Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Therapist, Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) – PACFA Reg. Clinical 26570
Relationships are an important part of living a fulfilled and complete life. I work with couples on numerous presenting challenges, including: communication, parenting, differing sexual desire and the effects of porn & substance on the relationship. I am trained in PACT (Psychosocial Approach to Couples Therapy) couples therapy and I combine this with my humanistic stance to therapy. The therapy you will experience is a balance between a focus on the relationship and each person as an individual. I invite you to call me to discuss your needs for couples therapy.
If you are planning on getting married, I offer a bespoke approach for you to explore all aspects of your relationship before getting married. This includes, life goals & hopes, finance, parenting, careers, relationships with family and friends, and perspectives on sex & intimacy.

Whether you're struggling with communication, trust, or feeling disconnected, we’ll uncover the deeper patterns at play and create space for real understanding and change. This isn’t about blaming or fixing, it’s about learning, growing, and building a relationship that truly works for you. If you're ready to shift old dynamics and reconnect, let’s talk.

Adam Kreuzer
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Diploma of Counselling, Professional Certificate of Adolescent Counselling
Relationships can be challenging at times. As we get older, we often grow, evolve or change. This can create friction between a couple, often leading to unhealthy behaviour, conflict or aggression. I have worked with many couples over the years to understand the root cause of their problems, building a healthy and strong connection for the future. I hold the couple accountable for their behaviour, seeking to understand what bonded them to each other in the first place. Goals and action planning for building of emotional intimacy is key.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Relationship difficulties usually involve two people each bringing their own script and history into the same room. I work with individuals and couples to understand these patterns and build genuinely different ways of relating, rather than just better conflict management.

Will Salter - Connected Man Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA member, L2 IFS trained, Diploma of Counselling
My focus is on supporting men as they work through stress, anger, disconnection, and self-doubt. By encouraging honesty, vulnerability, and emotional clarity, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space to explore the challenges that show up in relationships, work, fatherhood, or identity. Counselling here isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about guiding you back into connection: with yourself, your core values, and the people who matter most, so you can move forward with greater clarity and purpose. I see counselling as a collaborative and creative process, shaped by the needs and direction of each person I work with. My role is to offer steady support while creating room for healing, growth, and meaningful change. Ultimately, my aim is to help you deepen your relationship with yourself, others, and the world around you.

Michael Elwan
Registered Social Worker, PhD Candidate (Mental Health), MSW, GradCertMH, DipPsych, MBA
I support couples with communication difficulties, disconnection, breaches of trust and the pressures affecting their relationship.
I use Gottman Method Couples Therapy, developed by clinical psychologists Dr John Gottman and Dr Julie Schwartz Gottman. It draws on more than 50 years of relationship research, and The Gottman Institute reports that the method has helped more than 100,000 couples.
We begin with a thorough assessment of your relationship, including questionnaires I provide at no extra cost. We then choose practical interventions to strengthen friendship, manage conflict and build shared meaning.
I have completed Level 1 and Level 2 Training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy.
Couples therapy starts with four assessment appointments: 90 minutes together, one 60-minute individual appointment with each partner, then 60 minutes together for feedback. Each partner completes relationship questionnaires separately and privately between the first joint appointment and their individual assessment appointment. Allow a couple of hours each. Relationship questionnaires included. No additional questionnaire fee.
First joint appointment: $345 for 90 minutes. Later appointments: $230 for 60 minutes.
The individual assessment appointments are part of couples work. Where individual work with one partner supports the couples work, I may offer it for a stated purpose and coordinate it with our joint sessions. Both partners need to know and agree, and I check this with each of you on your own. The same disclosure rule applies in both settings. Ongoing individual therapy, including trauma processing or EMDR, is considered case by case with my clinical supervisor.
