Women's Issues Psychologists and Therapists in Carlton, VIC

Kate Zammit
Psychotherapist, PACFA
Carlton, VIC 3053
Not currently accepting new clients. My approach can be summarised as warm yet direct. I do not focus on analysing problems or managing symptoms, rather I work hard to uncover and address the deeper issues that are at the core of your difficulties. This includes uncovering those patterns that operate largely outside of conscious awareness. I work this way because I believe that lasting change is difficult without first understanding the patterns that are shaping our experience.

Overwhelmed? I have lived experience & extensive knowledge of the complexities of ADHD, Sensory Issues, Autism, disordered eating & chronic pain. My unique life with exposure to diversity and unexpected curveballs has shaped me into an insightful, reflective & understanding counsellor. My thirst for knowledge, hyper-focus skills and resolve to fight led to me seeking out my own answers surrounding my health. It paid off, & I hope it can now help you. I'm now mentored/supervised & trained by the MVPs in Neurodivergence & its heath complexities. I do not refuse vulnerable & complex clients; I used to be one.

Danielle Williamson
Psychologist, PsychD, PsyBA - Clin. Psych
Carlton, VIC 3053
Many people find themselves troubled by long-standing symptoms, or a sense of feeling held back by something. Often, for a range of different reasons, there have been experiences that have not been able to be spoken, and therefore silence persists when it comes to deeper longings or deciding life direction. I aim to provide a space where people have the opportunity to speak freely and be heard in their particularity; as an individual and not a label or category. I help people find creative responses to the impasses that can arise in many facets of life.

Leah Wilson
Counsellor, PACFA
Carlton, VIC 3053
The mind and body are inseparable systems. When one heals, the other follows. The mind and body are inseparable systems, constantly influencing how we think, feel, and act. When stress or uncertainty take hold, neural pathways narrow, and clarity fades. Through neuroscience-informed counselling and integrative coaching, I help you restore balance to your nervous system and strengthen the neural connections that support calm, confidence, and emotional intelligence. This is not simply about coping; it’s about rewiring the brain for long-term resilience.

You're Asian Australian, high-functioning, and carrying the silent weight of family pressure, perfectionism, and cultural beauty standards. You’ve learned that achievement is the bare minimum and emotional suppression is the only way to belong. Navigating intergenerational trauma or feeling "not Asian enough" is exhausting. ' You don't need to translate your life to get help. Previous therapy felt frustrating when explaining cultural context took up half the session. I understand why you can't just "go no contact," why career feels like survival, and why shame runs deeper than Western textbooks realize.

Hi! My name is Ray and I support clients that feel overwhelmed, stuck and disconnected from themselves who need a space to slow down, make sense of their emotions, and find steadier ground. Many people seek counselling when they’re navigating the effects of trauma, chronic stress, or complex relationships. I offer support that feels calm, respectful, and genuinely collaborative. With a trauma‑informed, humanistic, and strengths‑based approach I aim to help clients understand what’s happening inside them, develop practical coping strategies and reconnect with their values and direction.

Whether you're navigating burnout, the impact of physical health challenges, or just going through a difficult time, you don’t have to push through or struggle alone. I have experienced burnout first hand, and I understand how overwhelming it can be when it starts affecting your health and your ability to do daily tasks. This has made me passionate about sharing with people how psychology can help us to recover and heal on a mind and body level. You're not weak, crazy, or not trying hard enough... you've just not been shown any other way to do things.
