Judith Minster
Psychologist, BA, Grad Dip Psych, MPsych, MAPS, Assoc ASH
Life throws us numerous curveballs due to current or past personal and workplace issues. Anxiety and fear manifests in a myriad of ways. For some can be situational, for others it can specific like a phobia or OCD while for others it can become more general. As such, I use a range of therapies to help clients navigate and work on their specific concerns.

Social anxiety is certainly an area of speciality and interest for me as a clinical psychologist. I aim to help the client understand their anxiety better and to develop effective ways of managing anxiety. Anxiety can really get in the way of living and experiencing life the way we want, and my work is focused on helping clients develop the ability to once again move in valued directions without anxiety being in control any more.

Counselling and Psychotherapy Yarraville
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, MEd, BEd, BA, Dip T, Dip Counselling, Dip Hypnotherapy
The anxiety and fear-like symptoms you experience are neurobiological symptoms. Your amygdala - the part of the brain that registers and records emotional responses, is sending you false brain messages. In this case, it's sending the message of 'threat' and 'danger'. Once, often out-of-the-blue, you felt your heart racing, your palms sweating and your tummy churning. You FELT...terrified. Maybe that first experience was on a freeway, in an elevator (lift), on a suburban train. The next time you had to face that 'event' (get back into that lift/elevator), your amygdala sent adrenaline surging through your body to GET OUTTA THERE. That's your brain getting things wrong. We can and will re-write that message.

Karen Sri Thomas
Registered Psychotherapist, MCP
It's completely normal to experience feelings of anxiety and fear. They serve as warning signs to be cautious in certain situations or with certain people. However, when these feelings start interfering with your emotions, relationships, decision-making, or daily life, they can really take a toll on your self-esteem and overall sense of self. Please don't hesitate to contact me - together, we'll work through your concerns and find your way to feeling better.

Ruth Schmidt Neven Phd
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist and Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist
A psychodynamic approach goes beyond the symptom and tries to understand how and why anxiety and fears have become dominant in a person's life. They may be an expression of deeper feelings of anger or disappointment that cannot be expressed and are best understood in relation to early childhood and personal history.
