Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
My name is Shareen Birges & I am a social worker who specialises in online counselling. I have been practicing for over 15 years & as a result, have a broad range of experience. I have worked with adolescents & their families, adults & couples. I specialise in the care of people with cancer and chronic illness, mental health, dual diagnosis/comorbidity, trauma background (including sexual abuse/assault & childhood abuse and trauma) & people with offending behaviour & people living with BPD. Due to my extensive experience working with adolescents and young people, I have developed an ability to work closely with families & other professionals, whilst keeping the boundary of privacy & confidentiality. I believe I am approachable & create a good balance between challenging clients & allowing their therapy to flow at a pace that feel comfortable to them.

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.

Andrew Robertson
Counsellor/Therapist, Master of Counselling and Applied Psychotherapy, Advanced Clinical Skills in Gestalt Psychotherapy
My greatest satisfaction is working with clients to help them transcend the issues and experiences that hold them back from having the lives they want. Embarking on psychotherapy should be one of the most meaningful experiences a person can have. Accompanying another human being on that path is the most deeply rewarding aspect of my work.

Tawney Bevilacqua (Spiral Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist
My work is grounded in the belief that emotional difficulties make sense in the context of our relationships, histories, bodies, and the wider living world. Therapy is not simply about reducing symptoms—it is about understanding the patterns that have shaped you and creating the conditions for something different.
Sessions are thoughtful, collaborative, and gently exploratory. I'll share my observations, invite your reflections, and encourage honesty about how you're experiencing both the therapy and our relationship. Alongside words, we'll also pay attention to the body—its sensations, impulses, tensions, and rhythms—as another way of understanding your experience. When it feels appropriate, we may also draw on the natural world, either through working outdoors or allowing nature to offer perspective, grounding, and a deeper sense of belonging within the wider web of life.
Spiral Psychotherapy is for people who long to understand themselves more deeply rather than simply manage symptoms. My hope is that therapy offers not only insight, but a different experience of being with yourself, others, and the living world—one that creates greater freedom, connection, and aliveness.
