In Person + Telehealth

If you're looking for someone to support you to find your voice, your strength and your own answers, I can help. Yes, life is challenging, sometimes scary and often confusing. But with proper support it's possible to find your own ground and your own place in it all. I don't see distress as a sign of dysfunction or incompetence.

Nathan Dick

Sometimes life's challenges (and holding hurts of our past) become too great to handle on our own. At times they may leak/flood into our daily life, impacting our ability to maintain meaningful relationships and a sense of joy or meaning. If this resonates, I'd love the opportunity to work with you, to help you find your voice, agency & purpose.

Tania Djipalo

Psychotherapist, Counsellor

Ocean Shores NSW

Learning how to relate to our emotional self enables us to connect with others and the world around us. Uncovering the patterns that prevent us from living the life we want and learning new ways of relating is the work we will do together. Finding the solid ground within ourselves is like having a wonderful book that will guide us through life.

I focus on the creative spirit as an agent for healing and transformation. One way to do this is to focus on dreams. I encourage my clients to take an imaginative approach to their problems.

Psychotherapist, Coach

No matter where we come from, what we do, or how educated we are, we all have things that hold us back, places where we feel stuck, people who push our buttons, and tired beliefs worthy of change. We all share the need to feel connected, loved and purposeful. Psychotherapy has transformed these ideas into an actionable life mission for me.
