About Us

We are psychotherapists practicing in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs. Our qualifications and training are in Gestalt Psychotherapy and we are members of GANZ (Gestalt Australia and New Zealand). We both also previously trained in Fine Arts.

We are married and work together with couples, and separately with individuals.

Our style is informal, personal and conversational.

We are passionate about psychotherapy. We are inspired by working with people, and believe in the changes and growth that come about through the psychotherapeutic process. Underlying this is a deep commitment to engaging people in their unique and creative paths of development.

Psychotherapy for us is a practice in the widest and deepest sense of the word - a commitment to another person, or to a couple, to be with them in the present moment and to join in a co-creation that is energising and rewarding for them.

We agree with Rollo May when he says:

The purpose of psychotherapy is to set people free. Free, as far as possible, from symptoms, whether they be psychosomatic symptoms like ulcers or psychological symptoms like acute shyness. Free from compulsions, again as far as possible, to be workaholics, compulsions to repeat self-defeating habits they have learned in early childhood, or compulsions perpetually to choose partners who cause continual unhappiness and continual punishment. But most of all, I believe that the therapist’s function should be to help people become free to be aware of and to experience their possibilities. (Rollo May, "Freedom and Destiny".)
