Gregory Poll
Registered Psychotherapist, MA
I am a qualified Gestalt and Somatic psychotherapist, as well as a clinical supervisor.
I am specialising in working with people who have experienced early childhood developmental trauma, anxiety, depression, and relational challenges. Using a blend of modalities, I tap into personal awareness, freedom, and self-direction.
My attention is focused on an intuitive, creative, and spontaneous process that centres on what is happening in the present moment between me and the client. Working somatically, I focus on the connection between the MIND and BODY to address mental and emotional health issues, especially trauma. "Inner Child" work is one of my key passions, and it plays a significant role in shaping my therapeutic approach. My focus on trauma is addressing the root causes rather than just the symptoms.
My Philosophy... "It is not essential what happened to us in the PAST; what matters most is how we make sense of it NOW."

Dr Rachel Hannam
Psychologist, PhD Psychology
My philosophy as a therapist acknowledges that we are all interconnected, that we can grow bigger than our current problems, and that humans are capable of learning and developing at any age. I believe in helping people hold complexity and nuance. I encourage exploration and development through increasing self-awareness and building capacity to tolerate vulnerability in order that we may live courageously and fulfil a greater potential in life.

Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Therapist, Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) – PACFA Reg. Clinical 26570
Holding a grounded stance of compassion, empathy, non-judgment and light-hearted curiosity, I provide a safe and reflective space for clients to explore and gently unpack their lives. While clients may initially seek support for concerns such as anger, anxiety, compulsive sexual behaviours, relationship difficulties, or other presenting issues, my experience has shown that the underlying dynamics are often more complex than they first appear.
My therapeutic ethos is centred on not viewing clients as problems to be fixed, but as individuals whose struggles deserve to be witnessed with respect, depth and thoughtful exploration. I work collaboratively, supporting clients to develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience and clarity about how they wish to live.
I am of South Asian heritage, raised in London, and have lived in Sydney for over 30 years. Having straddled Eastern and Western cultures, including the particular nuances of my Indian background, I bring a culturally informed and integrative perspective to my practice. My earlier corporate career and lived experience of family life in Australia, alongside my own encounters with anxiety, stress and periods of low mood, have deepened my understanding of the pressures many clients face.
My personal journey toward greater meaning, purpose and self-understanding informs my belief in psychotherapy as a transformative process. I am committed to supporting clients in cultivating insight, living more consciously, and moving toward lives that feel authentic and self-directed.
If this approach resonates with you, I welcome the opportunity to connect.

Perth is one of the most geographically isolated major cities in the world, and this remoteness contributes to distinct mental health challenges — including elevated rates of depression and difficulty accessing specialist care readily available elsewhere in Australia. The city's economy has historically been tied to mining, and therapists regularly work with the psychological effects of fly-in-fly-out work arrangements, including relationship strain, parental absence, and the boom-bust cycle's impact on employment stability and identity. Fiona Stanley Hospital and Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a substantial private practice community serving Subiaco, Fremantle, and the inner suburbs. Medicare Mental Health Treatment Plans provide partial subsidies for eligible residents, and telehealth plays an important role in extending care across Western Australia's enormous geography.
