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 and career whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
My aim is to 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.
I also provide dedicated Professional Clinical Supervision services for a diverse range of counselling therapists, health and non-health related professionals seeking to enhance their career skills, navigate complex client cases, and maintain professional well-being.

The Psychology Hub
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologists, General Psychologists, Educational & Developmental Psychologists, Mental Health and Disability Social Workers, Counsellors, Art Therapists
Most people get in touch at the point where something has been going on long enough that they want a clear answer. We try to make that first step straightforward.
The Psychology Hub is a multidisciplinary practice at North Lakes in North Brisbane. Our team includes clinical psychologists, general psychologists, educational and developmental psychologists, mental health and disability social workers, counsellors and art therapists. That range matters, because it means we can usually match you to someone whose training fits what you are actually dealing with, rather than to whoever happens to be free.
We work with babies and infants through to older adults, in clinic and online across every Australian state and territory. Appointments run from 8am to 8pm by arrangement, which helps when work or school makes daytime sessions difficult.
Alongside therapy we provide diagnostic assessments for autism, ADHD, learning disorders, intellectual functioning and adaptive functioning. You do not need a GP referral to book an assessment. Every assessment starts with a 90-minute appointment, which is the first part of the assessment itself. By the end of it your practitioner knows what your assessment needs to involve and gives you a written quote for the rest, tailored to you rather than a standard package.

Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Therapist, Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) – PACFA Reg. Clinical 26570
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.
