Adults Counselling in Fitzroy North, VIC

Hi I'm Lauren, an engaging and caring psychologist with a range of experience working with adults experiencing anxiety, social anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal and relationship difficulties, LGBTQIA+ related concerns, sexual health and intimacy concerns, and difficulties with self-esteem. I aim to work collaboratively and provide a safe space for the expression of ones authentic self. I strive for a strong and honest therapeutic relationship, and believe this creates an opportunity for people to explore what is causing their difficulties whilst also facilitating the space for growth and change.

I have a warm, collaborative approach, and adapt therapy to suit my client's needs. I can help with anxiety, mood issues, trauma in all its manifestations, postpartum issues, identity issues, substance use issues, relationship & attachment, burnout & workplace stress. I'm committed to helping individuals heal from the past, work toward regaining a sense of control, stop self-defeating cycles of behaviour, whilst recognising when they're being held back by past issues. My special interests include psychological trauma, burnout and vicarious trauma, coping styles, attachment/relationships, PTSD and anxiety issues.

Hi, my name's Michele and I offer counselling and psychotherapy to adults who are experiencing emotional distress that prevents them from functioning well in their work and personal lives. You may want to see a psychologist if you are experiencing excessive worry, panicky feelings, low mood, low energy or loss of interest in things. You might be going through a life transition, experiencing grief after a loss or having relationship difficulties. You may have grown up having painful and difficult experiences early in life which prevent you from functioning freely and creatively, or from forming positive relationships with others.

I am passionate about supporting and helping individuals, families who feel trapped in their trauma symptoms. I am Somatic Experiencing, Accredited EMDR and Havening Practitioner. I support people with Complex PTSD issues. There is a common belief that the trauma is the result of individual's thinking pattern, which is misleading. Any traumatic experiences registered somatically, therefore the trauma work will be somatically oriented, which aims to clear the symptoms from the whole system.

I offer a space for individuals to enhance their understanding of how they relate to the world, themselves, and others. I assist individuals in exploring current, and enduring difficulties they may have that are impacting their ability to live life in a way that they consider to be meaningful. I often meet with individuals who are interested in exploring facets of their lives untouched by previous therapeutic endeavors. I am engaged with existential literature and eastern thought and religion, specifically that of Zen Buddhist practice, in particular their application to therapy.

Life can be hard, uncertain and confusing, and yet there is an expectation that we inherently know how to live and relate well. This is a fallacy. The realms of the personal are complex, made even more complex when two or more lives come together in relationship. Guidance, mentorship, support and education are necessary elements to navigating the vicissitudes of life and relationship. I therefore guide my clients (individuals, couples and other relationships) through a unique exploratory process of understanding, discovery and growth.

We believe that change comes from within yourself and thats why we help to overcome negative beliefs and deal with emotions that can keep us stuck in unwanted behaviour. To build a stronger foundation for yourself and develop effective coping behaviour call 0449 861 147
