Hi I’m Kerri (she/her) - welcome to Inclusive Counselling Care. I am originally from London and moved to Sydney for work just over eight years ago.
My main areas of interest include trauma, depression and anxiety, relationships, couples and family counselling and working with clients who are sexually and gender diverse as well as from different racial backgrounds. I work both short and long term with clients.

Su (Xufeng Su)
Psychologist, Provisional Psychologist
I am a provisional psychologist who is committed to delivering genuine person-centered and strength-based therapy and providing a space that is safe, welcoming and free from judgment or stigma. As a therapist, I aim to assist and support clients in exploring their unique values and identities. Through my lived experience, I have a deep understanding of the imbalance and distress we can feel when experiencing oppression or being unable to live our authentic lives. When supporting my clients – instead of assuming the expert position – I partner with them, exploring their potential and understanding who they want to be. During the therapy journey, my goal is to create a secure place where my clients can be heard.

Robby Fullerton
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist & Executive Coach
I believe that connections with the right people offer transformative space for building insight, feeling truly understood, and healing through life’s challenges. I am a warm, caring, empathic, and professional individual, devoted to improving my clients’ emotional well-being and reducing their pain and suffering. As your therapist, I will support you with compassion and integrity, drawing upon my extensive training in evidenced-based therapeutic interventions to produce lasting change. I’m passionate about helping others with a gentle and direct approach, creating an inviting, safe space for deep exploration and reflection. I welcome clients of diverse backgrounds and take an integrative and multicultural perspective in treatment.
In my work, I find that people have already given much consideration to their situation and have not gotten as far as they would like in solving their problems on their own. Often there are barriers and underlying issues that are difficult to see, which I can be helpful in identifying, processing, and overcoming. My aim is to form a collaborative partnership with you in which we can look at the situation you’re in through many lenses and strive to close the gap between the life you’re living now and the life you would like to be leading. Therapy consists of our together understanding of the operative issues of your situation and finding solutions that are practical and enduring. By partnering up, you gain a confidant trained in scientifically proven strategies to cope and someone to champion your progress in reaching your personal and professional goals. I am dedicated to building collaborative partnerships with clients based on respect for their autonomy, compassion for their challenges, and belief in their personal strengths.

Rhiannon Derrig - Sexuality And Relationships (Sentient)
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist, PACFA; Psychosexual Therapist
As a registered psychosexual therapist, I specialise in helping individuals with trauma and PTSD, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, and sexual difficulties, including intimacy and trust. I am also passionate about providing support for navigating gendered, sexual, racial, and neuro diversity, and cultural identities, who may experience discrimination or internalised stigma.
Centering unconditional positive regard, I work closely with the client to deeply explore how their past experiences, current situations, family background, and social elements of their lives have impacted their wellbeing. I then work together with the client to explore how they navigate life within their social and environmental surroundings, as well as how to establish an environment and support system that is conducive to growth and healthy self-esteem.
As a therapist, I deeply value sex positivity, social justice and removing the stigma and social constraints surrounding mental health work. I also aim to move away from binary and the pathologisation of queerness and neurodiversity, and provide dedicated support for people who feel they fall outside of the margins of the dominant societal group.
Peer support towards queerness and neurodiversity is an important therapeutic element that I provide - living actively in the queer community and with neurodiversity myself, I am able to genuinely connect with others who may identify with similar experiences.

Andrew Robertson

My greatest satisfaction is working with clients to help them transcend the issues and experiences that hold them back from having the lives they want. Embarking on psychotherapy should be one of the most meaningful experiences a person can have. Accompanying another human being on that path is the most deeply rewarding aspect of my work.
