Jaya Bhaskar - Ropana Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Counsellor/Therapist, Life Coach, ACA-L3
Hi there! As a counsellor, I am deeply committed to providing a safe, supportive, and empowering space for anyone seeking guidance and healing. My journey into counselling comes from a profound belief in the transformative power of human connection and the resilience of the human spirit.
I believe that each person's journey is unique, shaped by their experiences, challenges, and aspirations. With empathy as my compass, I will strive to meet you where you are, honouring your stories and fostering a collaborative therapeutic relationship built on trust and mutual respect.
Drawing from various modalities and my diverse training, I tailor my approach to suit your individual needs and goals. Whether navigating life transitions, managing anxiety or depression, or healing from past traumas, I am dedicated to providing effective strategies, tools, and insights to support your personal growth and emotional well-being.
I offer a non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and concerns freely. Through active listening, empathy, and validation, I will guide you to gain clarity, develop coping skills, and cultivate resilience in the face of life's challenges.
I am committed to ongoing learning and professional development, staying informed about the latest research and best practices in counselling to ensure that I provide the highest quality of care to you. My goal is not only to alleviate immediate distress but also to empower you to cultivate a meaningful and fulfilling life, grounded in authenticity and purpose.
It would be an honour to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing, growth, and self-discovery. Together, we can navigate the complexities of life with compassion, courage, and resilience.

Karen Sri Thomas
Registered Psychotherapist, MCP
As a counselor and psychotherapist, my goal is to help you through your struggles and challenges. Whether it's anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, family violence, emotional abuse, or relationship difficulties, I'm here to support you. Sometimes, traumatic memories or emotional obstacles can prevent you from feeling calm and centered, hindering your ability to live your best life.
It's possible that there's something unsettling lingering in the background or that you feel pressured, rushed, isolated, or disconnected. You may feel like you can't truly be yourself. If you're facing difficulties at work, school, or with a parent or close family member, I'm here to help.
Together, we will work on processing and overcoming your emotional or psychological struggles. Even small positive shifts in therapy can lead to relief and long-lasting change. I welcome adults of all ages, including those from culturally diverse backgrounds.

Kate Cooke Counselling & Psychotherapy - Initial contact by email only please.
Registered Psychotherapist, Credentialled Mental Health Nurse, Psychodramatist (AANZPA), MBT Therapist, PACFA Clinical Registrant.
PLEASE NOTE : I AM NOT A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE MEDICARE BENEFITS SCHEME, otherwise known as the Mental Health Care Plan.
I am a member of the LGBTIQA+ community and welcome working with people from the community for any issue, but particularly with suicidality and gender dysphoria. I also very much welcome working with non-LGBTIQA+ men and women for any of the difficulties listed on my Specialities page and other issues beyond that list.
I work with people’s understanding of their mental states and knowledge of their body, utilising somatic principles in conjunction with the specialist modalities listed above.
The areas I specialise in are as follows: attachment disorders, complex trauma histories, those diagnosed with personality disorders, specialising in Borderline Personality Disorder. More recently I have been working with a lot of clients who have ADHD and ASD. I offer ASD assessments and hope to offer ADHD assessment screeners soon. I have had some success with those diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder and BiPolar Affective Disorder.
I am open to working with adults from the age of 16 through to the end of life.

Colin Longworth - HPCCH Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Psychology & Counselling Services
Psychologist, MAPS, B Psych ECowan, GradDipCounselMurdoch,
I am a mature-aged Cisgender Gay Male Psychologist, Counsellor and Clinical Hypnotherapist, who came to psychology as a mature-aged student (studying mainly part time) after working in a variety of blue and white-collar jobs.
I find it interesting to investigate (therapeutically) how an individual (or couple) came to be where they are at this time of life. I refer to it as my "benevolent curiosity" which I use to seek to assist clients who come to see me (in person or online).
My belief is that for some clients they like the idea of working with a Gay man who is also a psychologist, and therefore (potentially) has first-hand knowledge and experience with some of the issues that an LGBTI person may experience. (i.e. the client is unlikely to need to "educate" me on aspects of LGBTI life.)
I also like the thought of being able to assist other LGBTI people feel more comfortable with where they are in life, by making use of my over half a century's life experience, decades of volunteer experience, all combined with my tertiary training.
