I offer one-on-one counselling and psychotherapy sessions in Brunswick, working with people who are ready to develop greater awareness, process unresolved experiences, and build better relationships.
How I Work
My approach draws from Gestalt, Process-Oriented, and Transpersonal methods. These are experiential sessions that include your mind, body, and spirit in addressing whatever you bring. Rather than just talking, we might work with breathing, body awareness, dreams, or other ways of exploring what's present for you.
Each session is shaped by what emerges and what feels most helpful in the moment. Some people find this different from traditional talk therapy, and that's intentional—I believe healing happens through the whole person, not just through thinking about problems.
What People Bring to Sessions
I work with people experiencing:
- Anxiety and depression
- Trauma and its effects
- Grief and loss
- Physical pain that seems connected to emotional experiences
- Relationship patterns they want to understand or change
- A desire for psychological integration
- Interest in shadow work—exploring parts of themselves they've pushed away
- Simply wanting to explore their inner world more deeply
About the Process
Sessions are experiential, which means we work with what's actually happening in the present moment. This might include noticing body sensations, following your breath, exploring a feeling, or working with imagery. I pay attention to the whole person—not just your words, but how you sit, breathe, and move through the world.
Some sessions involve breathwork. Others focus on dialogue between different parts of yourself. We might explore dreams, work with creative expression, or simply sit with what's present. The approach adapts to what you need.
Location and Community
You can find us at 503 Sydney Road, Brunswick, near the corner of Blythe Street and Sydney Road. The area has a good mix of creativity and groundedness that fits well with this kind of work.
Parking: There is 2-hour parking available on Sydney Road, but please note the clearway times—city bound in the morning and on the other side in the afternoon. Plan accordingly to avoid any parking issues.
I serve people from across Melbourne's inner north, with clients coming from Brunswick, Fitzroy, Carlton, Coburg, and other nearby areas.
Getting Started
If you're curious about this approach or think it might be helpful for what you're experiencing, we can start with a conversation. I'm happy to discuss what you're looking for and whether working together makes sense.
The work requires some openness to exploring beyond just talking, but you don't need any special experience or preparation. You just need to be willing to see what emerges when we create space for it.
