I, Xanthe Katsouras, I was born in Greece, arriving in Australia with my parents when I was 3.
I have a BA (Major in Psych); PGDip (Psych) & a Masters in Counselling & Psychotherapy. I have also undertaken training in EMDr (Level 1 & 2), Trauma, Somatic Psychotherapy, studied acting for a year, improvisation and have enjoyed discovering my own voice, through singing lessons and other practices.
I am a Counsellor & Psychotherapist, Clinical Registrant with PACFA # 27117, as well as being a registered provider with Medibank, HCF, AHM, & AHM, & ARHG. I also provide sessions through EAP services.
My experience in the addictions field, allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of the imbalances of mind, emotions, that often keep us looping in harmful patterns. Which facilitate our desire to avoid pain, increasing our need for control, preventing us from experiencing true healing and freedom. The therapeutic space acts as a springboard, affords an opportunity to begin to notice, acknowledge, allow, what is going on inside of YOU, even when you are not in session. .
My therapeutic approach is tailored to YOU bringing firstly myself, and my understanding, wisdom through lived experience, of trauma, family and cultural systems in the formation of identity. My knowing of Self, is akin to Carl Jung's model - we are a weave of SOUL, mind, body, and heart -and when the different parts of us come into balance, there is greater coherence, reducing inner conflict, more trust in self, and the remembering of who we truly are.
We are most definitely more than we THINK!! In fact, often, it is what we think, our ideas of things, that interferes with our own becoming.
The therapeutic space, provides an opportunity to begin to discover, your patterns, conditioning, different parts of self. It takes time, and the work is just as much between sessions, as in the session.
FULL - fil - me - nt, is an inside job, for which there are no quick fixes, yet it is the journey whose riches are beyond imagining..

Here’s a recent video I made to give you a sense of me.
