Counselling in Carlton North, VIC
Sydney Johnstone
Psychologist, MPsych, MAPS
Verified
Once you know exactly ‘what’ to do you will quickly regain control, find your feet, and move forward. I have over 30 years experience helping people and have been a consultant in charge of a major hospital Psychology Clinic. I have also worked in an Anxiety Disorder Clinic, and Family Therapy Clinic. This level of expertise allows for accurate diagnosis and personalised treatment. I employ practical, tested methods. When you are under stress it is easy to fall into the trap of thinking that you are powerless, and that this is just the way things are. You will start to believe, “I’m not as capable as I once was"

Catherine seeks to understand her client’s experiences and their reasons for seeking therapy. She works collaboratively with her clients to support them to develop a greater connection to, and compassion for, all aspects of themselves. The importance of establishing trusting, compassionate and curious relationships with her clients is the bedrock of Catherine’s practice. Rather than viewing her clients’ challenges as ‘problems to be fixed’, Catherine provides her clients a safe space within which to heal unresolved emotional wounds and discover new and exciting ways of relating and being in the world.

I'm a clinical psychologist in private practice with particular expertise in LGBTQIA+ wellbeing. Alongside my focus on LGBTQIA+ mental health, I'm interested in working with anyone looking to learn skills to manage difficult thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I have particular interest and experience working with anxiety disorders, university students, grief (especially following a death by suicide), and unhelpful behavioural patterns (e.g., procrastination, perfectionism, people-pleasing).
Karolina Krysinska
Psychotherapist, PhD, PACFA
Verified
I am a Gestalt psychotherapist and a psychologist with 25 years of experience in the field of mental health. My work is based on respectful exploration of client’s experience in the here and now, including our ongoing psychotherapy relationship. We look together at patterns of emotional reactions and behaviours, new (yet) unfamiliar ways of being oneself and being with others, and possibilities for change and growth. My interest in Gestalt psychotherapy reflects my passion for a deeper understanding of psychological and emotional well-being and satisfactory human relationships.
Woody Balfour
Psychotherapist, PACFA
Verified
As a therapist, I understand the need for warmth and acceptance. This is the foundation of a therapeutic relationship where people can show up with aspects of themselves that are problematic and unhelpful without judgement. I can relate to very human uncomfortable and undesirable behaviors, feelings and beliefs about ourselves. Through consistent support, compassion and curiosity, positive change becomes possible.
Michael Susman
Psychologist, MPsych, PsyBA General
Verified
My approach to therapy starts and ends with what you are hoping to get out of the experience. Through an ongoing discussion between us, I will aim to understand how you wish to navigate your life more effectively. We will then work to develop greater insight into the nature of your challenges and practice skills that will help you move towards your goals and values. Through this process, we will work on lowering distress and improving your ability to function in difficult situations, instead of focusing on diagnostic labels.

Sophie Vapp
Counsellor, MA, ACA-L2
Verified
I am a compassionate human who loves to support other humans in figuring out how to live life more bravely and meaningfully. My overall approach is client-centred. I will consider you the expert in your life and will encourage exploration of your creativity, resourcefulness and strengths. The process of finding a new counsellor can take time, energy, money and courage so I offer all new clients an obligation-free 10 minute chat via phone or zoom to see if it's a good fit before we start working together.

Amelia Best
Counsellor, ACA-L1
Verified
I'll help you find a way through whatever is bothering you by teaching you a whole different way of relating to your problems that will be a total relief. The changes you make will be lasting, life-enhancing and uniquely yours. You may have never had therapy, or be like many of the people I work with and have seen lots of other therapists before, but nothing has really stuck. It could be a familiar old depression feeling creeping back in, you might be really unsure how you will get through this social isolation period without your eating disorder getting out of hand, whatever it is, I can help.

Psychotherapist, ACA-L2

Undertaking therapy is a very personal experience. A person may come to therapy to process complex trauma, work through relationship struggles, or simply desire to get to know and understand themselves more deeply. Whatever your reason for seeking therapy, the gifts born from the process of building self-awareness benefit not only you but also those around you who you love. It is profoundly humbling to support my clients to move through adversity, unpack challenging questions, grieve, transition, and move towards wellbeing. I am dedicated to the service of helping people to build agency, inner resources, and stability.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, AMHSW
Verified
So many people feel lonely and disconnected. This can have many causes - childhood trauma, bullying, there are numerous factors. This results in anxiety, depression, sometimes suicidal thoughts. I value people beginning to see their own self worth, to recover from anxiety, depression trauma, whatever has caused them problems. Wonderful to see people starting to cope better with life, to become fully alive and be able to have meaningful relationships. Whatever is causing you suffering doesn't need to continue, do the work and start to recover.

I like to take the time to deeply understand each individual client in order to cater my therapeutic approach to the individual. I see the client as the expert in the room and tap into their knowledge of themselves and their presenting issues to collaboratively work through and understand the issue together. I endeavour to help clients develop long lasting strategies and insight into themselves to be able to use and apply outside of the therapeutic space.
