The Inner Shine Clinic - Catherine Nyika
Counsellor, AASW
Verified
Hi, I’m Catherine Nyika, the Founder and Principal Practitioner at The Inner Shine Clinic, and I am not your average counsellor and coach. I specialise in empowering women and teen girls to overcome anxiety, 'imposter syndrome" and "not enoughness" so that they can learn to shine again. I will help you to see the light inside of you that you forgot was even there and teach you the tools so that you can keep that light turned on. You find yourself here because you are searching for answers. Inner peace and freedom seems out of reach and other things haven't helped. You now recognise it's time to start to heal from the inside out.

Dr Rostik Bershadsky
Psychotherapist, PhD
Psychoanalysis perceives every person as a unique individual, principally different from others, with own life perspective, personal desires, aspirations, and strengths, as well as weaknesses, fears and concerns. In psychoanalysis there is no ‘one solution’ that fits all. Because every human being is a unique person, his/her solutions in life would be essentially individual and discovered via a journey of self-exploration, reflection, and insight within the process of psychoanalytic treatment.
Luke Mahon
Psychotherapist, MA, PACFA
Verified
In an age where we are loosing connection with our selves and others, I was inspired to establish a space to support people to manage life and all the stresses that come with it. Challenging times in life can lead to a disconnect, a sense of hopelessness, fear and isolation. It's a sign of strength to reach out for support. Humans are born wired for connection – it’s in our DNA. Through Psychotherapy, Counselling and mindfulness practices my intention is to facilitate connection, awareness and healthy emotional relationships with ourselves and in turn, those around us.

I have 10 years experience helping individuals struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and general life transitions and I can help you.
Sexual Psychology: Clinical Psyc & Sex Therapist
Psychologist, MPsych, PsyBA - Clin. Psych
Verified
I am a clinical psychologist specialising in sexual psychology. Unlike most psychologists, I have extensive experience and training in sexology. I am also distinct from the majority of sex therapists with advanced clinical psychology training. My skills, therefore, are suited to a wide variety of clients with co-occurring sexual and mental health concerns or more complex psychosocial situations. My background as a registered sexual and mental health nurse specialist provides me with a comprehensive understanding of the impact of physical illness e.g. cancer, or physical disability on individual and couple sexuality.

Lisa Hauser
Counsellor
Grief and loss, including issues stemming from the current pandemic. When the world as we know it ceases to exist, we question all we have come to expect, and we may not know how to take a step forward into a new world. Whether it is from the death of a loved, the end of a relationship, the loss of a job, or any significant, unwelcome transition we are all affected by grief at some point in our lives. As universal as grief is, our own experience of it is as unique and individual as we are. It can often feel isolating, painful, scary and/or overwhelming. There is no right or wrong way to grieve.
