Trauma & PTSD

Eating Disorders

At GBY (Guided By You) Therapy, we provide trauma-informed, evidence-based therapy for individuals experiencing the impacts of trauma, PTSD, and phobias.

We support clients with:

Complex trauma and PTSD
Developmental and intergenerational trauma
Identity-based trauma

Attachment-Focused EMDR
Somatic Body-Based Therapies
Parts Work (including inner child and protective system work)

Our team works from a neuro-affirming, strengths-based, and relational lens, supporting individuals to build emotional safety, process distressing experiences, and gently reconnect with themselves and others.

Whether you're working through trauma, panic, or phobias that are impacting daily life, we’re here to support meaningful, safe, and sustainable healing.

Couples Therapy

Eating Disorders

Couples Therapy

At GBY (Guided By You) Therapy, we support couples in navigating challenges, deepening connection, and strengthening their emotional bond.

Our approach is grounded in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), which focuses on identifying and reshaping negative interaction patterns, fostering emotional safety, and building secure, lasting attachment.

We also draw on Gottman Method tools to support practical communication skills and conflict resolution, and integrate EMDR techniques where trauma or past experiences are impacting the relationship dynamic.

Whether you’re experiencing ongoing conflict, disconnection, trust issues, or simply want to strengthen your relationship, couples therapy at GBY offers a safe, structured space for growth, healing, and reconnection.

Family Therapy

Clinical Supervision

Couples Therapy

At GBY (Guided By You) Therapy, we offer holistic and solutions-focused family therapy that supports healthier communication, stronger relationships, and more effective problem-solving across the whole family system.

Our sessions are structured using a Family Systems framework, helping families identify patterns, roles, and dynamics that may be contributing to conflict or disconnection. We work collaboratively with all family members to promote understanding, repair relationships, and build practical tools for lasting change.

Our approach is neuro-affirming, trauma-informed, and inclusive of diverse family structures and needs. Whether you're navigating parenting challenges, sibling conflict, neurodivergent family experiences, or significant life transitions, we provide a safe and respectful space to move forward together.

Family therapy is available online or in-person, depending on what best suits your family.

Maudsley family therapy also known as family-based treatment (FBT). FBT is a type of family therapy, where the patient and the family visit the therapist together.

DO I NEED A REFERRAL TO ACCESS THERAPY?

No referral is required to access any of the services offered at GBY Therapy.

You can attend privately, and some Health Funds offer a rebate. Please check with your Health Fund Provider if you are eligible to receive rebates for therapy services.

Simply click to make an appointment or send us an email.

CAN I ACCESS MEDICARE REBATES?

Some people may choose to get a Mental Health Care Plan that will entitle them to Medicare Rebates on psychology individual and some group therapy services.

If you obtain a Mental Health Treatment Plan (formerly known as a Mental Health Care Plan) from your GP or Psychiatrist, you are entitled to up to 10 sessions per calendar year with a Medicare rebate. The rebate is at least $87.20 for a 50 - 60 minute appointment or more if you have reached your safety net. Your doctor may initially refer you for a course of 6 sessions, with the potential for further sessions upon review.

It is not a requirement that you obtain a Mental Health Treatment Plan in order to attend GBY (Guided By You) Therapy. You can attend privately, and some Health Funds offer a rebate. Please check with your Health Fund Provider if you are eligible to receive rebates for psychology services. Please note that you cannot make a claim through Medicare and your Health Fund simultaneously.

If you are experiencing financial hardship, please discuss this with your therapist.

Any reduced rate must be discussed and agreed upon prior to your booked appointment.

DO YOU HAVE A CANCELLATION POLICY?

Yes, providing at least 48 business hours notice to cancel an appointment helps us to keep your session costs down, maximises our availability to clients and minimises lost clinical time. Appointments missed or rescheduled without 48 hours notice will incur the full fee which you must pay prior to your next scheduled appointment. It is important to note that Third Party funders do not pay late cancellation or missed appointment fees. These are your responsibility even if your treatment is normally funded by a Third Party.

If you provide us with a mobile number or email address a reminder message will be sent the day before your appointment. This is a courtesy reminder only. If for any reason you did not receive a reminder message and missed your appointment, you will still need to pay the late missed appointment fee. If ever in doubt, please feel free to telephone to confirm an appointment.
