Therapist Central Coast

MASS Counselling, BA Psychology, Couples Institute Diploma, EMDR

Hart Centre Certified

This Hart therapist is mature and experienced. She is passionate about couples counselling, in particular the frequent impact that sexual dysfunction and the impact of trauma have on the relationship. Her belief is that creativity, pleasure and fulfilment lie at the centre of human existence and if difficulties in sexual expression and functioning are present it can go to the core of a person’s relationship to self and others.

This Hart therapist has specialised training in sex therapy both in Australia and the USA. She also understands personally and theoretically the impact that trauma can have on both the individual and the couple dynamics in any relationship. She is currently undergoing further advanced trauma studies in Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR).

She creates a safe, non-judgemental environment that enables her clients to share openly their thoughts and concerns. This then enables her to utilise a number of different techniques and modalities which allow her clients to move to a more positive, open and even joyful space, taking with them the tools they have learned, allowing progression of their own journey. In this way, she has helped hundreds of individuals and couples.

She works with individuals and couples struggling with issues pertaining to gender, sexuality, self-acceptance, grief and loss, adoption, depression and anxiety, eating disorders, and interpersonal relationships. Together she explores with her clients their values, identifies their commitments and the aspects of their life that are important to them, and then works to sensitively peel back the numerous life stressors that might keep her client from not living the life that is desired.

She offers an integrated holistic approach, working with the emotional, the physical, the mental and the existential/spiritual. She believes that a treatment plan should be individually tailored to each client or couple. She likes to partner with clients, involving them regarding the focus of the work, the duration, the review of work and what success will look like. In this way, her clients are active participants in the therapeutic process, and therefore in their own healing.

HOW CAN YOU CHOOSE THE BEST THERAPIST TO HELP?

A relationship in trouble is a painful experience, and we understand that our clients want to process their feelings, resolve their issues, and get back on track as quickly as possible.

At The Hart Centre, we require all of our therapists to take part in our initial training as well as our annual in-house conferences, where we have relationship and marriage experts from all over the world share their wisdom.

There are two important elements to getting the best results from counselling. Firstly, the therapist must be experienced and knowledgeable in the field of relationships; and secondly, a good therapeutic relationship must be developed. Numerous studies show that the relationship between a therapist and client is one of the most important factors predicting successful therapy outcomes. This means that you and your partner feel supported and understood by the therapist.

To help you make this decision, we provide a detailed biography of each of our therapists on our website which details experience, qualifications, and therapy styles. This way you can feel confident that the therapist you are seeing is a good fit for you.
