Mathew Bergan
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist and Counsellor (Grad Dip)
I support clients struggling with sex or porn addiction by providing a non-judgmental space to explore patterns, triggers, and underlying emotions.
Together, we work on developing insight, self-awareness, and healthier coping strategies, while addressing shame, guilt, or relational impacts.
My approach integrates emotional and embodied awareness, helping you regain balance and agency over your behaviours and choices.

Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
Addiction to pornography and/or sex can get in the way of leading a full life. This behaviour can sometimes be a symptom of something missing or an unmet need. Through relational therapy I help to bring the unconscious into conscious awareness so my clients are empowered to understand their patterns and get to place where they are able to experiment with changes to those habits.

Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Reg. Certified Practising 32932
Like substances or devices, sex and porn are addictive. Pornography is an onslaught of visual stimuli to a body that hasn't evolved to deal with that much stimuli. Sex can be used as a validating distraction to undercurrents of trauma, self-hatred and negative beliefs.
In addressing addictions, I draw upon physiology and neurobiology to understand how it happens and how it can be overcome. Acknowledging the addiction and the role it is playing in your life is often the first step in addressing what lies underneath it: for example, depression, anxiety, unresolved trauma. I then use my integrative psychotherapy approach to collaborate with you in a unique treatment approach that fits your exact needs.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Compulsive sexual behaviour or porn use is often a coping strategy for something else, whether that’s stress, disconnection, or unresolved trauma. I work with clients discreetly and without judgement to understand the function it’s serving and build sustainable alternatives, alongside addressing any relational impact where relevant.
