You know you’re capable of more but something keeps holding you back. I help women 35–55 break subconscious patterns, limiting beliefs, anxiety and habits that keep them stuck, so they can reconnect, regain confidence and create lasting change. Ready to discover what’s really keeping you stuck?  

My approach is compassionate, intuitive, and grounded in the deep knowing that healing is possible—because I’ve lived it.

I blend Internal Family Systems (IFS) with somatic practices to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, supported, and empowered to shift out of survival mode. I know there is so much more to life than just getting by—and if you're ready to experience that for yourself, I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.  

I am a PACFA certified counsellor and Gestalt psychotherapist based in Sydney, Australia. My specialty is working with women who are experiencing anxiety, stuckness or emotional dysregulation and who are ready to begin to understand themselves and their needs; and in turn cultivate greater calm, vitality and ease both in their body and in their lives. I blend Gestalt Therapy, Polyvagal Theory and parts work to provide a holistic, relational, integrated approach to healing, growth and change. Through my own experience navigating life as a devoted wife and mother; I understand the complexities and challenges that come with meeting the needs of others whilst also learning to identify, articulate and meet my own. I learned to do so with the support of a kind, compassionate, resonate therapist. It is now my privilege to pass on the flame and provide other women with a safe space to feel heard and be seen and I love nothing more than to guide women on a powerful and life-changing journey towards self-acceptance, self-love and self-empowerment.

I believe the strength of our therapeutic relationship is at the core of creating meaningful change. I offer a warm, empathic and deeply caring approach to therapy. Equally I have over a decade of experience and have specialised training in. a variety of modalities. This means we can. work. together to ensure that your therapy is tailored. specifically to meet your unique needs. and goals whatever they may be.  

My take on life is that it is pretty difficult. Not for "Sissies" my father told me. I subscribe to the idea that meaning and purpose can be found in helping others. Making the world a little better for others. To that end I studied medicine and have been a GP, neurosurgeon, emergency specialist, psychiatrist and psychotherapist. As a therapist I use tools not only from psychotherapy but also draw on psychoanalysis, philosophy, biology, social science, and the spiritual. I am keen to help others find their own unique purpose and get meaning out of their life. It would be an honour for me to help you.  

Iva Taylor, CHt: Hypnotherapist Specializing in Subconscious System Alignment Ending Inner Conflict and Creating Effortless Clarity Are you exhausted by constant inner conflict? Do you feel like your brilliant, strategic mind and your wise intuition are locked in an endless argument, leading to anxiety, indecision, and burnout? My practice is built on the philosophy that lasting transformation is systematic, not random. My work focuses on fixing the root cause of this conflict: subconscious incoherence. My Core Programs: A System Upgrade for Mind, Heart, and Youth I specialize in three proprietary, structured therapeutic programs designed to resolve specific areas of inner conflict and behavioral patterns: The Integrated Inner Child Program (IICP): Resolves emotional stagnation and self-sabotage by addressing the source of limiting beliefs and subconscious patterns. We heal the past so it can no longer compromise your present. The Teenager’s Project Program (TPP): An 8-module therapeutic program specifically engineered for adolescents navigating modern emotional crises, anxiety, and self-harming tendencies. By combining subconscious alignment with compassionate therapy and coaching, this blueprint helps teenagers resolve internal chaos, safely process overwhelming emotions, and rebuild a resilient sense of self-worth from the inside out. The Heart-Mind Integrated Coherence Program (HMICP): This six-session blueprint is for clients ready to move from healing into mastery. It teaches you to harness the heart's energy to train your mind and nervous system to work in perfect synchronicity. The result is Effortless Decision-Making, Unstoppable Focus, and profound Self-Worth. My Approach: Coherence, Not Compromise I do not offer generalized relaxation. I provide a precise, therapeutic system for mastering emotions and the mind. My clients are successful professionals, creators, and parents who are ready to stop managing their anxiety and start eliminating it at the root.

I've spent over thirty years helping people make sense of complexity. Today I work as an Integrative Arts Psychotherapist and Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner, helping people make the invisible visible. Whether someone comes because they're anxious, overwhelmed, caught in painful relationship patterns or simply feels stuck, I'm interested in helping them understand themselves more clearly by noticing the patterns they couldn't previously see. Before retraining as a psychotherapist, I spent many years in design and technology. That background continues to shape how I work. I'm naturally curious about patterns, systems and the relationships between different parts of a person's life. Sometimes we simply talk. Sometimes images, objects or simple creative materials help make sense of experiences that words alone can't fully describe. There is never any expectation to be artistic. I work in an active, collaborative way. I won't rush you towards solutions, but neither will I sit back and simply listen. Together we'll become curious about what's happening beneath the surface so that, once those patterns become visible, different choices become possible.  

Holding a grounded stance of compassion, empathy, non-judgment and light-hearted curiosity, I provide a safe and reflective space for clients to explore and gently unpack their lives. While clients may initially seek support for concerns such as anger, anxiety, compulsive sexual behaviours, relationship difficulties, or other presenting issues, my experience has shown that the underlying dynamics are often more complex than they first appear. My therapeutic ethos is centred on not viewing clients as problems to be fixed, but as individuals whose struggles deserve to be witnessed with respect, depth and thoughtful exploration. I work collaboratively, supporting clients to develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience and clarity about how they wish to live. I am of South Asian heritage, raised in London, and have lived in Sydney for over 30 years. Having straddled Eastern and Western cultures, including the particular nuances of my Indian background, I bring a culturally informed and integrative perspective to my practice. My earlier corporate career and lived experience of family life in Australia, alongside my own encounters with anxiety, stress and periods of low mood, have deepened my understanding of the pressures many clients face. My personal journey toward greater meaning, purpose and self-understanding informs my belief in psychotherapy as a transformative process. I am committed to supporting clients in cultivating insight, living more consciously, and moving toward lives that feel authentic and self-directed. If this approach resonates with you, I welcome the opportunity to connect.  

At my transpersonal online hypnotherapy practice, greatness is defined by a unique fusion of expertise, compassion, and a commitment to holistic well-being. I specialize in transpersonal hypnotherapy, a modality that transcends traditional therapeutic approaches by incorporating spirituality and higher consciousness. What truly distinguishes my practice is a profound recognition that each individual's journey is inherently unique. Tailoring each online hypnotherapy session with meticulous precision, I address the specific and nuanced needs of my clients, with particular emphasis on anxiety hypnotherapy. Moreover, my expertise extends to transformative modalities such as hypnotic gastric band therapy and smoking cessation, offering comprehensive support for those seeking lasting positive change. Through a compassionate and collaborative approach, I guide individuals in a profound exploration of their subconscious, unlocking latent potential for personal growth and healing. Clients engaging with my practice not only find a safe and confidential space but also experience transformative sessions where they courageously confront and overcome issues like anxiety, fears, emotional blockages, weight management, and smoking cessation. By reaching out to me, clients initiate a transformative journey toward profound healing and well-being. Discover the transformative power of transpersonal and anxiety hypnotherapy, hypnotic gastric band therapy, and smoking cessation, allowing me to be your dedicated guide on the path to enduring positive change and self-discovery.  

If you are looking for guidance with anxiety, fears, depression, or trauma and ptsd, it takes courage to ask for help. Admitting you can’t do everything on your own, is the first step toward achieving wellness in a fast-paced, demanding world. You are an expert on your situation. You understand it better than anyone because you are always in it, but when was the last time you stepped away to look at it from a new perspective? My approach is focused on helping you feel that you are whole, capable, enough, and doing your best - because you are. Maybe, you just need some new skills to cope with all that goes on in your life. What you have learned in life never covered this. Or, perhaps, you've been feeling stuck in the same cycle of symptoms and are ready to try new skills to gain relief. We will work together to implement practical skills, create new habits, and get you moving again. My approach is more active. I will be an active participant in your healing journey. Together, we will identify your most important goals and needs and work on a plan to get you there.

It takes courage to ask for help. I am aware of the enormous amount of pain people carry every day, everywhere and I feel compelled to reach out and help them tap into a more meaningful life, to teach them they have value, to help them gain an increased sense of control over their own life, to help them recognize their resilience and improve the quality of their relationships. We are all in this together.  

You may have landed here because something no longer fits—an old story, a relationship, a way of being. Perhaps you’re tired of coping alone, of hiding the parts of you that feel too much, too sensitive, too complicated. I work with individuals who long for depth, authenticity, and a different way of relating to themselves and the world. I also work with professionals and executives who are navigating high levels of responsibility, internal pressure, or relational complexity, and who are seeking a deeper, more grounded way of being. My practice is grounded in Jungian, somatic, and trauma-informed approaches. Together, we listen for the deeper patterns, the quiet truths, the body’s wisdom, and the symbols that want to emerge. This work isn’t about fixing what’s broken—it’s about making space for what’s true. For what’s been silenced or buried. It’s about becoming more whole. I am an Australia-based psychotherapist offering online sessions to clients both locally and internationally. I work with individuals seeking depth-oriented, trauma-informed psychotherapy in a reflective, non-crisis setting. As I am registered in Australia, I do not provide emergency or crisis services. Clients are encouraged to have local support available if needed. If you’re ready to explore at your own pace—with compassion, honesty, and curiosity—I’m here. This work is best suited to those who are ready for reflective, insight-oriented psychotherapy rather than short-term or crisis-based support.  

I’m an ADHD and executive function coach, mentor and psychologist (GMBPsS) working with neurodivergent adults, professionals and students who want to understand how their mind and nervous system actually work. My approach goes beyond surface-level productivity strategies. We work with the whole system - brain, body and identity - so you can develop clarity, emotional steadiness and sustainable ways of operating. Many people with ADHD know they are intelligent and capable, yet everyday life can feel harder than it should. Together we translate your natural thinking style into practical structure, stronger self-trust and consistent progress. My work integrates executive function coaching, nervous-system awareness and identity development so change happens from the inside out, not just through temporary motivation. Many of my clients are ambitious, fast-thinking individuals - founders, professionals, leaders and students - navigating high expectations while managing ADHD. Alongside my coaching practice, I consult with corporates, educational institutions and organisations globally on neurodiversity awareness, inclusion and how to effectively support neurodivergent talent.

Are you struggling with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, difficult relationship patterns, or experiences from the past that continue to affect you today? You may find yourself repeating the same patterns, feeling disconnected in your relationships, struggling with self-worth, or finding it difficult to manage emotions despite trying to move forward. I work with adults, couples and families experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, attachment concerns, self-esteem difficulties and long-standing emotional patterns. My approach is warm, collaborative and personalised. I integrate Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Schema Therapy and EMDR, along with other evidence-based approaches, depending on your individual needs. I aim to understand not only what you are experiencing now, but also the deeper emotional and relational patterns that may be contributing to your difficulties. For couples, I use an attachment-focused EFT lens to help partners understand their cycles of conflict, emotional disconnection and unmet needs, and work towards greater safety and connection. I offer online therapy to clients across India and, where permitted by applicable local requirements, to clients in the UAE and UK. If you’re considering therapy and would like to explore whether we might be a good fit, you’re welcome to get in touch.
