Therapy

Anxiety

Feeling anxious from time to time is part of being human. But when anxiety begins to affect your relationships, work, study or everyday life, it can feel exhausting and difficult to manage on your own. You might find yourself caught in constant worry, avoiding things that matter to you, or feeling on edge without quite knowing why.

Therapy can help you understand your anxiety and feel more confident in managing it.

How therapy can help

Therapy can help you understand the factors contributing to your anxiety, rather than focusing only on managing symptoms. Together, we'll explore the patterns of thinking, behaviours and physical responses associated with your anxiety, and develop practical, personalised strategies to help you respond differently over time.

Common concerns

  • Constant or excessive worry that's difficult to switch off
  • Panic attacks or fear of having another panic attack
  • Social anxiety or fear of being judged
  • Health anxiety
  • Perfectionism and fear of making mistakes
  • Difficulty coping with uncertainty
  • Avoiding situations, places or responsibilities because of anxiety
  • Physical symptoms such as a racing heart, muscle tension or difficulty sleeping
  • Anxiety occurring alongside low mood, burnout, ADHD or autism

My approach

I believe therapy works best when you feel heard, understood and actively involved in the process. For anxiety, this often draws on:

CBT

understanding and gently shifting the thinking patterns and behaviours that keep anxiety going

ACT

developing a different relationship with anxious thoughts and feelings while moving towards what matters most to you

A collaborative, practical and neuroaffirming approach

tailored to your individual experiences, goals and strengths

Therapy is collaborative, paced to your needs, and focused on helping you build lasting skills that you can continue using outside of sessions.

What to expect

1

Before your first appointment

you're welcome to self-refer, or attend with a referral from your GP or another health professional.

2

Your first session

understanding your experience of anxiety, what's been tried before, and what you're hoping for from therapy.

3

Ongoing therapy

working together at a pace that feels manageable, using practical strategies tailored to your goals and experiences.

4

Reviewing your progress

checking in regularly on how things are going, rather than following a fixed program regardless of your response to it.

There is no set number of sessions. Some people find a small number of sessions helpful, while others benefit from longer-term support. We'll discuss your goals together and regularly review your progress throughout therapy.
Yes. If your GP has prepared a Mental Health Care Plan, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate for psychology sessions. The Medicare rebate is paid after each eligible session, but does not cover the full cost of your appointment; an out-of-pocket fee will still apply.
