Counselling in 4068
Since 2005, I have worked as a psychotherapist and social worker in a range of human service and community work settings. My clinical practice has been shaped by people's experience of chronic illness, natural disasters, trauma, disability, mental ill-health, ageing, grief and loss. I consider the therapeutic space to be a safe and enriched environment. I strive to bring a gentle curiosity to these explorations, and to acknowledge the importance of working at your pace. Central to my work is a belief in our capacity for insight, creativity, and growth – particularly in response to the difficulties we face.

I am a Clinical Psychologist who works with children, adolescents, and adults seeking understanding, clarity, and support during times of change or challenge, and offer Saturday and evening appointments.

Looking for a queer, neurodivergent and culturally affirming counsellor? Hi! I'm Mariyah (she/her), a registered counsellor. I have a strong curiosity for people, the human experience and assisting people in achieving their best potential and life goals. I'm passionate in working with individuals in the LGBTQ+, culturally diverse, and neurodivergent communities and others who experience mental health concerns. I enjoy taking a person-centered approach where you lead where our sessions go — whether that is to “fix” a particular problem you’re experiencing, or to better understand yourself.

As a qualified career counsellor, I work with people who feel unsure about their next step in work, study or life direction. This includes adults navigating career change, young people planning pathways, or anyone feeling overwhelmed by decisions. I offer a steady, practical space to slow things down, make sense of what’s happening and move toward choices that feel clearer and more aligned.

You're Asian Australian, high-functioning, and carrying the silent weight of family pressure, perfectionism, and cultural beauty standards. You’ve learned that achievement is the bare minimum and emotional suppression is the only way to belong. Navigating intergenerational trauma or feeling "not Asian enough" is exhausting. '
You don't need to translate your life to get help.
Previous therapy felt frustrating when explaining cultural context took up half the session. I understand why you can't just "go no contact," why career feels like survival, and why shame runs deeper than Western textbooks realize.

My ideal client is an everyday adult who is managing multiple responsibilities while quietly carrying emotional exhaustion. They are responsible, capable, and outwardly coping, but inwardly feel overwhelmed, unseen, or emotionally drained. They do not see themselves as “in crisis” but sense that something is off and unsustainable. What they seek is not quick advice, but a safe, culturally understanding space to be heard, make sense of their emotions, and learn healthier ways to cope - without judgement, pressure or guilt.

On leave until July 2026. I enjoy working with individuals who want to understand how unconscious processes and patterns are manifested in their present-day behaviour. I work with individuals who have past trauma that they would like to heal from; individuals who wish to be able to form nourishing and reciprocal relationships; individuals wanting to understand and accept all parts of themselves; and individuals who want to understand and process their childhood experiences to be able to approach parenting their own children differently.
