Jaya Bhaskar - Ropana Allied Health
Counsellor/Therapist, Counsellor/Psychotherapist, 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.

The Psychology Hub
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologists, General Psychologists, Educational & Developmental Psychologists, Mental Health and Disability Social Workers, Counsellors, Art Therapists
Most people get in touch at the point where something has been going on long enough that they want a clear answer. We try to make that first step straightforward.
The Psychology Hub is a multidisciplinary practice at North Lakes in North Brisbane. Our team includes clinical psychologists, general psychologists, educational and developmental psychologists, mental health and disability social workers, counsellors and art therapists. That range matters, because it means we can usually match you to someone whose training fits what you are actually dealing with, rather than to whoever happens to be free.
We work with babies and infants through to older adults, in clinic and online across every Australian state and territory. Appointments run from 8am to 8pm by arrangement, which helps when work or school makes daytime sessions difficult.
Alongside therapy we provide diagnostic assessments for autism, ADHD, learning disorders, intellectual functioning and adaptive functioning. You do not need a GP referral to book an assessment. Every assessment starts with a 90-minute appointment, which is the first part of the assessment itself. By the end of it your practitioner knows what your assessment needs to involve and gives you a written quote for the rest, tailored to you rather than a standard package.

Mindnest Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Couns
Reaching out for counselling can feel like a big step, especially when you are overwhelmed, stuck or unsure where to begin.
I work with individuals and couples experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, ADHD, grief, workplace pressure, relationship difficulties, low self esteem, emotional overwhelm or major life changes. You do not need to arrive with a clear explanation of what is wrong. We can start with what has been feeling hardest lately.
My approach is warm, practical and straight talking. I will listen properly, ask honest questions and help you make sense of what has been happening. Together, we can look at the patterns, pressure and emotions underneath it and work out practical steps that feel realistic.
Before becoming a counsellor, I worked across law enforcement, the legal sector, crisis response, child protection and community services. These experiences shaped the way I work, with calmness, compassion and respect for what people carry.
Face to face counselling is available in Illawong, in Sydney’s Sutherland Shire, with online counselling available across Australia. I also offer a free 15 minute phone consultation if you would like to ask a few questions first.

Anna Dafna
Psychologist, MEd, BEd, QTS, GMBPsS, ADHD & Executive Function Coach Accred, Leadership, Somatic & Polyvagal Cert
I’m an ADHD and executive function coach, mentor and psychologist (GMBPsS) working with neurodivergent adults, professionals and students who want to understand how their mind and nervous system actually work.
My approach goes beyond surface-level productivity strategies. We work with the whole system - brain, body and identity - so you can develop clarity, emotional steadiness and sustainable ways of operating.
Many people with ADHD know they are intelligent and capable, yet everyday life can feel harder than it should. Together we translate your natural thinking style into practical structure, stronger self-trust and consistent progress.
My work integrates executive function coaching, nervous-system awareness and identity development so change happens from the inside out, not just through temporary motivation.
Many of my clients are ambitious, fast-thinking individuals - founders, professionals, leaders and students - navigating high expectations while managing ADHD.
Alongside my coaching practice, I consult with corporates, educational institutions and organisations globally on neurodiversity awareness, inclusion and how to effectively support neurodivergent talent.
