Counselling in Greater Melbourne (Metropolitan), VIC

Sometimes we don't know exactly what we need help with, but we know something needs to change. You might feel anxious or sad without an obvious explanation; or have a desire to improve your self-esteem, or get over a painful break-up. You may have experienced trauma. Using a collaborative and empathic therapeutic approach grounded in evidence-based practice, I support you to make meaning of the feelings and thoughts that contribute to psychological and emotional distress. We work together to find new, adaptive ways of being that improve your quality of life, create positive coping habits, and break unhelpful relationship patterns.

As a generalist psychologist with many years experience, I am pleased to be able to open my books again after a long and difficult few years of the COVID pandemic. My practice is once again hoping to support individuals, groups and families to improve their mental health and achieve their best lives. I myself have extensive experience in private practice, educational and clinical facilities and can facilitate this growth. I am solution-focused, client-centred, practitioner committed to achieving best practice outcomes for each individual.

I specialise in supporting clients with Complex PTSD/Relational Trauma, ADHD, Autism and maternal/paternal mental health but am not limited to these issues. I support adults of with a wide range of issues including but not limited to: depression, anxiety, stress, burnout, perfectionism, substance/behavioural addictions, self-harm and relationship challenges. Having someone truly listen and understand your experience can be a huge relief. However, the way I work involves more than just symptom management, I use approaches that have been shown to create transformational shifts and lasting change.

I work with adults and young adults to provide support through difficult periods, including anxiety and mood issues, transitions in life, relationship issues, identity and mental health problems. I can provide ADHD assessments to adults. I see my role and strength as a therapist as understanding the unique felt experience of each person I see. This forms the basis of our work together and the place from which we make sense of the difficulties that bring you to therapy.

Looking for something a little different to traditional talking therapy? Often it can be hard to find the words to express how we are feeling or what is going on in your life that is getting you down. As a Mental Health Social Worker I use my traditional counselling skills and incorporate my Sensorimotor Art Therapy skills to add deeper meaning and reflection to make sense of the world through art, creativity and play.

I have experience supporting the individuals I work with through a range of challenges, presentations and life transitions. I enjoy working alongside people in identifying their goals, values and boundaries and assisting them in developing the skills they require to feel safe and empowered in their daily lives. A lot of my work involves providing an understanding into how our early life experiences and cultural expectation can impact our relationships with ourselves, others and our interactions with the world. My areas of interest are emotional regulation, nuanced ADHD and Autism (particularly in women), parenting and Trauma.

Our experience and nurturing, client-centred approach enables us to offer effective, individualised, psychological assessment and treatment. We treat a number of psychological issues and mental health disorders using evidence-based strategies and interventions. We support individuals of all ages and provide treatment for individuals, parents/families, and couples.

This is an unprecedented time, where many individuals suffer from overwhelming stress and immense feelings of loneliness. Our psychologists provide professional, non-judgemental, client-centred, and holistic treatment to assist clients undergoing difficulties - (Director, Educational and Developmental Psychologist, Sharen Lui)

Hi, I’m Charlotte and I’m a registered psychologist (clinical registrar). My therapeutic style is warm, relaxed, and engaging. I enjoy connecting with my clients and getting to know them as individuals so that I can tailor treatment to meet their individual needs.

Naomi (she/her) brings a bright, curious and compassionate approach to her work with children (8 years +) and adults. She will listen carefully and ask thoughtful questions to help clients make sense of their experience and find ways forward. Naomi operates from a neurodiversity affirming and trauma informed approach. Naomi is an advocate of people from all genders and sexualities. She has a strong research background (trauma and PTSD) and brings that same curiosity and knowledge of the evidence base to her work with clients.

Whether you've seen many therapists in your time or this is your first venture into the world of therapy and counselling, it would be my pleasure to support you. Finding a psychologist can be a daunting process, therefore when we meet, I'll provide a calm, relaxed and welcoming environment, and will take the process at your pace. I see adults and young children, and my previous experience as a dancer and teacher brings forth a warm and educational experience to the therapy room.

I specialise in developing an understanding of and treating children, adolescents and adults struggling to cope with challenges related to the past. I treat behavioural difficulties, emotional dysregulation and a broad range of presentations due to complex trauma. I have a particular interest in early life experience and the impact on attachment relationships. I am referred patients through Psychiatrists, Paediatricians, GPs and families seeking an alternative treatment to the usual medication focussed response to ADHD, ODD and ADD presentations and abuse. I undertake psychodynamic assessment and treatment that gets great results.

I have a strong interest in supporting women and girls to foster a positive self-image through self-compassion and self-awareness. My work centres on recognising and processing trauma, as well treating depression, anxiety, body-image dissatisfaction, grief, and relationship difficulties. I also work with women through the perinatal and postnatal period. In addition to therapeutic work, I conduct clinical assessments for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and seek to facilitate empowered and affirming relationships with neurodiversity.
