Tawney Bevilacqua
Registered Psychotherapist
I believe that we are living in challenging times, full of uncertainty. The issues that are arising in each of us are part of the broader climate of our world, and can be incredibly difficult to move through without a witness and a skilful supporter. I have trained in order to be with others as they meet with difficulty. My love of therapy is about the openings it provides us in accessing a more meaningful, richer experience of life. It takes incredible courage to encounter the depths inside oneself and it is always a privilege to be alongside someone in this process.

Dr Romana Bowd
Psychologist, PhD, BSc (Hons), BSc (AppPsych)
My practice is not only a welcoming space physically, but I ensure that each person that seeks my service feels emotionally safe and supported through evidence-based practice and stepping through the objectives set by clients themselves. I have many years of lived experience as well as professional experience and accreditation and I also ensure that I give back to the community through volunteering with the Royal Lifesaving Society and Surf Lifesaving Queensland. I previously volunteered at Lifeline for 5 years (phone counselling). I encourage feedback and re-prioritising goals throughout the therapy process to ensure that client's needs are being met through this journey. I look forward to meeting new clients through this medium.

I specialise in supporting clients from the LGBTQ+ community as well as those navigating alternate relating styles such as ethical non-monogamy and open relating.

Some common themes that I help my clients with are anxiety, sexuality, relationship dynamics, grief and addiction issues.

Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Therapist, Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) – PACFA Reg. Clinical 26570
Holding a grounded stance of compassion, empathy, non-judgment and light-hearted curiosity, I provide a safe and reflective space for clients to explore and gently unpack their lives. While clients may initially seek support for concerns such as anger, anxiety, compulsive sexual behaviours, relationship difficulties, or other presenting issues, my experience has shown that the underlying dynamics are often more complex than they first appear.
My therapeutic ethos is centred on not viewing clients as problems to be fixed, but as individuals whose struggles deserve to be witnessed with respect, depth and thoughtful exploration. I work collaboratively, supporting clients to develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience and clarity about how they wish to live.
I am of South Asian heritage, raised in London, and have lived in Sydney for over 30 years. Having straddled Eastern and Western cultures, including the particular nuances of my Indian background, I bring a culturally informed and integrative perspective to my practice. My earlier corporate career and lived experience of family life in Australia, alongside my own encounters with anxiety, stress and periods of low mood, have deepened my understanding of the pressures many clients face.
My personal journey toward greater meaning, purpose and self-understanding informs my belief in psychotherapy as a transformative process. I am committed to supporting clients in cultivating insight, living more consciously, and moving toward lives that feel authentic and self-directed.
If this approach resonates with you, I welcome the opportunity to connect.
