Life Transitions
Julia Symons
Psychologist, Registered psychologist - BSc, Grad. Dip. App. Psych
Life transitions can be expected or unexpected, chosen or difficult, and sometimes involve significant change across several areas of life at once. Whether you are navigating a new chapter, a loss, a change in relationships, work or identity, these experiences can leave you feeling uncertain, overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself. I have significant experience providing support through periods of transition, offering a safe and compassionate space to help you make sense of your experiences and reconnect with what matters most as you find your way forward.

Life Transitions
Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Life transitions, such as a new job, a move, becoming a parent, an empty nest, or retirement can bring both excitement and disorientation, even when the change is positive. If you're feeling unmoored by a shift in your life, let's work together to help you find your footing.
The first step in navigating life transitions is understanding that feeling unsettled during change is normal, not a sign that something's wrong. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll process what this transition means for you and build the tools to move through it with more steadiness and less overwhelm. My approach centers self-compassion, adaptability, and grounding you in what stays constant even as things shift.
You don't have to navigate this alone. Let's take the first step toward feeling settled again.

Life Transitions
Will Salter - Connected Man Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA member, L2 IFS trained, Diploma of Counselling
My focus is on supporting men as they work through stress, anger, disconnection, and self-doubt. By encouraging honesty, vulnerability, and emotional clarity, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space to explore the challenges that show up in relationships, work, fatherhood, or identity. Counselling here isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about guiding you back into connection: with yourself, your core values, and the people who matter most, so you can move forward with greater clarity and purpose. I see counselling as a collaborative and creative process, shaped by the needs and direction of each person I work with. My role is to offer steady support while creating room for healing, growth, and meaningful change. Ultimately, my aim is to help you deepen your relationship with yourself, others, and the world around you.

Life Transitions
The Psychology Hub
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologists, General Psychologists, Educational & Developmental Psychologists, Mental Health and Disability Social Workers, Counsellors, Art Therapists
Starting school, changing schools, leaving home, becoming a parent, a new sibling arriving, relationship breakdown, retirement, a change in health. Transitions are ordinary and can still be genuinely hard. We work across the lifespan, from early childhood adjustment through to older adults, and with families where one person's transition is everyone's. Art therapy is available for people who would rather approach a change sideways than talk about it head-on. In clinic at North Lakes and online across Australia.

Life Transitions
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.
Along with a diverse personal and career background, I have a good understanding of various work and life stressors and change, and how it can impact the person, and the potential impacts for those around them. This makes it easier for me to be empathic and supportive in assisting you in finding solutions that you can feel inspired with to move forward on in your life.
My aim is to assist you with your life transitions 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.
