Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Anxiety often shows up as a constant hum of overthinking, hypervigilance, or a body that won’t settle even when nothing is visibly wrong. I help clients trace where that pattern comes from, whether it’s tied to early experience, unresolved trauma, or the pressures of a demanding professional life, and build a clearer, calmer relationship with themselves. My approach blends the practical structure of CBT with the deeper relational work of Transactional Analysis, so clients leave not just with coping strategies but with a genuine shift in how they see themselves and respond to the world.

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.
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 to assist you further where requested.
I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying and often subconscious cause. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties from fear or anxiety 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.

Uri Bookman
Counsellor/Therapist, PACFA Registered Clinical Counsellor (30041), Relationship & Couples Counsellor, Certified Coach
As a PACFA Registered Clinical Counsellor (30041), I work with thoughtful, capable adults who may understand their anxiety intellectually yet still find themselves reacting when triggered. Together, we look beneath the anxiety to understand the patterns, triggers and underlying dynamics driving it. Rather than only managing symptoms, the work develops greater awareness and capacity to respond differently, creating more clarity, choice and inner space.

Anxiety can feel overwhelming, like it’s in the driver’s seat of your life. In our work together, we can gently explore the parts of you that hold fear and worry, and uncover the protective roles they’ve been playing. As an example you can learn to connect with these parts from a place of compassion, you’ll begin to feel more calm, confident, and in charge. Healing is possible—and you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re ready to find relief from anxiety and reconnect with your Self, I’m here to support you.

Irene Valis
Counsellor/Therapist, Gestalt Psychotherapist, PACFA Certified Counsellor, Life Coach
I know first hand how anxiety or unprocessed fears can show up in our body and our mind - overthinking, imaging worst-case scenarios, heart racing. It can feel like sensations in our body are turned up full volume and as if everything else feels very far away and out of reach; it can be quite a destabilising and isolating experience. But it doesn´t have to be.
Through support and training, I have learned to regulate and resource myself in times of worry and panic, to the point that I am hardly ever activated, and when I am, I know how to ride the wave with confidence and ease.
I now pass on these practices with the women I serve who experience great relief from being able to brave the elements when their anxiety storm arises, empowering them to the point that the frequency, duration and intensity significantly reduces and they finally feel a sense of peace and calm within themselves again.
