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. Problematic gambling can snowball to a range of other life difficulties and complications creating overwhelm and secretive isolation which is devastating to your happiness and how you feel about yourself. I can 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 assist you with your problem gambling creating 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.

Adam Kreuzer
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Diploma of Counselling, Professional Certificate of Adolescent Counselling
Gambling problems and addiction seems to be on the rise in Australia. Often, one succumbs to an unhealthy relationship with gambling to cover up major issues, problems or challenges in their life. It's a way for someone to escape from their life. It can also be a trauma response. work with clients in a sensitive, caring and respectful way to uncover the root of the trauma and process these feelings effectively. I have achieved great results in this area.
