Rosette Rouhana Art Therapy
Art Therapist, Bachelor of Art Therapy
Hello and welcome! I am a registered Arts Therapist and counsellor based in Sydney. I provide art therapy and counselling to individuals diagnosed or living with social anxiety. Through my practice, I make an intentional commitment to support individuals in their health and wellbeing journey. My mission is to enrich and empower the lives of others through creativity and connection. My passion for expressive creative arts has inspired me to further explore how art can be used as a tool for healing, and the ways it can be used in mental health recovery as a psychotherapeutic modality.

Social anxiety doesn’t mean you’re “anti-social”. It often comes from past experiences of feeling unsafe, misunderstood, or judged. We help you understand your social nervous system, develop realistic and empowering tools, and move towards connection without pressure to perform.

Alicia Adam
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters of Psychotherapy and Counselling, Bachelors of Psychology
Our self esteem and past experiences impact how we perceive others perceiving us. Our perception of another often being the precipitating factor of social anxiety. Anxiety based on assumptions and narratives created through past experience however no longer reflecting the present. We will focus on naming unhelping stories and thoughts so we can de identify with them. This gives us the opportunity create new perceptions that witness us as desired, secure and detached from worries based on other peoples thoughts & opinions.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
I can also utilise various assessments to measure the severity of a specific problem, as well as determining your progress within therapy. I can provide a copy of these for your doctor to assist you further where requested.
Social anxiety can be debilitating in hampering healthy, confident interaction with others and can lead to isolation and loneliness. I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying and often subconscious cause. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties from social anxiety to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
