Trauma-Focused EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR) is a proven, structured method utilised to alleviate psychological distress related to difficult or traumatic life events. It is a highly effective tool for moving past stuck memories and emotional burdens.
Our specialised EMDR Psychologists frequently assist clients from Rose Park with issues stemming from past experiences, including:
-
Reducing the intensity of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Therapy symptoms
-
Managing chronic anxiety, phobias, and panic attacks
-
Addressing persistent sleeping difficulties
-
Treating trauma symptoms like flashbacks, emotional numbness or social withdrawal
EMDR enables the brain to naturally process distressing information, transforming overwhelming memories into manageable ones.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What should I expect in my first session?
Your first session focuses on establishing rapport and understanding your unique situation. Your therapist will ask questions about your background, current challenges, and, most importantly, your goals for therapy. It’s a space to feel heard, understood, and to collaboratively plan your treatment.
2. How often should I attend therapy sessions?
While fortnightly appointments are a common suggestion, the ideal frequency depends entirely on your personal factors and therapeutic goals. We recommend discussing this with your practitioner in your initial session to set a suitable rhythm.
3. Can I use my Private Health Insurance instead of Medicare?
Yes. You can opt to use your Private Health insurance, provided your plan covers psychological services. However, you cannot claim a Medicare rebate and a Private Health rebate for the same session.
4. How do I choose the right therapist for me?
Choosing a therapist one feels understood by and resonate with, is an individual choice. We encourage you to review our Practitioner profiles, noticing factors such as areas of specialisations, therapy approaches and age groups. If you need some help, contact our friendly Reception team. They can confidentially discuss your needs and suggest available practitioners who might be a good fit.
5. Does Kensington Psychology & Well-Being cater to neurodiversity?
Yes. We have practitioners, such as Maeve Steinert, Nur Aydin, Lara Kruger, and David Dunbar, who have a special interest in neurodiversity, including conducting ADHD and ASD assessments and providing affirming care that focusses on strengths and resilience.
