Desné Doman, Clinical psychologist
I have been working with individuals just like yourself.
I know what it is like to not feel happy or not feel good about yourself.
As a therapist, I am here to help you get your inner peace back so that you can enjoy being who you are and build relationships that your heart yearns for.
Location:
I see individuals and couples at the Centre for Clinical Therapy
119 Willoughby Rd, Crows Nest, Sydney
Stairs (1 flight) accessible.
How I work
People who work with me say that I’m down-to-earth and non-judgemental, and they like being able to understand what we are doing and how it’s going to improve their life.
I integrate a number of evidence-based modalities:
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR),
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT),
- Mindfulness,
- Schema-focused Cognitive Therapy,
- Motivational Interviewing,
- Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy,
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and
- Brainspotting.
Since each client is unique, treatment methods are jointly chosen to fit your needs and strengths.
As a long term meditator, I use a mindfulness-informed approach to therapy.
