Good psychotherapy or counseling is not a thing of methodologies or techniques – it embraces a real relationship between human beings.

In the outward focused mêlée of our lives we too often miss the golden opportunities for real contact with others. It is this contact that unlocks our spirit and enlivens us. In the realm of personal growth very little is instantaneous and perhaps nothing is ever completed – a lifetime doesn’t seem to be long enough.

For me psychotherapy is an adventure with buried treasure at every crossroads – and we are all adventurers at heart.

My name is Robert Hewitt and I run my counseling practice in Brighton, Melbourne. I trained as a Gestalt psychotherapist and have particular experience with Relationship difficulties, Separation loss and divorce, Problems in the workplace, Counseling adult survivors of childhood abuse, Group therapy, Anxiety and Depression, Life coaching.

For your own confidence you need a counselor who is well trained, experienced and registered to recognised professional bodies eg UKCP and GANZ. I also think it is important that any therapist or counselor has undergone deap personal therapy of their own to prepare them for the challenge of working with others.

Select your counselor with care - it may be one of the most important decisions you make.
