About

I am a Gestalt qualified therapist influenced by both the Existential and Person-Centred schools of thinking. I bring over fifteen years experience in the field of working therapeutically with clients both online via Zoom as well as in my practice in Bondi Junction and Naremburn. I work with male, female and transgender adults in a supportive and empathic way.

I provide a non-judgemental, safe and caring space to allow you to explore your concerns. I value our relationship and consider it to be crucial to the success of the therapy. Indeed there is much research that validates the power of the therapeutic alliance as being the dominant force behind creating change for the client.

I like to work creatively with you enabling spontaneity and self-discovery during the session. Indeed much of my work is about bringing attention to what is happening for us in the here and now of the session. This can create heightened awareness for you around patterns of thoughts and behaviour that may be keeping you stuck in destructive ways. New awareness can bring forth new perceptions and present the possibility for new options which can help you move forward in an authentic way.

To learn more about myself and the nature of my approach to both counselling and  training please listen to the attached Podcast conversation with Mr Brendon Rubie.
