Substance Abuse
Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Reg. Certified Practising 32932
Addiction is a physiological process. It doesn't happen because you are 'weak', 'defective', or in some way inferior. In addressing addictions, I draw upon physiology and neurobiology to understand how it happens and how it can be overcome. Acknowledging the addiction and the role it is playing in your life is often the first step in addressing what lies underneath it: for example, depression, anxiety, unresolved trauma. I then use my integrative psychotherapy approach to collaborate with you in a unique treatment approach that fits your exact needs.

Substance Abuse
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.
My focus is in supporting harm minimisation strategies that can feel practical for your circumstances. I understand that abstinence is not always the goal for every individual and this is not a focus unless you desire this particular goal. I can also utilise various assessments to measure the severity of a specific problem, as well as determining your progress within therapy. I can provide a copy of these for your doctor or other treatment provider to assist you further where requested.
My aim is to then 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.
