Substance Abuse
Andrew Robertson
Counsellor/Therapist, Master of Counselling and Applied Psychotherapy, Advanced Clinical Skills in Gestalt Psychotherapy
As a therapist at one of Australia's leading treatment centres, South Pacific Private Hospital, I was privileged to work with a wide variety of clients in their recovery from both substance and process addictions. Addictions are generally only symptoms of deeper issues, many of which have their roots in our childhood developmental experiences. By addressing those more fundamental issues, clients are able to interrupt the cycle of insanity that is addiction. At SPPH, I ran groups for addiction generally and for sex addiction in men.

Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
Addiction is a physiological process. It doesn't happen because you are 'weak', 'defective', or in some way inferior. In addressing addictions, I draw upon physiology and neurobiology to understand how it happens and how it can be overcome. Acknowledging the addiction and the role it is playing in your life is often the first step in addressing what lies underneath it: for example, depression, anxiety, unresolved trauma. I then use my integrative psychotherapy approach to collaborate with you in a unique treatment approach that fits your exact needs.

Substance Abuse
Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
My focus is in supporting harm minimisation strategies that can feel practical for your circumstances. I understand that abstinence is not always the goal for every individual and this is not a focus unless you desire this particular goal. I can also utilise various assessments to measure the severity of a specific problem, as well as determining your progress within therapy. I can provide a copy of these for your doctor or other treatment provider to assist you further where requested.
My aim is to then assist you with your life difficulties to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Substance Abuse
Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
I have worked with both young people & adults with substance misuse/abuse issues & those with diagnosed addictive behaviour. Using motivational interviewing & elements of CBT, I work with a person-centred & strengths based approach to tailor treatment to the personal needs of the individual & their significant others. I understand that recovery can be difficult & how important it is to move at the pace of the indiviudal seeking support. I work on the basis that relapse is part of the process & as discouraging as this can be, it is important to use these set backs as a learning opportunity to better enable the individual to make recovery stick the next time around.
