What should you expect from therapy? To be treated in a caring and respectful manner that is accepting and non-judgemental; to experience an atmosphere of safety and trust; to be listened to in a way that does not dismiss your pain, fear or loneliness and that instils optimism and hope for the future.
Andrea has had success helping people in all age groups and from a variety of backgrounds, both in community and hospital settings. She has previously held positions at the Albert Road Clinic and the Austin Hospital.
Andrea offer appointments in the daytime and evening hours at her practice location in South Melbourne (off of St Kilda Road). She would be more than willing to speak with you, and/or be contacted by email (amaben@alphalink.com.au), prior to making an appointment. This may help in the decision to pursue therapy and/or/determine whether she is the person with whom you may like to work. It has been well documented that one of the most important criteria for successful therapy is a good fit between the therapist and the client.
