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.
Due to my background in nursing, mental health and the sex work industry, I have a good understanding of the various ways that sex and intimacy can impact your life when you are not happy with this aspect of your life. It can be very difficult and embarrassing to discuss openly which leads to a suppression of these feelings.
My aim is to assist you with understanding your sexual desires, being able to communicate your feelings more confidently so that you can achieve intimacy more easily to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods. Where ever you are in your sexual journey, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
A difficulty with sexual intimacy can feel complex and create anxiety and overwhelm. Being able to talk openly with a compassionate specialist can dissolve shame and unlock new ways of seeing issues. I invite clients to experiment and try to bring a playful approach to sex - which can often get stuck in a place of serious performance. Often to solution is getting out of the head and into the body. Book a free 15 minute phone consult via my website to discuss more.

Melbourne has a well-established therapy culture and one of Australia's highest rates of therapist availability per capita, with a strong emphasis on evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT, and schema therapy. The city's high cost of living and competitive professional environment drive demand for therapists addressing burnout, perfectionism, and relationship stress among its large young professional population. Melbourne's diverse migrant communities — including large South Asian, East Asian, and African populations — mean cultural competence and multilingual therapy are in consistent demand. The Royal Melbourne Hospital and Alfred Health provide institutional mental health resources alongside the city's extensive private and community-based therapy network.
