Psychologist, Masters in Clinical Psychology, Ph.D.
We have psychologists skilled in treating panic attacks, social anxiety, worry and health anxiety. We 'get' anxiety and we can help you. Depending on the results of our assessment, we will use cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) and/or acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-bawed approaches to treat most anxiety conditions. Therapy can be tough at times but we have developed some ways to make the process of treating anxiety easier to engage with.
Another way to think of anxiety is that is represents a form of emotional or psychological pain. Just like pain in the body is a sign things aren't right then the same is true of our minds. Think of anxiety as a way your mind has of letting you know things need attention.
Addressing anxiety and fears involves a comprehensive approach encompassing the mind and body, unravelling behaviours and coping strategies and looking deep within so that we’re not just managing the symptoms we’re discovering and addressing the root cause. I do this by utilising a ‘bottom-up’ somatic approach to therapy which means there is an integration of the cognitive (mind) with emotions and sensations within the body (somatic). This awareness (beyond the spiralling, often confusion of the mind) gives access to a world of information to help resolve trauma, anxiety, addiction, emotional overwhelm, dissociation, impulsivity, emotion regulation and an inability to relax and be present.
Hello and welcome! I am a registered Arts Therapist and counselor based in Sydney. I provide art therapy and counselling to those experiencing anxiety, panic disorders or fears. 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.
Anxiety is experienced by everyone at some level, but there are effective strategies to manage it and prevent it from controlling our lives. Unconscious fears are also common and once identified, they can be addressed.
Carolyn has over 25 years of experience helping people with anxiety and anxiety disorders, including social anxiety disorder, generalised anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder.
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
The pressure to 'be' something in the world can be overwhelming. Add to that the distress of what's happening in our ecosystem and, through that lens, having anxiety absolutely makes sense.
When it comes to the climate crisis, feelings such as anxiety, guilt, terror, grief, anger, despair and helplessness are not something to be fixed or cured. They are healthy, appropriate responses. They show that you care.
My experience is that anxiety and fear often come from needing, but not being able, to predict the future. And the fear of the fear itself can be debilitating. It doesn't have to be that way.
