Addictions or Substance Abuse
Rob McClintock Counselling
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Dip Counselling ACA, Clinical Hypnotherapist ASCH,
As a survivor of addiction myself, I understand the shame, desperation, and seemingly endless cycle that keeps you trapped. My specialized approach to addiction recovery goes beyond willpower and surface-level strategies. Using Subconscious Dynamics™, I help you identify and transform the underlying emotional patterns, triggers, and beliefs that drive addictive behaviours. This holistic, medication-free method addresses the root causes - trauma, unresolved pain, and limiting beliefs - rather than just managing symptoms. My clients often experience breakthrough moments within weeks, breaking free from addictions to alcohol, drugs, and gambling that have controlled their lives for years. Recovery is possible, and I have the personal experience and professional tools to guide you there.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
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.
My focus is in supporting harm minimisation strategies that can feel practical for your circumstances. I understand that abstinence is not always the goal for every individual and this is not a focus unless you desire this particular goal. I can also utilise various assessments to measure the severity of a specific problem, as well as determining your progress within therapy. I can provide a copy of these for your doctor or other treatment provider to assist you further where requested.
My aim is to then 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.

The Gold Coast's reputation as a lifestyle destination can obscure real mental health challenges tied to precarious hospitality employment, seasonal work patterns, and the psychological pressure of a culture that prizes physical appearance and outdoor performance. The city draws many young people relocating from elsewhere in Australia, and therapists frequently work with the isolation and adjustment challenges that come with starting fresh in a new city without established networks. Gold Coast Hospital and Health Service provides public mental health resources, while a growing private therapy community serves residents across Burleigh Heads, Broadbeach, and Robina. The city's proximity to Brisbane means some residents also access specialist care in the larger metro.
