Mathew Bergan
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist and Counsellor (Grad Dip)
I support LGBTQIA+ people by providing a safe, affirming, and non-judgmental space to explore identity, relationships, and experiences of minority stress or marginalisation. Together, we navigate challenges such as family estrangement, chosen family dynamics, coming out, or gender-affirming experiences at a pace that feels right for you. My approach honours lived experience and values authentic connection to yourself and your community.

Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
Working with the queer community is one of my main focusses. Being part of the LGBTQ+ community myself, I know how important it can be to have a therapist that understands the nuances of living as a queer person in the heteronormative world. I help clients navigate issues around identity, sexuality and relating. Book a free 15 minute phone consult via my website to discuss more.

LGBTQ+ Issues
Colin Longworth - HPCCH Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Psychology & Counselling Services
Psychologist, MAPS, B Psych ECowan, GradDipCounselMurdoch,
As a mature-aged Gay man myself, I have "been around" long enough to have experienced a range of things that a younger Gay person may not have. These include the Gay male sex being illegal; the devastation of HIV/AIDS; the Marriage Equality debates; issues around "Special Religious Rights"; discrimination and "less than equal" treatment.
I combine this knowledge and experience with my psychology, counselling and clinical hypnotherapy training, to seek to assist clients. This is also assisted by regularly reading relevant books and research, on e.g. Heterosexism or homophobia, developing and strengthening resilience to microaggression's etc.
One thing I regularly do, (not just for LGB clients, but clients in general) is suggest books to read, or movies to watch, that may be of use, or as something to prompt thought on aspects of what the client has come to see me about.
Although I've had a few trans clients, issues around transition are not really a subject I feel competent to deal with, although I certainly feel I may be able to assist with discrimination and related issues, apart from issues around microaggression's, anxiety, depression and the collection of other issues clients may come to see me about.
