Dimitri Hawa
Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
Therapy focuses on the provision of a nurturing and empathetic space for individuals to delve into the underlying sources and root causes of their anxieties. 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, clients are empowered to develop practical coping skills for anxiety management and fear modification. Whether the focus is on generalised anxiety, trauma-related concerns, specific phobias, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, social anxiety, or other anxiety-related challenges, the primary objective is to help clients reduce distress and enhance emotional well-being. The therapeutic approach is collaborative, aiming to cultivate resilience and instill a renewed sense of overall well-being in clients.

Kellie Dundon - Salt & Earth Psychology Elwood (Melbourne)
Psychologist, MProfPsych
Anxiety can show up in so many ways—overthinking, avoidance, irritability, or a constant sense of dread. I help clients get underneath their anxiety to understand what’s fuelling it, and then work collaboratively to build skills for calming the nervous system and responding in new ways. We may use CBT, ACT, or EMDR depending on your needs, but always within a space that feels safe, respectful, and grounded.

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.
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 to assist you further where requested.
I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying and often subconscious cause. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties from fear or anxiety 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.

Uri Bookman

Hi, I’m Uri Bookman — a counsellor, therapist, and coach (PACFA 30041). Anxiety, worry, and fear can feel overwhelming, even when life looks fine on the outside. Whether it’s constant overthinking, panic, or pressure that won’t ease, you don’t have to carry it alone.
My approach blends counselling and coaching, helping you regulate your nervous system, reframe unhelpful self-talk, and discover calmer ways of relating to yourself and others. We’ll explore both the roots of your anxiety and the tools you can use day-to-day for more freedom and ease.
If you’re seeking clarity and calm, let’s connect and take the next step together.

Rita El Alaoui
Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapy diploma, reiki master diploma.
Anxiety feels like living in a storm, your heart races, your mind spirals, and your body feels constantly on edge. You know the fear is irrational, but you can't seem to switch it off. You're tired of pretending to be okay.
Online hypnotherapy offers a gentle path back to calm. In a safe, virtual space, we bypass the overthinking conscious mind and speak directly to the part of you that needs safety. We will untangle the knots of fear and replace the alarm bells with a deep, natural sense of peace.
You deserve to breathe easy again.
