trauma trained EMDR and Eating Disorder therapist. Off late, you may have noticed emotions and thoughts continue to rule your life, and no matter how hard you try, it never feels 'good enough'. You find yourself stuck in the cycle of 'wanting to please others' while feeling unseen and unheard. You now know that your anxiety and need for control is no longer serving you. You want to start honouring yourself and your needs, even when if it feels hard.

Couples Therapist and Individual Psychotherapist. When we experience anxiety, depression, hurt, anger, grief, illness, or when there are ruptures in our relationships, it is signalling our deepest wounds. My therapy approach is an heroic journey, which supports to restore wholeness and reclaim core powers to live a more balanced and joyful life.

I have 20 years experience with complex mental health issues across the age spectrum. I offer a kind, empathetic service to families and individuals using my skills as a family therapist and mental health clinician. I welcome individuals and families who represent marginalised communities, (neurodiverse, LGBTQIA, culturally diverse, and anyone who has ever been “othered”) and provide a service that is inclusive and affirming whilst utilising an anti racist and decolonized lens.

I love supporting BIPOC, neurodivergent and LGBTIQA+ folks to navigate through a range of traumas and distress such as intergenerational, personal or community traumas. People are often curious about how their body might hold onto emotions, feelings, memories or experiences and how these manifest in everyday interactions both internally and externally which I support them to explore. Folks who are a great fit for me are attempting to bring healing and understanding to difficult moments in their life in a way that allows space for peace and calm in both the body and mind
