INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
A SPACE JUST FOR YOU
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
Individual therapy offers a private, dedicated space where every part of you is welcome. It’s a place to slow down, breathe, and explore the deeper layers of your thoughts, feelings, and experiences — without judgment or expectation.
At The Life Medicine Collective, we provide a safe, compassionate, and trauma-informed space where the focus is entirely on you. This work goes beyond simply reducing symptoms. Collaboratively, we explore the root causes of your struggles — the unconscious patterns, attachment wounds, and core beliefs that shape how you experience yourself and the world.
Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, identity concerns, relationship challenges, or treatment-resistant conditions, individual therapy provides the depth, connection and continuity needed for profound healing and lasting change.
WHY INDIVIDUAL THERAPY MATTERS
While group work offers the power of community, 1:1 therapy is the foundation of many people’s healing journey. It allows for:
Deep relational safety – a consistent, supportive relationship with a therapist who truly understands and sees you.
Personalised focus – every session is tailored to your unique needs and goals.
Privacy and confidentiality – space to explore experiences and emotions you may not feel ready to share in a group.
Building trust and resilience – a steady anchor as you navigate complex life challenges.
Integration of other therapeutic work – supporting you to process group, holistic, or medicine-assisted experiences in a contained environment.
Individual therapy often becomes the core space where breakthroughs and revelations emerge or where the threads of other healing practices are woven together into a meaningful coherent, cohesive understanding.
OUR THERAPEUTIC APPROACH
Dan blends evidence-based therapies with depth-oriented and transpersonal frameworks, creating a therapeutic experience that is both clinically rigorous and profoundly transformative. He draws on modalities such as:
Schema Therapy
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Mindfulness and somatic-based approaches
Psychedelic integration and harm reduction frameworks
This integrative style allows sessions to move beyond symptom management, guiding you toward insight, embodiment, and authentic self-expression.
HEALING THE HIDDEN LAYERS
Dan’s research and clinical focus include exploring trapped and repressed emotions — particularly anger — and how these suppressed energies contribute to cycles of anxiety, depression, and chronic stress.
In a society that often judges anger, many people learn to silence this vital life force, leaving them disconnected from their voice and power. Through therapy, Dan helps clients safely connect with and express these hidden emotions, fostering clarity, strength, and a deeper sense of self.
This work supports you to:
Find your authentic voice.
Set healthy boundaries without guilt or fear.
Transform destructive patterns into empowered action.
Cultivate the confidence to live fully and freely.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Your therapy journey begins with an initial assessment session, where we get to know you and the unique circumstances of your life. It is an opportunity to establish therapeutic goals and create a plan that feels supportive and achievable.
Sessions are offered:
In-person at The Life Medicine Collective, surrounded by the peaceful Gold Coast Hinterland.
Online, through a secure and confidential platform, for clients across Australia.
Medicare and Health Fund rebates are available where applicable, for psychological sessions only.
BEGIN YOUR JOURNEY
Therapy is not just about surviving — it’s about becoming. Through the 1:1 process, you’ll uncover who you are beneath the layers of pain and expectation, gaining the tools to navigate life with clarity and authenticity.
If you are ready to take the first step, reach out today to book your initial session.
Together, we will create a space where healing is possible, and where your story can be rewritten with depth, meaning, and hope.
