Tawney Bevilacqua (Spiral Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist
My work is grounded in the belief that emotional difficulties make sense in the context of our relationships, histories, bodies, and the wider living world. Therapy is not simply about reducing symptoms—it is about understanding the patterns that have shaped you and creating the conditions for something different.
Sessions are thoughtful, collaborative, and gently exploratory. I'll share my observations, invite your reflections, and encourage honesty about how you're experiencing both the therapy and our relationship. Alongside words, we'll also pay attention to the body—its sensations, impulses, tensions, and rhythms—as another way of understanding your experience. When it feels appropriate, we may also draw on the natural world, either through working outdoors or allowing nature to offer perspective, grounding, and a deeper sense of belonging within the wider web of life.
Spiral Psychotherapy is for people who long to understand themselves more deeply rather than simply manage symptoms. My hope is that therapy offers not only insight, but a different experience of being with yourself, others, and the living world—one that creates greater freedom, connection, and aliveness.

Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
I'm passionate about supporting your personal development, hand-in-hand with nature, in service of the earth.
Disconnection is a real threat to a meaningful life. And I see more and more people seeking meaning and connection in an increasingly disconnected world.
I help people like you connect with themselves, with the people in their lives and with the world around them.
I’ve worked with people from all walks of life all over the globe. Using a somatic, nature-based approach, I know how to help you navigate disconnection and become an embodied, more connected human.
If you're someone who's feeling out of place in your world, or you're in a relationship that's struggling, I can help. We'll combine the best of therapy & coaching to bring about transformative, lasting change.

Adima Hawkes
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist, Spiritual Teacher, Gene Keys Guide, Trainer Tibetan Acupressure & Iridology
A warm welcome. I work with people from all backgrounds, across cultures and religions. The people I’ve met over the last three decades have influenced my way of working at least as much as my studies at university, in mystery schools and with alternative healing. I empower my clients to help themselves with practical wisdom for embodiment, so that transformation becomes a lasting, self-conducted process in daily life. Supporting inner stability and healthy navigation in this crazy world is as important to me as reflecting the truth of your spiritual being. I am known for good intuition, deep empathy and humour. My orientation in guiding you is through listening, listening to you and into the field of your life's situation. I will not fix you, simply because you do not need fixing. I will rather connect you with the possibilities of self-leadership and healing that are already in you. I discovered that healing follows facing and embracing what's in the depth of the inner shadow consciousness. Right from there, transformation happens from the darkness into the light, not by putting a pretend gloss over the dark spots. All the tools I use are in service of discovering, befriending and being exactly how you are. I invite you to embrace life as you are.
Contact me risk free, I offer up to 25 mins free intake (video) call.

Ballarat is Victoria's third-largest city, an inland regional centre with a proud gold rush heritage and a contemporary economy built on education, manufacturing, and regional services, and its mental health landscape reflects the particular challenges of a provincial city navigating the tension between its historical significance and the need to offer a modern, liveable community for young residents who might otherwise migrate to Melbourne. Federation University Australia is based in Ballarat and contributes to the local mental health workforce through its psychology programs, and Grampians Health provides public mental health services to the region. The surrounding agricultural communities create additional mental health demand for rural and farming populations, and Ballarat serves as a hub for mental health access across western Victoria. Common therapy concerns include regional and rural isolation, farming community stress, student mental health at Federation University, anxiety, depression, and the identity and belonging challenges of building a life in a regional city competing with the pull of major urban centres.
