Therapy for people who want

real, lasting change

Freedom in Spirit Psychology is a private psychology clinic in the heart of the beautiful Gold Coast offering therapy for adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families, both face-to-face and via telehealth.

We work with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected — often despite having tried therapy before. Our focus is not quick fixes, but deep and lasting emotional change.

Who we’re best suited for

Our work is especially helpful if you:

  • feel emotionally exhausted or overwhelmed

  • keep repeating the same patterns in relationships or life

  • understand your problems but still feel stuck

  • want to feel more grounded, confident, and alive

  • are ready to look beneath the surface

Many of our clients appear to be coping well on the outside, while quietly struggling on the inside.

How we work

Our approach is based in psychodynamic psychotherapy, what we call therapy. In simple terms, this means we:

  • listen carefully and deeply

  • help you notice patterns you may not be aware of

  • explore emotions at a pace that feels safe

  • work with the whole person, not just your symptoms

We don’t try to fix or rush you. We work alongside you to help you understand yourself more clearly and move forward with greater ease.

The FISP Philosophy

We believe that lasting change does not come from trying to fix what is “wrong,” but from understanding what has been carried — often quietly and invisibly — for a long time.

I noticed after 6 years of psychology training, back in 1992, that something was missing. At that time, I was disconnected from myself and the work. Once I discovered the part of the mind that is usually hidden, the unconscious, I knew that I had discovered what I was put on this planet to do. Over 3 decades later, I feel passionate and inspired to help you along your journey, in the way I was helped.

The most important piece of the puzzle I discovered was that healing happens when people feel safe enough to bring their most vulnerable parts into the therapeutic relationship. That is where growth begins. We bring warmth, depth, and careful attention to each person we work with.

“I don’t believe people need fixing. I believe they need understanding, time, and a relationship where they feel safe enough to be real.”
