Northside Gestalt Therapy

I cannot recommend this place enough. I see Cameron Barker, who was recommended to me by a friend, and I’ve been able to turn my life around with his support and guidance. I’ve really connected with Internal Family Systems Therapy and some Somatic therapy, which has enabled me to feel more peaceful and grounded.
Thanks to Cameron for your dedication and openness. I feel very welcome in each of our sessions.

I was in such a spiral before my session with Laura - who managed not only to gently yank me out of it but also give me the tools / homework to continue to heal. I am so grateful to her. She genuinely cares and delves deep without being pushy. Cannot recommend her enough!

My appointments with Northside Gestalt Therapy have changed my life. Their approaches have been so effective and has allowed me to make important progress in just a few weeks that I thought would take years to achieve. They have also given me the tools for tackling anything that may come in the future. On top of the skills in what they do, the staff are incredibly kind and caring making it easy to open up to be able to make that change. I could not be more thankful for them and their services!

My time with Northside Gestalt has literally been life changing.

I have struggled with so many interwoven issues through my life, and tried many different modalities to process it all over the years (CBT, Hypnotherapy, EMDR etc).

Though I'm sure that all those previous endeavors helped, it was only when I started my therapy at Northside that I actually started to see - and more importantly - feel the changes.

I am so very grateful to Northside and their incredible therapists. Gestalt has changed my life infinitely for the better, and I now no longer recognise myself from the man that started.

I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I can highly recommend Northside Gestalt Therapy - Great therapist’s!
I been working with Cameron for few years, His approach is holistic and welcoming to people of all diversities. I have experienced great care and support through the few years of my therapy journey. I have learned some awesome tools that are handy with navigating my mental health and regulation of emotions. Super warm human easy to talk. It is hard to find a good therapist and this one is definitely one of the rare gems that you are looking for.

I have seen two of the therapists based at this practice over the last five years and I am so excited that they have now colaborated to form their own business. Laura and Cameron have both helped me to regulate myself to the point I feel confident in myself that I can handle anything! No words can ever explain for grateful I am for the safe space they've created for me over the years. I have referred over 40 happy clients to them also! A definite five stars!

I was so pleased that Northside had a range of counsellors I could basically choose from according to my preferences and needs. Thanks so much - I will be sending more clients your way!

These guys have a great team of therapists - they also offer a 15 min pre-consult call which is incredibly useful to prospective clients. Highly recommend.

I worked with Laura for three years while I lived in Melbourne. She helped me identify thoughts, feelings and emotions that I had never before recognised or understood. Through gaining new awareness I learnt how to regulate bodily sensations and stresses. Overall, working with Laura has lead to me living a more stable and meaningful life. Laura is not only a gifted and compassionate therapist, she is a loving and caring person that finds deep meaning in her work as a Gestalt Practitioner.

I've had Gestalt Therapy sessions with Laura Duggan and she is amazing at what she does! Her holistic, intuitive and compassionate guidance through some very delicate and personal challenges made me feel heard, safe and supported. Her breadth of knowledge and experience comes through with ease and built trust with me quickly. I always leave her sessions feeling lighter and more confident in myself to take on the world. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Laura you are a beautiful legend xx

I had a session with Laura during a particularly tumultuous time in my career and life in general. Laura held space with kindness and compassion, and I left feeling empowered to make the necessary changes to move forward. I have and will continue to refer friends, family and colleagues. Highly recommend.
