Often clients seek Sue’s services when they feel they “need to do something” about reclaiming their emotional wellbeing, whether because of feelings of overwhelm, pain, stress, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, pre and postpartum support, relationship or self-esteem issues.

She strives to provide the most current approach to care and support for clients as well as to continue to grow personally and professionally as a practitioner through continuing professional development and supervision in compliance with or exceeding the requirements of the professional bodies of which she is a member.

Somatic Psychotherapy

An integrated and holistic approach to personal growth and development that encourages you to use your whole body and your conscious awareness to explore issues.

Contemporary somatic psychotherapy integrates understandings of the complexities of human experience and consciousness into its focus on the psycho-organic processes of emotion, sensation, desire, and breath.

Basically, it recognises that the processes of the body and mind are not only related but also interconnected. Your individual experiences and reactions are inextricably linked.

In somatic psychotherapy, you can soothe anger and distress, celebrate joys and accomplishments, unravel shame, make space for grief, enhance resilience, and build trust in others.

By using somatic techniques for exploration, you can discover where spontaneity, creativity, and deliberateness flow and where they might be suppressed.

As you consult with Sue, you can explore issues of concern and how they manifest in your everyday life, relationships, and body. You can expect her utmost respect, empathy and non-judgmental support as you talk about your concerns, worries, fears, and distress.

You will learn how to identify old patterns of behaviour and new ways of being that you can develop, along with how to cultivate the relationships you desire.

A consultation usually lasts between 50 to 55 minutes and is scheduled at least once a week. In long-term therapy, psychotherapy is usually used.

Sue provides online and face-to-face counselling in Eltham, Montmorency, Greensborough, Research, Templestowe, Doncaster and surrounding areas.
