Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
Domestic Abuse is so damaging because it happens usually with someone we love and who we are deeply bonded to. Therefore it can be very difficult to get clarity on what is actually happening, what behaviour is okay and isn't, and what decisions need to be made. I work with you to understand the situations that you might be finding yourself in. I use resources specific to DV and helpful practical strategies so that you can establish physical safety and then, when the crisis period is over, do the emotional and reflective work to process your experiences.

Dimitri Hawa
Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
Clients who have experienced domestic violence or abuse, encompassing past or current emotional, social, sexual, or spiritual abuse, will discover therapy as a nurturing and empowering environment, utilising evidence-based techniques (schema therapy methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic approaches, attachment approaches), fostering a healthy safe therapeutic alliance and tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs. Therapy can effectively process the experiences, openly express their emotions, confront maladaptive beliefs, and embark on a journey of healing and safety, breaking free from the cycle of abuse.
Call for a free consultation. Medicare rebated sessions (obtained from a GP called mental health care plan) and private health insurance rebates session available.
Dimitri's experience extends to conducting psychological assessments and offering counselling support to Victims of Crime through (VOCAT), clients associated with the Transport Accident Commission (TAC), Workcover clients, and those covered by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and has previously provided psychological support within prison settings.
