Many of my clients feel overwhelmed by past experiences, stuck in patterns they can’t shift, or unsure how to heal old emotional wounds. They are struggling with symptoms of anxiety, depression and stress that affect all areas of their lives including their relationships and work. They want relief, clarity, and a sense of inner calm and confidence. They’re seeking a safe, supportive space to understand themselves, process trauma, and reconnect with what matters to them.

Jodie Arnot
Counsellor, MA, PACFA

Are you always putting everyone else first, while your own needs keep getting pushed aside? You may feel exhausted, invisible or unappreciated, yet struggle to ask for what you need without guilt. Perhaps setting boundaries feels selfish, or saying “no” feels impossible. I work with women who are ready to stop abandoning themselves to keep everyone else happy. Together, we can explore your needs, strengthen your boundaries, and help you create relationships where there is room for you, too.

Psychologist, PhD, PsyBA - Clin. Psych

My clients range from people who are high functioning but internally overwhelmed, to those living with chronic illness or long standing mental health difficulties. They may experience anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, trauma, relationship difficulties, or a sense of being stuck or worn down by ongoing symptoms. Many want clarity, stability, and a way to live more meaningfully alongside distress, rather than feeling defined or controlled by it. Sessions are $250, with a Medicare rebate of approximately $149.05 available for those with a Mental Health Care Plan, making the out-of-pocket cost around $100.95 per session.

Counsellor, MA, ACA-L4

Are you wondering whether your relationship can change, or why your past relationships haven't worked? I can help. I work with men, women, and couples who are ready for things to change. About half my clients come alone, they're tired of repeating the same patterns in how they connect, fight, or shut down. The other half are couples carrying years of conflict, distance, or pain. Affairs, power struggles, mismatched desire - these are hard, but they're not hopeless. I offer a clear, structured approach to help you understand what's really going on and actually create meaningful change.

Insession Counselling
Psychologist, MSc, PsyBA General
Serves Area
I'm Sanduni, a psychologist and South Asian Woman of Colour with over 10 years of experience in the mental health sector. I started Insession Counselling to provide therapy to people from all cultural backgrounds, gender identities and sexual orientations. Navigating my own experiences of marginalisation and intersectionality as a queer Sri-Lankan woman has allowed me to truly understand how culture, gender and sexuality shape so much of who we are and how we experience relationships. I combine this lived experience with evidence-based psychological interventions so that the therapy you receive is tailored specifically to you.
