Psychotherapy in St Kilda
|
|
Therapy here is relational, body-aware, and practical.
We work through conversation and reflection, while also paying attention to how your body and nervous system respond to stress, relationships, and life events. Those responses aren’t “broken”, they’re often learned protections that once helped you cope. Together, my approach helps you to build new ways to develop, without the fluff! We also explore your different inner parts, the sides of you that think, feel, and react in different ways (for example: the high-achiever, the critic, the avoider, the protector). When these parts run in the background, they can drive your emotions and relationships without you realising. Bringing them into awareness helps you respond with more clarity, choice, and self-compassion, instead of feeling hijacked. This is a neuro-affirming practice. Sessions are adapted to you: your pace, your communication style, your sensory needs, and what feels safe. There’s no pressure to perform, “do therapy right,” or mask. |
Couples Psychotherapy
For partners who want a stronger, more secure connection. We focus on relational intimacy: being able to stay present with your own feelings and boundaries while staying connected to each other. The work builds emotional attunement, curiosity, and shared understanding, so you can move beyond avoiding conflict and learn how to handle challenges as a team. I provide couples counselling that is inclusive of:
Individual Psychotherapy For your ongoing growth, not a quick fix. This is about understanding your patterns, emotions, and inner world, and developing new ways of relating to yourself and others over time. The goal isn’t a perfect endpoint, it’s more self-connection, flexibility, and agency in everyday life. Self development, without the fluff! |
