I believe that everyone has the capacity to change direction—to take a “u-turn” when life feels stuck, overwhelming, or uncertain. I have a special interest in working with children, adolescents and adults who may be apprehensive or reluctant to seek support. I am particularly skilled at engaging individuals experiencing complex challenges, including school or work avoidance, relationship difficulties, emotional dysregulation, oppositional behaviours, and strained family difficulties, emotional dysregulation, oppositional behaviours, and strained family or social dynamics.

Psychologist, MPsych, MAPS

I'm a clinical psychologist who works with people who are hoping to cope better with strong moods such as sadness, low mood or depression, anger or if feeling constantly worried, nervous or anxious. Working together we will find out how this has developed and why it hasn't gone away. In this way we can gain an understanding of the issue and develop skills and strategies to cope better right now, and to manage and/or prevent these issues from returning in the future.

Hey! I’m Sam(they/them), a queer, non-binary therapist supporting people wanting to understand themselves better or navigate life changes, anxiety, or low mood. I know first hand how empowering it can be to discover and express your authentic self in your daily life and relationships. We’ll puzzle out the unique bits that sit at your core, build community and connection, and work to find a better way forward. As an LGBTQIA+ individual, I get that not everyone sees the world the same way and welcome queer, transgender, neurodivergent (ADHD, autism, etc.) and ethical non-monogamous/poly folk to a space where you can be yourself.

I work with adults who have often felt misunderstood, overwhelmed, or stuck, or who feel their needs may not have been fully met by previous support. Common difficulties include trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, substance use, anger and emotional dysregulation, relationship difficulties, ADHD and grief. I also work with people seeking to understand and change behaviours that have at times affected their relationships, safety, wellbeing, or resulted in contact with legal systems.

Are you constantly asking yourself: ‘Why can't we stop fighting?’ ‘Why do I feel disrespected/unimportant?’ ‘Why am I dissatisfied with my life?’ 'Why do I feel anxious?'. If these thoughts are recurring often, individual, couple or family counselling will help you gain clarity, improve communication and create a more satisfied life. Strong, healthy relationships, whether social or intimate, have a positive impact on our physical and mental well-being. People with poor relationships are more likely to suffer from depression and loneliness. Living in conflict or within a toxic relationship is more damaging than being on your own.

Carers strive to balance their loved one's quality of life with their own well-being. Finding the balance to reduce burnout is a common goal. Therapy could be focused on coping strategies for processing difficult emotions or managing the logistics of ongoing problem-solving. Maintaining healthy relationships and issues with family dynamics is also a common struggle. Carers often seek support for a difficult life transition such as after receiving a diagnosis or transitioning a loved one to permanent care.

Many people come to counselling feeling stuck in survival mode. They are overwhelmed, constantly overthinking, emotionally reactive, or caught in the same relationship patterns they promised themselves they would not repeat. I work with people who are tired of analysing everything and still feeling the same. In our work together, we slow things down so you can understand what is driving your reactions, regulate your emotions, and respond differently with more clarity, control, and self-trust.

Skilled Sleep Clinical Psychology
Psychologist, PhD, PsyBA - Clin. Psych
Online Only
Many of my clients feel "wired & tired, not sleepy". They are exhausted, frustrated, & overwhelmed by chronic sleep problems. They may lie awake for hours, wake frequently, or dread bedtime because their mind won’t switch off. Others feel their body clock is out of sync, or their child is struggling with nighttime fears or disrupted sleep. They want clarity, practical guidance, and a plan that makes sense. My mission is simple - to turn sleep science into practical tools so clients can reclaim their sleep and get back to feeling themselves again—rested, clear-headed, and able to enjoy life.

Hello! have a Bachelor Degree in Naturopathy and over fifteen years of experience as a movement-oriented therapist. Using the principles of Gestalt Therapy, I offer a relational and embodied approach to my clients. I started my therapeutic journey as a client so I appreciate the courage it takes to make the first step. I understand how it feels to struggle and feel stuck. I believe that therapy is about exploring, discovering, experimenting and being vulnerable. I am originally from Brazil and I am particularly inspired by other cultures and beliefs. The process of healing is a journey that looks different for everyone.
