I offer therapy in person in a comfortable light-filled space, or via video.
I work along side you to help manage your distress, depression or anxiety. Are you living with childhood trauma, disability, parenting issues, PND, BiPolar Affective Disorder, BPD, suicidal thinking or self-harm urges? I understand that often, in order to live a more fulfilling life, certain things may need to be either accepted or changed. It's a collaborative approach. I have a lived experience of a physical disability so know the strengths and challenges this can bring.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck between cultures, carrying trauma, or navigating complex systems alone. Many of my clients are international students, migrants, professionals in demanding roles, or individuals facing grief, burnout, family conflict, or identity struggles. They want clarity, emotional safety, and practical strategies to move forward, not just someone who listens, but someone who truly understands their lived experience.

I offer professional, face to face and zoom, counselling sessions from Annerley on a range of topics and areas of life.
Feeling tired, anxious or unsure about things can be overwhelming as the head talk gets louder, and we go into problem-solving-thought mode and we can become unclear about what the problem is. This cycle doesn't solve anything or give us clarity, it keeps nurturing the niggles and the feelings become the worries! So essentially, we start worrying about worrying and can get overwhelmed. This kind of free floating or anticipatory anxiety, doesn’t help to give us clarity or form a plan or move us forward. Instead, it takes up precious air-time and removes us from our connections, our relationships, our plans and our motivations.

Hi, I'm Meg. I like to help people with the deeper currents in their life. The ones that are a little stubborn and won't budge through intellectual understanding alone. Sometimes these are threads to past experiences needing more attention, or ways we've adapted to social pressures where there's scope for us to respond more authentically. Using a somatic approach, I can help you connect with the felt sense of these experiences and adaptations. Through deeper emotional processing it becomes possible to make changes you've been hoping for.

I offer therapy in-person and online, Monday to Friday, 9am to 2:30pm.
Are you someone seeking to deeply understand your triggers and emotional patterns, rather than just focusing on the surface-level changing of thoughts and behaviors? You may have tried other therapies without success or experienced relapse after treatment ended. Often my patients are struggling with trauma, chronic distress, or unhelpful relationship dynamics, and want to feel better and regain control. Using the trauma-informed Conversational Model, I provide a compassionate space to explore these deeper issues, fostering healing, resilience, and lasting emotional clarity.

As a therapist, I endeavour to provide a gentle, reflective space in which we can explore your inner world together. One of our deepest needs is to form meaningful emotional bonds throughout life. The ways we experience and internalise relationships, together with our temperament, shape how we develop as individuals. When emotional needs go unmet, we can develop painful feelings, beliefs, and expectations about ourselves and others that obscure our authentic selves. My approach is to help you develop insight into and work through these experiences to foster lasting growth and self-understanding.

When you’ve been carrying stress for a long time, it can feel like you're just surviving — disconnected from yourself, from others, and from the life you want to live. The body often speaks through unease, tension, or symptoms like anxiety, burnout, sleep issues, or chronic pain. These are not signs of failure — they’re messages asking for your attention and care.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.

When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.

How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
