I feel deeply honoured when someone shares their distress. I am an attentive, respectful listener and, having experienced chronic pain and trauma myself, will respond with compassion for your painful experiences. I will discuss the therapeutic options with you and, together, we will make a plan for your recovery. I will check regularly with you to make sure I am addressing your concerns and that you are happy with your progress.
I am available 8am - 7pm, Monday to Friday and Saturdays by agreement.
ACT, Emotional Freedom Techniques, Mindfulness, Somatic Experiencing®
My primary background is in somatic therapies, which work to heal damage done to the nervous system caused by traumatic experiences or prolonged, severe stress.
I adhere to the codes of ethics of the Australian Psychological Society and Australian Counselling Association. I undertake regular supervision and consultations with qualified, senior practitioners in the fields of Somatic Experiencing, Brainspotting, Emotional Freedom Techniques and clinical psychology.
I work with trauma and stress-related conditions, particularly with chronic pain conditions such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndromes and musculo-skeletal pain conditions.
Contact me by telephone (0431 170 589) or email (michael@paintraumarelief.com) to make an appointment.
2 hour free parking is available at both locations within a 5 minute walk. The Bondi Junction room is a 10 minute walk from rail and bus stations.
Fees are $170 for a 90min initial assessment and $130 for a 60min treatment session. However, if a client is gaining benefit, I will not allow affordability to come between a client and treatment.
Credit card or EFT.
