Trauma Healing and Couples Therapy for Surf Coast Communities

Welcome!

Welcome — I’m Edward

I’m a psychotherapist supporting individuals and couples to create meaningful shifts in their lives— finding more freedom, clarity, and connection, especially when things feel stuck, overwhelming, or disconnected.

My approach is systemic, which means I see you within the context of your relationships, family dynamics, and lived experience. I draw from family therapies, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Schema Therapy, and nervous-system-informed work to help you reconnect with both your mind and body.

I’ve seen how integrating trauma work with systemic understanding can open the door to genuine healing and a deeper sense of wholeness—something I’ve experienced personally and feel honoured to support in others in this work.

Together, we’ll explore your story at a pace that feels right for you, creating space for every part of you to be seen, heard, and understood.

A peaceful space for your therapy and a great place to swim after.

Your in-person sessions will take place in a peaceful, private setting in Anglesea, Victoria.

I welcome clients from the Surf Coast, Torquay, Geelong, Ballarine, and beyond.

Once we’ve arranged a time to meet, I’ll share the exact address with you by email, as the space is on a residential property.

I also offer Telehealth sessions as a flexible, accessible option if you prefer to connect from the comfort of your own home.

  • Eddie helped me feel truly seen and understood in a way I didn’t know was possible. I came in feeling disconnected from everyone including myself, and through our work together, I’ve learned how to listen to myself and trust myself again. I feel more grounded, more open, and more able to show up in my family with my partner.

  • Edward held space for me in such a gentle, steady way. I felt safe enough to explore things I had been avoiding for years and I feel really proud of myself. Our work together has completely changed how I relate to myself and my relationship with my girls.

  • Eddie is a skilled and warm therapist. His deep understanding of families helped me find light in places I thought were only dark. I feel hopeful for the first time in a long time. I’m sleeping better, and my partner and I are communicating more openly than ever before.
