Hello, my name is Dr Helen Luna, Psychotherapist. It is a privilege to understand and support you to achieve change in your life.
I feel that the most important part of individual psychotherapy is that you feel comfortable talking about what brings you to treatment. I am interested in learning about how you feel. I respond to your specific concerns so that we develop a therapeutic partnership that will lead you to make wise decisions.
It is important you feel confident we can negotiate a path that will transform the feelings and beliefs that are holding you back.
The therapeutic model I use is Schema Therapy. This provides a gentle framework to explore and reframe schemas. We will talk about at Schema Therapy in our sessions and you can also read about Schema Therapy in Reinventing Your Life.
I have regular supervision with an accredited Schema Therapy Supervisor to ensure that my skills as a psychotherapist continue to deepen.
My area of expertise is sense of self and its relationship to mood state and self-destructive behaviours. I was awarded a Fellowship from the Institute of Psychiatry and a Scholarship from the Faculty of Medicine, University of Sydney to complete my PhD on sense of self. I am also an accredited Mindfulness Based Eating Awareness (MB-EAT) group facilitator.
I look forward to getting to know you, walking with you and supporting you through this period of change in your life.
Warmly,
Dr Helen Luna
