Emily Dowling Psychology

Hello, I’m Emily Dowling. In my role as psychologist and counsellor, I offer expert support for things such as:

■Anxiety, including racing thoughts, excessive worry, pounding heart and feeling overwhelmed
■Depression, including hopelessness, apathy and an inability to feel happy
■Family concerns, including issues with your partner, parents, siblings or kids
■Work concerns, including dealing with difficult colleagues and dissatisfaction with your career
■Difficulties initiating change in your life including dating, finding a life partner and job seeking
■Or simply a general feeling that your life isn’t as good as it should be, and a desire to do something about that

My approach is effective, and sensitive yet honest. It will allow you to:
■Work out what you want your life to look like, and create a plan to achieve this
■Look at the individual things that are troubling you and work out which you can eliminate, and which you may have to learn to live with
■Develop techniques to cope with the ongoing difficult things in life, both now and in the future
■Keep on top of the practicalities of life, including ensuring you are coping at work and in your home life

When you work with me, we usually begin by having a look at the presenting issues in a logical but creative way. We will work so you can clarify your values and set your own goals. Then we’ll come up with plans to achieve them, and strategies to manage any difficulties that crop up along the way. I view therapy as a chance to explore not only the things you would like to change in your life, but also to celebrate all the things that you are currently doing well. And I guarantee we’ll find lots of things that you are already pretty good at.

I offer both individual and couples sessions in my rooms in Sydney’s CBD just near Martin Place.
