Mindnest Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Couns
Reaching out for counselling can feel like a big step, especially when you are overwhelmed, stuck or unsure where to begin.
I work with adults and couples experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, ADHD, grief, workplace pressure, relationship difficulties, low self esteem, emotional overwhelm or major life changes. You do not need to arrive with a clear explanation of what is wrong. We can start with what has been feeling hardest lately.
My approach is warm, practical and straight talking. I will listen properly, ask honest questions and help you make sense of what has been happening. Together, we can look at the patterns, pressure and emotions underneath it and work out practical steps that feel realistic.
Before becoming a counsellor, I worked across law enforcement, the legal sector, crisis response, child protection and community services. These experiences shaped the way I work, with calmness, compassion and respect for what people carry.
Face to face counselling is available in Illawong, in Sydney’s Sutherland Shire, with online counselling available across Australia. I also offer a free 15 minute phone consultation if you would like to ask a few questions first.

Body Sense Psychology
Psychologist, Master of Psychology, Bachelor of Arts (Honours Psychology), Certificate in Sexology
At Body Sense Psychology, I help you make sense of how your body holds your story. Life experiences, stress, trauma and health conditions show up physically as much as psychologically. By working together, I can help you understand these connections and create pathways towards
change, healing and resilience. As a fully registered psychologist I provide a safe, nurturing and non-judgemental environment for clients from all walks of life. I have a strong focus on ensuring that I'm the right therapeutic fit for you and work towards a deep understanding of you, your story, where you are now, and where you'd like to be. I apply the latest evidence-based psychological approaches that are appropriate for your needs and goals.

Dr Romana Bowd
Psychologist, PhD, BSc (Hons), BSc (AppPsych)
My practice is not only a welcoming space physically, but I ensure that each person that seeks my service feels emotionally safe and supported through evidence-based practice and stepping through the objectives set by clients themselves. I have many years of lived experience as well as professional experience and accreditation and I also ensure that I give back to the community through volunteering with the Royal Lifesaving Society and Surf Lifesaving Queensland. I previously volunteered at Lifeline for 5 years (phone counselling). I encourage feedback and re-prioritising goals throughout the therapy process to ensure that client's needs are being met through this journey. I look forward to meeting new clients through this medium.

Oksana Pueschel
Counsellor/Therapist, Grad Dip Family Counselling, Cert NeurOptimal Neurofeedback
I use a variety of evidence-based tools and techniques to help you reconnect with your existing strengths and cultivate additional resources that support progress toward the changes you wish to make. Depending on specific needs, I draw from a number of therapeutic modalities, all incorporating a respectful, strengths-based, person-centred and recovery-oriented approach. My practice is grounded in developmental, trauma-informed and solution-focused therapy within a family systems theoretical model. I frequently call on creative interventions, mindfulness and somatic resources to align your mind / body / spirit connection and consider cultural respect essential to my therapeutic approach.

Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Reg. Certified Practising 32932
I want my clients to get the most out of therapy, so that, as soon as possible, they no longer need therapy. Foremost in how I work is the establishment of as much safety as is reasonably possible and a strong collaborative alliance. I bring my full being to meet clients where they are at and walk with them to where they want to be. I work with you to tap into and develop your own innate capacities for self-awareness, emotional regulation, and healing. Whether it is trauma, grief and loss, or relational, emotional or life purpose issues, I help you get to the root cause of your experience and connect to it in a powerful, transformative way.
The parable of teaching a person to fish can apply here. Together we will catch some fish and address the immediate problems, but ultimately you will be better at fishing yourself, so you will carry the gifts of therapy with you long after we stop working together.
I chose the path of psychotherapy because I wanted to address the root cause of suffering and find a way to be of meaningful service. It is a deeply transformative and fulfilling path. There is something about being with another in therapy that leaves me never quite the same as when I entered the session. As such, my work brings me life, just as I endeavour the same for my clients. If this is resonating with you, I encourage you to contact me for a free consultation call.
