If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected, individual therapy for Adults offers a safe and supportive space to explore what is happening beneath the surface. Safe Home Psychotherapy prioritises a strong therapeutic relationship, knowing that feeling seen, heard, and respected is central to meaningful healing.
A Body-Centred Approach to Healing
My work integrates Internal Family Systems Therapy, Hakomi and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. These are gentle, body-oriented therapies that address anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and relationship difficulties. These experiential approaches help uncover unconscious core beliefs formed early in life, allowing you to update outdated patterns and make empowered choices.
Build a Respectful Relationship with Every Part of You
I also incorporate Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy, a mindful and compassionate framework that helps you build a respectful relationship with your inner world. IFS recognises that no part of you is bad. Instead of fighting difficult emotions, I help you understand and “befriend” them, restoring clarity, confidence, and self-leadership.
What You Can Expect
With me, you will learn to regulate emotions, process unresolved trauma, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with your authentic self. Many clients experience renewed hope from the very first session.
Who Is Suitable for Individual Therapy
People choose individual therapy in Sydney for many reasons, and you don't need to be in crisis to start. Some adults feel flat or restless without knowing why. Others notice old hurts resurfacing at work or in friendships. Curiosity about yourself is enough to start.
What Happens During the First Session
Our first session will involve a gentle conversation. I will ask what brought you in, what you hope for, and what support you have had before.
If you have never tried therapy, that is perfectly fine. You set the pace, and nothing needs to be rushed or re-lived until you’re ready.
Bondi Junction Clinic and Telehealth
If you are looking for individual counselling in Bondi Junction, my clinic offers a quiet, private setting for our sessions. Telehealth is also available if you live further away, travel is tricky, or you simply feel more at ease at home.
Fees and Medicare Rebates
The session costs $180. Depending on your situation, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate through a GP Mental Health Treatment Plan, so it helps to speak with your doctor first. I would rather you know the cost upfront, so please ask about fees or rebates before booking.
Choosing a Therapist Who Fits
Finding the right person matters as much as the method. When seeking individual therapy in Sydney, pay attention to how comfortable you feel with the therapist because this comfort influences everything that follows.
