Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Therapist, Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) – PACFA Reg. Clinical 26570
Divorce can get messy and complex with practical issues of financial separation, child custody and ripple effects into family and friends. There may also be difficult emotions (anger, grief, sadness) in the ending of a relationship that started with hopes and dreams. I will support you through this process (and beyond) as you practically and emotionally process the choices and meanings you make through divorce. My invitation to you is to come and explore all the aspects of this significant life event how to move forward with it.

Outside The Square Coaching & Psychology - Victoria Rose Emery
Psychologist, MEDPsy; BA Psy/Business, Nutraceuticals Science; NLP, Mediation (JAG) , Nursing, IAC -Coaching
I support individuals and couple to find positive ways to reevaluate and reconnect with hope, purpose, and self-worth.. Divorce is an option... but many exist before this - trust has been broken - is this an opportunity to evaluate input by both? There was a reason you married - has this got lost amongst the rumble of life? We must remember - we seek what we want but we need to want what we get!

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.
Due to my background in working with many couples and individuals on relationship topics including divorce over my career, I have a good understanding of various relationship and divorce specific issues and how they impact the people involved, including how they can affect others in their life such as children, pets and other family/friends. I can provide impartial support to have difficult conversations as needed always encouraging honesty, empowerment and compassion.
My aim is to assist you with your changing relationship and divorce related life struggles to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Divorce brings grief, identity disruption, and often a reckoning with patterns that shaped the relationship in the first place. I support clients through the practical and emotional upheaval, helping them process what’s been lost while also using the transition as an opportunity to understand their own relational patterns more clearly, so the next chapter isn’t a repeat of the last.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Divorce can bring up grief, uncertainty, and a sense of identity upheaval, even when it's the right decision. If you're navigating the end of a marriage and everything that comes with it, let's work together to help you move through this chapter with more clarity and less overwhelm.
The first step in working through divorce is understanding that whatever you're feeling — relief, anger, sadness, fear, all at once — is valid and makes sense. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll process the loss, rebuild your sense of self, and navigate the practical and emotional weight of this transition together. My approach centers self-compassion, stability, and helping you move forward with intention.
You don't have to go through this alone. Let's take the first step toward rebuilding and a future that feels like your own.

Sydney's high cost of living, competitive job market, and population density create significant ongoing stress for residents, with therapists frequently addressing housing anxiety, burnout, and the pressures of maintaining relationships in a fast-paced city. The city has large Chinese, Korean, Indian, and Lebanese communities, and culturally competent and multilingual therapists are in consistent demand across its diverse suburban and inner-city neighbourhoods. Sydney's mental health landscape is supported by institutions including Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and the Black Dog Institute at UNSW, with a large private therapy community serving the CBD, Inner West, Northern Beaches, and Eastern Suburbs. Medicare rebates through Mental Health Treatment Plans make a significant number of sessions partially subsidised for eligible residents.
