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.
Being a bisexual woman myself along with listening to many, many other peoples stories within my working with clients who identify as LGBTI, I feel I have a good understanding of common LGBTI issues and how they can impact the person experiencing them. I can support you to find connection, strength and empowerment within your true self 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.

Kristen Bayliss
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist, BSc, MA
Although the problem for people who identify as LGBTI sits with the attitudes and behaviours of the society around them, a person may seek help to learn how to cope with impacts, and any other issues related to a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity. We can assist and support you through your journey and mental health.

Mathew Bergan
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist and Counsellor (Grad Dip)
I support LGBTQIA+ people by providing a safe, affirming, and non-judgmental space to explore identity, relationships, and experiences of minority stress or marginalisation. Together, we navigate challenges such as family estrangement, chosen family dynamics, coming out, or gender-affirming experiences at a pace that feels right for you. My approach honours lived experience and values authentic connection to yourself and your community.
