CUA Health Psychologists and Therapists in Rose Bay, NSW
Many of my clients are women 50+ facing major life changes—divorce, loss, burnout, or feeling lost after years of putting others first. They want clarity, emotional ease, and a stronger connection to themselves.
I also work with individuals and couples of all ages who feel stuck and want lasting inner change. Using Internal Family Systems therapy, somatic practices, and self-compassion, I help you gently explore what’s going on beneath the surface—so you can move forward with more clarity, connection, and confidence.
I also see anyone who wants to know themselves on a deeper level, healing past trauma and attachment wounds.

When you come to therapy, you are often carrying more than the emotional pain that brought you here. Alongside the difficulty for which you are seeking help, you may also carry the uncertainty of asking for help in the first place and wonder whether you should be coping better on your own. You may feel anxious about revealing yourself to another person and wonder whether you will truly be understood.
Reaching out can be difficult. When you do, I will meet you there. Whatever brings you to therapy, and whatever anxieties accompany that step, they will be welcomed and can become part of our conversation.

I work best with individuals navigating trauma, mood or relationship difficulties, or long-standing patterns that feel hard to change. Some are dealing with anxiety, trauma or depression; others are working through complex life experiences such as past trauma, relationship issues, personality issues or loss. Often, they’ve spent years coping but feel ready to understand themselves more deeply and shift what’s no longer serving them. They’re seeking a therapy space that offers warmth, depth, and clarity, where insight leads to meaningful and lasting change.

I am an experienced clinical psychologist, with a particular interest in working with clients who have difficulties regulating their emotions (anxiety, mood, shame, anger), have interpersonal or relationship difficulties, or personality issues. I find that these people are often misunderstood by others, which leads to them misunderstanding themselves and the origin of their difficulties.

Dissociation? TRAUMA? CPTSD? Perhaps you’ve tried therapy but it hasn’t helped at a deeper level. Perhaps you've felt judged or misunderstood. Yet therapy doesn’t have to be miserable! Healing is often found in the quality of your relationship with your therapist. If you experience complex trauma and dissociation, it doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you. It just means that responses that helped you survive in the past are getting in the way in the present. Together, with patience and understanding, we can update these patterns so you can feel better. Using IFS, EMDR, Psychodynamic approaches. You are welcome to contact me.

Most issues that people experience have their origins in childhood when developmental needs were not met. Most parents mean well and do their best but because our culture is generally ignorant about the early needs of children the child has to learn how to adapt. For example a parent because of their upbringing may be easily angered. One way is for the child to move towards the parent by always trying to please the parent to ward off an angry episode. That is the behavior and the belief is "I have to be good or mummy will not love me." This establishes a mode that may not be helpful in later life in intimate relationships.

“I am so looking forward to getting to know you as a unique individual, and working together to create the life you wish for. I believe that creating sustainable change is only possible when working with people holistically.

There isn’t a day that goes by where I don’t appreciate how much of a privilege it is to get to know my clients and work together with them in a meaningful way"

I'm Jacob, founder of T.H.E. Psyborg and a counsellor who has been navigating ADHD since I was a kid. I didn't build this practice from a textbook - I built it from the inside out, because I know what it's like to be capable and inconsistent, to have the insight without the follow-through, to understand exactly what needs doing and still not be able to start.
