Psychotherapy & Hypnotherapy
My psychotherapy practice has a psychoanalytic base giving a deep understanding of thoughts, emotions, and past experiences which have influence feelings, relationships, and behaviour. The focus is both symptom relief and management of underlying emotional conflicts. Greater awareness of these conflicts can provide insight for choices going forward.
Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation, focused attention, and therapeutic suggestions for insight, strengthened sense of self, and lasting behavioural and emotional change. Hypnotherapy helps manage anxiety, stress, depression and various unwanted habits and behaviours with positive outcomes for a person’s sense of wellbeing.
I work with adolescents and adults for a range of difficulties including: anxiety in various forms, depression, weight issues, trauma, relationship problems., exam and presentation nerves, dental anxiety, and smoking cessation.
Typically sessions in my office or on line are for 50 minutes . Together, we explore the dynamics that have shaped your sense of self and contributed to your current difficulties — building greater self-awareness, resilience, and lasting resolution. Sessions are available in East Melbourne or online, and are always confidential.
