Julia Derry, Collaboration Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Master of Social Science (Human Services Counselling)
Clients have commented on how I have a warm, kind and gentle nature. I think it’s these qualities that help create a safe, honest and genuine connection with people. When you have a genuine relationship where you feel safe, cared for and understood, you can explore a better way forward together.

Rhiannon Derrig - Sexuality And Relationships (Sentient)
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist, PACFA; Psychosexual Therapist
As a registered psychosexual therapist, I specialise in helping individuals with trauma and PTSD, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, and sexual difficulties, including intimacy and trust. I am also passionate about providing support for navigating gendered, sexual, racial, and neuro diversity, and cultural identities, who may experience discrimination or internalised stigma.
Centering unconditional positive regard, I work closely with the client to deeply explore how their past experiences, current situations, family background, and social elements of their lives have impacted their wellbeing. I then work together with the client to explore how they navigate life within their social and environmental surroundings, as well as how to establish an environment and support system that is conducive to growth and healthy self-esteem.
As a therapist, I deeply value sex positivity, social justice and removing the stigma and social constraints surrounding mental health work. I also aim to move away from binary and the pathologisation of queerness and neurodiversity, and provide dedicated support for people who feel they fall outside of the margins of the dominant societal group.
Peer support towards queerness and neurodiversity is an important therapeutic element that I provide - living actively in the queer community and with neurodiversity myself, I am able to genuinely connect with others who may identify with similar experiences.

Jeannine
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist (MAPS)
Jeannine works with woman who are anxious, worried and exhausted, doubting or invalidating the difficult feelings that come from giving too much to others or putting themselves last. By doing this they are losing the wisdom that comes from noticing and acknowledging how they really feel and what they need to change.
She works collaboratively with clients to understand how they got to this place, what’s important to them, and how to gain more confidence, balance, joy and well-being in their lives.
