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.
I have vast experience listening to many, many peoples parenting stories. Thus I feel I have a good understanding of the common parenting problems and issues, and how they can impact you and your children when experiencing them. I can support you to find connection, strength and empowerment within your parenting 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 Brew
Counsellor/Therapist, Dip(Community Services), Dip(Mental Health)
Parenting can be hard, we don't always have the answers, and for some, children's individual challenges, can push the parental limits.
I will help you understand what it is that's trigging your parental shutdown, and support you to find a more positive approach in guiding and supporting your child/ren to grow in to emotionally healthy adults.

Uri Bookman
Counsellor/Therapist, Trauma-Informed Relationship Counsellor, Therapeutic coach
Hi, I’m Uri Bookman — a trauma-informed relationship therapist, counsellor, and coach (PACFA 30041). Parenting can be both rewarding and challenging, often bringing stress, conflict, or different expectations between partners.
I work with parents to strengthen communication, build emotional resilience, and create a more supportive family environment. For separated parents, I also offer Mediation & Co-Parenting Support — a trauma-informed, collaborative pathway that helps reduce conflict and establish respectful, sustainable agreements.
Together, we’ll focus on tools that bring clarity, compassion, and calm into your parenting journey — whether you’re navigating everyday struggles or the complexity of co-parenting after separation.
If you’d like support in creating a stronger, more connected family life, I offer a free 15-minute chat to see if this feels like the right fit.

Will Salter - Connected Man Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA member, L2 IFS trained, Diploma of Counselling
Being a dad can bring pressures that few people talk about. Balancing work, family, and your own well-being can feel overwhelming, and it’s easy to lose sight of yourself in the process. I offer a space to sort through the stress, expectations, and emotions that come with fatherhood, without judgment. You don’t have to navigate these challenges on your own—I’m here to support you in finding clarity, balance, and a stronger sense of yourself as both a man and a parent

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.
