Grief
Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Grief doesn't move in a straight line, and it doesn't come with a timeline. It can resurface in waves, long after others expect you to have "moved on." If you're grieving a loss and struggling to find your footing, let's work together to help you carry it in a way that feels more manageable.
The first step in working through grief is understanding that there is no right or wrong way to grieve, whatever you're feeling is valid. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll create room for your grief without rushing it, and gently explore how to hold your loss while still moving forward in your life. My approach centres presence, self-compassion, and working at your own pace.
You don't have to grieve alone. Let's take the first step toward healing, in whatever way that looks like for you.

John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
Grief can affect you in ways you may not expect, leaving you feeling lost, overwhelmed or unsure how to adjust to life after a significant loss. There is no single way you should be feeling or timeline you need to follow. Together, we can make space for what you're experiencing, help you make sense of difficult emotions and gradually find your way forward.

Grief
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.
Due to my background in nursing and mental health, I have supported many people with various forms of loss and grief experiences in their life, and how this impacts them on a daily basis. Grief and loss over time when not resolved, can cause an unrelenting sense of despair and emotional pain leaving you feeling lost and stuck in that pain. I can support you to find connection, strength and empowerment despite your loss, to restore balance, happiness and inner peace.
I can do this by using 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.

Michael Elwan
Registered Social Worker, PhD Candidate (Mental Health), MSW, GradCertMH, DipPsych, MBA
Loss takes many forms: death, suicide bereavement, the loss of a parent or sibling, caregiver grief, and the quieter losses of health, identity, and direction. I work with both recent and long-held grief, including losses that were never fully acknowledged. The work is unhurried. It does not move you through stages; it makes room for the loss to sit alongside the rest of your life without overwhelming it.

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.
