Dimitri Hawa
Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
Stress is an everyday challenge, and the skill of effectively managing stress holds the potential to significantly enhance one's quality of life. Within a therapeutic context, clients are encouraged to explore the intricacies of their stressors, comprehensively understanding their sources and effects. By implementing evidence-based strategies, (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 can develop and refine effective coping mechanisms, ultimately boosting their resilience and regaining a profound sense of control over their lives. This process empowers individuals to not only mitigate stress but also to lead a more balanced and fulfilling life.
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.

Anne-Lynn Teoh
Registered Psychotherapist, MoPC, BPsych (Hons), B.Sc. (Psych)
Stress rarely stays in one place. Everyday tension with a partner or ongoing conflict with family can build until you're snapping, shutting down, or feeling like you and the people closest to you are on different sides. I work with stress that comes from, or spills into, your relationships, looking at the patterns underneath, such as perfectionism, over-functioning or finding it hard to ask for help. Drawing on IFS and somatic approaches, we work on settling your system and finding a steadier way to respond.

Thomas Reiner Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Diploma of Counselling (AIPC)
Stress can manifest in many different ways. I help my clients to explore these manifestations carefully before looking at ways to manage them. We will explore the distinction between stress associated with working life and life style, and stress that might have deeper origins such as the real and imagined expectations from others in our life.

Will Salter - Connected Man Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA member, L2 IFS trained, Diploma of Counselling
Stress often shows up when different parts of you are pulling in opposite directions—one part pushing to keep everything under control, another worrying about what might go wrong, and others feeling worn down by the pressure. These inner struggles can leave you exhausted and disconnected from yourself and those around you. We can get to know these parts with compassion, helping them soften so you can access more calm, clarity, and balance. You don’t have to manage all this on your own—I’m here to support you in finding steadier ground

Parents & Beyond / Vered Shomer-Harel
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist |Counsellor| Parenting Coach M.S.P.C | M.A. Counselling | DIP. Parent Coaching
Chronic stress can leave you feeling exhausted, irritable, disconnected, or stuck in “survival mode.” When responsibilities pile up, parenting, work, relationships, or major life changes - your mind and body can become overwhelmed.
I offer a calm, supportive space to help you understand your stress patterns, regulate your nervous system, and build practical, sustainable tools for emotional balance. Together, we work toward more clarity, resilience, and a sense of calm in your everyday life.

Uri Bookman
Counsellor/Therapist, PACFA Registered Clinical Counsellor (30041), Relationship & Couples Counsellor, Certified Coach
As a PACFA Registered Clinical Counsellor (30041), I work with people experiencing stress, overwhelm and persistent internal pressure. Rather than treating stress only as having too much to do, we explore patterns around responsibility, perfectionism, boundaries, self-worth and how you respond under pressure. The aim is not simply to cope better, but to develop greater awareness, choice and capacity to meet life without repeatedly losing yourself in it.

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.
Stress and worries can affect our daily life with huge impact and take up so much of our time affecting our feeling of happiness and contentment with life. 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 stress and worry 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.

Rebekah Kittl
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA Level 1, ACC (ICF)
You're not imagining it. Carrying a full plate at work and at home for months on end changes how your body runs, even when nothing looks wrong on paper. Counselling here starts with helping your nervous system settle, because clear decisions are hard to make when you're running on adrenaline. I work online with professionals who are managing more than their calendar shows. If stress has become your normal, we can look at that together.
