Counselling in 3103

I use EMDR for PTSD, complex trauma, sexual abuse, victims of crime, addiction, phobia, grief and loss, dissociation, workplace/school bullying. I also provide assessments for children and adults to evaluate the diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). I also provide support and therapy for clients who are diagnosed with ADHD.

I am a friendly, relaxed, and conversational therapist who works with adolescents and adults with a range of mental health problems. I've done a bunch of things in my career but mostly use schema therapy these days because I find it gets to the heart of things most effectively. My primary focus with my clients is on building a warm, respectful, and genuine relationship through which problems can be explored and understood. From this shared understanding solutions will naturally emerge. I have particular experience helping people with personality problems, trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, addiction, and problem behaviour.

Play therapy is a child led therapeutic approach that enables children to communicate and express their innermost thoughts and feelings, through play. This allows therapists to provide intervention for a variety of support areas and mental health needs. Play therapists are informed by a child’s play, and through this we are also able to provide further support to parents and scaffold a deeper understanding of their child, using play themes.

I thrive on helping people improve the quality of their lives by better managing their mental health. Maybe you have always struggled with things like worry, stress, change or low mood. Or maybe for the first time you have encountered a challenge that is difficult to manage on your own. We all face difficult and challenging times at some point, and may need to look beyond ourselves for practical support to resolve a psychological issue. When we learn how to constructively deal with our mental health challenges, we feel more empowered and better able to pursue those things in life that fulfill us and enable us to thrive.

Better relationships are life giving but figuring out how to relate can be tricky. We oscillate between feeling connected, then disconnected and we often get stuck in a cycle of misunderstanding. Want to improve your interaction and be understood? Need help to address uncertainty and clarify need? Want insight into why you're getting stuck? Need help to brainstorm options and change the way you relate? We all struggle and we all have issues that we need to address, so let's do it... 0404 480 316

We have all been in situations that we wish were different. We want someone who listens respectfully, to support and encourage us to get through this situation stronger and to be proud of who we are.

Sandra is an experienced bilingual clinical psychologist who sees different people from all walks of life, as circumstances bring many of us to therapy at different points or phases in life and for a variety of reasons. Sandra’s therapy setting provides a caring, not judgemental, supportive space where people can feel safe to express themselves and their inner feelings and where the person can have the experience to feel held in an accepting, respectful and empathetic way. This catharsis provides the individual with a freedom to unburden, relax and try to find a new stable foundation for a more fulfilling future and experiences.

Many of our clients have been struggling for some time before they call desperate for support.
