HIV/AIDS
Dr George Booty. The PsychoTRAUMA Clinic (Convergence College of Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist, Dr, DPsych, MA Couns, MA Psych, PG Dip Spvn
Hurting people need someone to help them heal. There is no magic wand and there is no magic counsellor for this. It is simply caring and at the same time to deal with trauma that may have been induced when the sentence and prognosis appeared to be pronounced as a sentence which could have been traumatising to the sufferer.

HIV/AIDS
Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
I specialise in supporting clients from the LGBTQ+ community as well as men who are having sex with men (gay, bisexual, same sex attracted). This sector of society is more at risk of contracting HIV/AIDS. I help clients living with HIV as well as those in relationship with someone who has HIV. Thankfully we live in a world now where HIV is no longer a death sentence however the weight of this epidemic from decades past still hangs heavy on the gay and bi male community. Remember, undetectable = untransmissible. To talk more about how we could work together book a free phone consult via my website.

Mathew Bergan
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist and Counsellor (Grad Dip)
I support clients living with HIV/AIDS, whether newly diagnosed or managing a long-term health, by providing a safe, affirming space to process emotions and the impact on daily life. Together, we explore coping strategies, self-care, and ways to navigate stigma, disclosure, and relationships, tailored to your unique needs and circumstances. My approach integrates emotional, relational, and embodied awareness, helping you build resilience and a sense of agency.

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 a good understanding of HIV and AIDS and how they impact the person and the potential impacts for those around them required to support them. This experience supports me to understand the common concerns and issues that can be experienced which can cause a range of negative emotions from within yourself to emerge along with other peoples.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties 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.

Darwin is Australia's most remote and northerly capital city, a frontier community in the tropical Top End of the Northern Territory with a distinctive character shaped by its military presence, geographic isolation, significant Indigenous population in the broader region, and a transient workforce that moves in and out of the city on short postings and contracts. The mental health landscape reflects the specific stresses of remote tropical living—extreme heat and humidity, cyclone anxiety, isolation from family and major urban centres, and alcohol-related harm—alongside the acute needs of Darwin's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community. NT Health provides public mental health services through the Top End Mental Health service, and a private therapy sector serves permanent residents and longer-term workers; telehealth is widely used for those in more remote communities across the Top End. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, substance use, relationship stress, and the adjustment challenges of a city where many residents are perpetually in transition.
