Ronnie Adamowicz
Therapist, M.A. Psych
I’m a somatic psychotherapist and counsellor who believes that lasting healing happens when the mind, body, and heart are aligned. I offer a safe, supportive environment where deep exploration is met with empathy, respect, and grounded presence. My work is informed by humanistic principles and a belief that each person carries innate wisdom within their nervous system waiting to be heard and understood.

Our team of warm, down-to-earth psychologists offers thoughtful, evidence-based care that’s neuroaffirming, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive. If you’re looking for real connection, practical support, and a space where you can just be human—you’re in the right place.

Emma Crook
Counsellor/Therapist, Diploma of Counselling
Emma brings a beautiful blend of professional expertise and genuine, heart-led warmth to her practice. Her passion for holistic wellness inspired her to step into the counselling space, driven by a deep desire to help others experience the same transformational growth she has seen firsthand.
Holding a Diploma of Counselling alongside qualifications in Lifestyle Coaching and Yoga Teaching, Emma seamlessly weaves these holistic skills together. She brings a wealth of hands-on experience to her work, dedicating herself to gently supporting both young people (ages 10-18+) and adults through their unique mental health journeys.
Often described by those around her as a "ray of sunshine," Emma has a natural gift for making people feel instantly at ease. When she isn't supporting clients, you’ll likely find her soaking up nature, saying yes to spontaneous adventures, and living and breathing all things wellness. She equally treasures the quiet moments - curling up on the couch with a good book, slowing down, and savouring the simple pleasures in life.

Rebekah Kittl
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA Level 1, ACC (ICF)
You keep saying you’re fine. You’re not entirely sure that’s true anymore.
I’m Rebekah, a registered counsellor with more than two decades in business and leadership behind me. I know the pressure of being the one everyone relies on, and I know how loud the loop in your head can get, not just from the other side of the room.
I’m warm, and we’ll agree early on how direct you’d like me to be with you. My practice is trauma-informed and neuro-affirming, so we’ll work at your pace and in the way that suits you. I’m comfortable with silence, so you’ll have time to say the things you haven’t been able to say anywhere else. We won’t only talk, either. Where it suits you, we’ll also work with how stress shows up in your body, using breathwork and tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques).
You don’t need a crisis to reach out. Send me a message to book a free 15-minute chat, online or in Melbourne.

Rita El Alaoui
Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapy diploma, reiki master diploma.
I help people change the automatic patterns running in the background of their minds. While many try to create change through willpower alone, real and lasting transformation happens when the subconscious patterns are gently reshaped through hypnotherapy.
I am here to help you overcome addictions, quit smoking, relieve chronic pain and trauma in order to guide you towards lasting healing transformation and renewed control over your life.

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 and career whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties 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.
I also provide dedicated Professional Clinical Supervision services for a diverse range of counselling therapists, health and non-health related professionals seeking to enhance their career skills, navigate complex client cases, and maintain professional well-being.

Delphine Marina Psychotherapy and Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, Diploma Soul Centred Psychotherapy; MA(R.es) Cultural Studies; GradDip IT & Politics; BA(Hons)Human
You may have landed here because something no longer fits—an old story, a relationship, a way of being. Perhaps you’re tired of coping alone, of hiding the parts of you that feel too much, too sensitive, too complicated. I work with individuals who long for depth, authenticity, and a different way of relating to themselves and the world.
I also work with professionals and executives who are navigating high levels of responsibility, internal pressure, or relational complexity, and who are seeking a deeper, more grounded way of being.
My practice is grounded in Jungian, somatic, and trauma-informed approaches. Together, we listen for the deeper patterns, the quiet truths, the body’s wisdom, and the symbols that want to emerge. This work isn’t about fixing what’s broken—it’s about making space for what’s true. For what’s been silenced or buried. It’s about becoming more whole.
I am an Australia-based psychotherapist offering online sessions to clients both locally and internationally. I work with individuals seeking depth-oriented, trauma-informed psychotherapy in a reflective, non-crisis setting.
As I am registered in Australia, I do not provide emergency or crisis services. Clients are encouraged to have local support available if needed.
If you’re ready to explore at your own pace—with compassion, honesty, and curiosity—I’m here. This work is best suited to those who are ready for reflective, insight-oriented psychotherapy rather than short-term or crisis-based support.
