Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
A certain amount of stress is necessary to motivate us in various life tasks. High levels of stress however wreaks havoc on our emotional, mental and physical health. And when stress is maintained at high levels over long periods of time it can lead to nervous system overwhelm and burn-out. You don't want to put your body or your mind through that. I should know, I've been there. And I can say with conviction that nothing in life is worth it.
Our work together involves co-creating a space where you can relax in the moment. In addition to this we develop strategies that will support you to deal with stress in your day-to-day life.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Chronic stress can leave you running on empty, wired, exhausted, and never quite able to switch off. If stress has become your baseline instead of the exception, let's work together to help you find a more sustainable way of living.
The first step in working with stress is understanding that your body's stress response isn't a malfunction. It's doing exactly what it's designed to do, just too often and for too long. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore your specific stressors and build a toolkit: somatic, practical, and emotional that actually fits your life. My approach centres self-compassion, nervous system regulation, and sustainable balance.
You don't have to keep running on empty. Let's take the first step toward feeling more grounded and at ease.

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.
Stress and worries can affect our daily life with huge impact and take up so much of our time affecting our feeling of happiness and contentment with life. I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying and often subconscious cause. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties from stress and worry 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.
