Body Sense Psychology
Psychologist, Master of Psychology, Bachelor of Arts (Honours Psychology), Certificate in Sexology
At Body Sense Psychology, I help you make sense of how your body holds your story. Life experiences, stress, trauma and health conditions show up physically as much as psychologically. By working together, I can help you understand these connections and create pathways towards
change, healing and resilience. As a fully registered psychologist I provide a safe, nurturing and non-judgemental environment for clients from all walks of life. I have a strong focus on ensuring that I'm the right therapeutic fit for you and work towards a deep understanding of you, your story, where you are now, and where you'd like to be. I apply the latest evidence-based psychological approaches that are appropriate for your needs and goals.

Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
I want my clients to get the most out of therapy, so that, as soon as possible, they no longer need therapy. Foremost in how I work is the establishment of as much safety as is reasonably possible and a strong collaborative alliance. I bring my full being to meet clients where they are at and walk with them to where they want to be. I work with you to tap into and develop your own innate capacities for self-awareness, emotional regulation, and healing. Whether it is trauma, grief and loss, or relational, emotional or life purpose issues, I help you get to the root cause of your experience and connect to it in a powerful, transformative way.
The parable of teaching a person to fish can apply here. Together we will catch some fish and address the immediate problems, but ultimately you will be better at fishing yourself, so you will carry the gifts of therapy with you long after we stop working together.
I chose the path of psychotherapy because I wanted to address the root cause of suffering and find a way to be of meaningful service. It is a deeply transformative and fulfilling path. There is something about being with another in therapy that leaves me never quite the same as when I entered the session. As such, my work brings me life, just as I endeavour the same for my clients. If this is resonating with you, I encourage you to contact me for a free consultation call.

Townsville is the largest city in tropical North Queensland — a military, agricultural, and mining hub built around Lavarack Barracks (home to the Army's 3rd Brigade), James Cook University, and a regional healthcare system serving a vast geographic area. The city's significant Australian Army presence creates therapy demand from military families navigating deployment stress and the emotional challenges of service life, while the broader civilian population navigates the economic cycles of mining and agriculture. Townsville University Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, while James Cook University's psychology programs supply clinical training to the local and regional community. Townsville's tropical climate and geographic isolation — it is the largest city between Brisbane and Darwin — mean therapists serve clients from a very wide catchment, and telehealth plays an important role in extending care across North Queensland.
