Dimitri Hawa
Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
Clients who have experienced domestic violence or abuse, encompassing past or current emotional, social, sexual, or spiritual abuse, will discover therapy as a nurturing and empowering environment, utilising evidence-based techniques (schema therapy methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic approaches, attachment approaches), fostering a healthy safe therapeutic alliance and tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs. Therapy can effectively process the experiences, openly express their emotions, confront maladaptive beliefs, and embark on a journey of healing and safety, breaking free from the cycle of abuse.
Call for a free consultation. Medicare rebated sessions (obtained from a GP called mental health care plan) and private health insurance rebates session available.
Dimitri's experience extends to conducting psychological assessments and offering counselling support to Victims of Crime through (VOCAT), clients associated with the Transport Accident Commission (TAC), Workcover clients, and those covered by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and has previously provided psychological support within prison settings.

Nest & The Relationhsip Retreat
Marriage and Family Therapist, Clinical PACFA accredited, Gottman Method Level 2
I have worked with many couples where they have either grown up in Domestic and Family Violence situations or they are currently living in that situation. Once full assessment is completed, if the DFV is found to be contraindicated to therapy outcomes I would refer on for individual therapy. In circumstances where it would be workable in therapy, I would work with the couple to explore healthy conflict management.
