Katy Bray
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP, Dip Therapeutic Counselling
What makes my practice special is the importance I place on building a genuine, trusting relationship where you feel comfortable to be yourself, without fear of judgement. I bring warmth, empathy, curiosity and a genuine interest in understanding each person as an individual. My previous experience in education, alongside my own personal journey, has shaped my understanding of how our experiences, relationships and early life messages influence who we become and how we navigate the world.
I believe counselling is more than simply talking about difficulties. It's about feeling heard, making sense of your experiences, developing self-awareness and discovering new ways of understanding yourself. I value working collaboratively, at your pace, recognising that you are the expert in your own life.
I hope to offer something meaningful: a space where you feel accepted, understood and supported, with the opportunity to explore, grow and make changes that feel right for you.

Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Therapist, Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) – PACFA Reg. Clinical 26570
Holding a grounded stance of compassion, empathy, non-judgment and light-hearted curiosity, I provide a safe and reflective space for clients to explore and gently unpack their lives. While clients may initially seek support for concerns such as anger, anxiety, compulsive sexual behaviours, relationship difficulties, or other presenting issues, my experience has shown that the underlying dynamics are often more complex than they first appear.
My therapeutic ethos is centred on not viewing clients as problems to be fixed, but as individuals whose struggles deserve to be witnessed with respect, depth and thoughtful exploration. I work collaboratively, supporting clients to develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience and clarity about how they wish to live.
I am of South Asian heritage, raised in London, and have lived in Sydney for over 30 years. Having straddled Eastern and Western cultures, including the particular nuances of my Indian background, I bring a culturally informed and integrative perspective to my practice. My earlier corporate career and lived experience of family life in Australia, alongside my own encounters with anxiety, stress and periods of low mood, have deepened my understanding of the pressures many clients face.
My personal journey toward greater meaning, purpose and self-understanding informs my belief in psychotherapy as a transformative process. I am committed to supporting clients in cultivating insight, living more consciously, and moving toward lives that feel authentic and self-directed.
If this approach resonates with you, I welcome the opportunity to connect.

Mandy Randall-Gavin MBACP, UKATA
Counsellor/Therapist, BA Hons, Dip TA Prac: UKATA
Life can feel hard. I’m dedicated to providing a safe, non-judgmental space for my clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. I often incorporate mindfulness techniques to support clients through challenging situations including grief, loss, abandonment, relationship issues, as well as anxiety and depression. If you're feeling stuck for any reason, I can offer a safe, holding space to listen to you and work with you to gently challenge how you think, feel and behave. I'll work at your pace and may use mindfulness or creative interventions to aid our work together, as well as grounding techniques to turn down any overwhelm or white noise. I also do 2-chair work to help with ways of communicating, as well as processing loss and bereavement.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I've spent over thirty years helping people make sense of complexity.
Today I work as an Integrative Arts Psychotherapist and Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner, helping people make the invisible visible. Whether someone comes because they're anxious, overwhelmed, caught in painful relationship patterns or simply feels stuck, I'm interested in helping them understand themselves more clearly by noticing the patterns they couldn't previously see.
Before retraining as a psychotherapist, I spent many years in design and technology. That background continues to shape how I work. I'm naturally curious about patterns, systems and the relationships between different parts of a person's life. Sometimes we simply talk. Sometimes images, objects or simple creative materials help make sense of experiences that words alone can't fully describe. There is never any expectation to be artistic.
I work in an active, collaborative way. I won't rush you towards solutions, but neither will I sit back and simply listen. Together we'll become curious about what's happening beneath the surface so that, once those patterns become visible, different choices become possible.
