Michael Elwan
Registered Social Worker, PhD Candidate (Mental Health), MSW, GradCertMH, DipPsych, MBA
Hi, I’m Michael, known as Mick. I offer online EMDR therapy for adults and couples therapy using the Gottman Method, across Australia in English or Arabic. I am Perth-based.
You may be looking for help with a particular experience, or noticing that anxiety, grief, self-doubt or relationship difficulties keep returning. Perhaps you understand some of what is happening but still find it difficult to respond differently. We begin by exploring what troubles you, how it affects daily life and what you want from therapy.
I am an Accredited Social Worker and the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW) Social Worker of the Year 2025. My practice brings together professional training, attention to culture and relationships, and lived experience of caregiving, migration and suicide bereavement.
There is room to discuss family expectations, identity, faith and responsibilities alongside your emotional wellbeing. You do not need to leave those parts of your life outside the conversation.
I work collaboratively and welcome questions about the approach, the pace and whether our sessions are helping. We review what you need as the work develops.

Gottman Method
Dr Rachel Hannam
Psychologist, PhD Psychology
My philosophy as a therapist acknowledges that we are all interconnected, that we can grow bigger than our current problems, and that humans are capable of learning and developing at any age. I believe in helping people hold complexity and nuance. I encourage exploration and development through increasing self-awareness and building capacity to tolerate vulnerability in order that we may live courageously and fulfil a greater potential in life.

Dr Romana Bowd
Psychologist, PhD, BSc (Hons), BSc (AppPsych)
My practice is not only a welcoming space physically, but I ensure that each person that seeks my service feels emotionally safe and supported through evidence-based practice and stepping through the objectives set by clients themselves. I have many years of lived experience as well as professional experience and accreditation and I also ensure that I give back to the community through volunteering with the Royal Lifesaving Society and Surf Lifesaving Queensland. I previously volunteered at Lifeline for 5 years (phone counselling). I encourage feedback and re-prioritising goals throughout the therapy process to ensure that client's needs are being met through this journey. I look forward to meeting new clients through this medium.

Gottman Method
Gregory Poll
Registered Psychotherapist, MA
I am a qualified Gestalt and Somatic psychotherapist, as well as a clinical supervisor.
I am specialising in working with people who have experienced early childhood developmental trauma, anxiety, depression, and relational challenges. Using a blend of modalities, I tap into personal awareness, freedom, and self-direction.
My attention is focused on an intuitive, creative, and spontaneous process that centres on what is happening in the present moment between me and the client. Working somatically, I focus on the connection between the MIND and BODY to address mental and emotional health issues, especially trauma. "Inner Child" work is one of my key passions, and it plays a significant role in shaping my therapeutic approach. My focus on trauma is addressing the root causes rather than just the symptoms.
My Philosophy... "It is not essential what happened to us in the PAST; what matters most is how we make sense of it NOW."
