More Than Worry
Anxiety and depression are not personality flaws
Anxiety is often the nervous system's response to perceived threat. It's the body doing its job. But when that system stays switched on, or fires when it doesn't need to, it can feel exhausting, overwhelming, and hard to explain to others.
Depression can feel like a heavy fog: low energy, disconnection, numbness, or a persistent sense that things won't get better. For many people, anxiety and depression coexist, often rooted in the same underlying experiences.
Therapy helps you understand what's driving these responses and build the tools and insight to move through them, not just cope.

Our Approach
Therapy that looks at the whole picture
ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy)
Helps you develop psychological flexibility, learning to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings, and moving toward what matters most to you.
Somatic & Nervous System Work
Anxiety lives in the body. We use somatic approaches to work with the physiological aspects of anxiety: breath, sensations, movement, and nervous system regulation.
EMDR
When anxiety is rooted in past experiences or trauma, EMDR can help reprocess the memories that are keeping the nervous system on high alert.
Schema Therapy
Explores deeper patterns, including the core beliefs and emotional schemas formed in childhood that drive anxiety and low mood in the present.
Mindfulness-Based Approaches
Develops present-moment awareness and a different relationship with your thoughts, reducing the pull of anxious thinking and depressive rumination.
CBT
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is highly evidence-based for anxiety and depression, targeting unhelpful thought patterns and building practical coping strategies.

FAQ
Common questions
Is anxiety therapy different from regular counselling?
Therapy for anxiety goes beyond talk. We explore the underlying patterns, nervous system responses, and life experiences that drive anxious feelings. It's collaborative and focused on lasting change, not just symptom management.
What if my anxiety feels physical (heart racing, stomach issues, trouble breathing)?
These are very common. Anxiety has a strong physical component. We work with both the mind and the body, using somatic and nervous system-informed approaches alongside cognitive work.
I'm not sure if what I have is anxiety or depression. Does it matter?
Many people experience both, and they often overlap. We don't require a diagnosis to start. We start with what you're experiencing and work from there.
Can I access a Medicare rebate for anxiety therapy?
Yes, if your GP provides a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP), you may be eligible for Medicare rebates for sessions with our registered therapists. Ask your GP for a referral.
