At Kundalini House in North Fitzroy, we offer Psychotherapy and Counselling to support mental health, emotional wellbeing, and personal growth.
Our practitioners provide a safe, supportive, and trauma-informed space where you can explore challenges, build self-awareness, and develop tools for meaningful and lasting change. We take an integrative approach, recognising the connection between mind, body, and nervous system.
Sessions may support stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma, life transitions, and a desire for deeper understanding and connection.
An Integrative Approach to Therapy
Our Psychotherapy and Counselling approach draws from a range of therapeutic modalities, allowing treatment to be tailored to the individual.
We offer:
- Counselling and Psychotherapy
- Somatic (body-based) therapy
- Psychoanalytic Therapy
- Relationship Counselling
- Trauma-Informed Therapy
- Mindfulness and nervous system-based approaches
Rather than focusing only on thoughts, this work may also explore how experiences are held in the body and nervous system, supporting deeper regulation and long-term change.
Your sessions may also be supported by complementary therapies such as Osteopathy, Acupuncture, and Massage, as well as movement practices including Yoga and Meditation at our North Fitzroy clinic and studio.
What is Somatic Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy is a form of talk-based therapy that supports emotional wellbeing, self-awareness, and lasting change. It provides a space to explore thoughts, feelings, and patterns in a supportive and structured way.
What is Holistic Counselling?
Somatic therapy is a body-based approach that works with the nervous system and physical sensations, helping to process stress and trauma held in the body.
What is Relationship Counselling?
Relationship counselling offers a supportive space for couples to improve communication, work through challenges, and strengthen connection. It can help navigate conflict and build more understanding and resilience within the relationship.
How can Psychotherapy & Counselling help?
Psychotherapy and Counselling can support a wide range of emotional, mental, and relational concerns.
At our North Fitzroy Clinic, therapy may help with:
- Anxiety and stress
- Depression and low mood
- Trauma and emotional overwhelm
- Relationship challenges
- Life transitions and identity
- Self-esteem and confidence
- Burnout and nervous system dysregulation
- Patterns of behaviour that feel difficult to change
This work supports both immediate relief and deeper, long-term change.
What can I expect from a session?
Your session at Kundalini House in North Fitzroy begins with a conversation to understand your current concerns, history, and goals.
Your practitioner will work at a pace that feels safe and appropriate for you, using a trauma-informed approach that prioritises choice, consent, and collaboration.
Sessions may include talk-based therapy, body awareness, and mindfulness practices, depending on your needs and preferences. The focus is on creating a supportive relationship where you feel heard, understood, and able to explore your experience more deeply.
How do I choose a Psychotherapist/Counsellor?
Choosing a therapist is a personal process, and feeling comfortable and supported is key. You might consider a practitioner’s experience, approach, and whether you feel a sense of connection with them.
If you’re unsure, you can book a free discovery call with our team to help guide you toward the practitioner who best suits your needs.
