Overview

Samantha Symes is a Psychologist & trained Psychotherapist in private practice at Pinwheel Psychology in Potts Point and in Sydney's CBD. My clients are usually experiencing relationship,personal and work related issues which include anxiety, stress, motivation and personal issues in regards to different areas of their lives and are seeking advice and guidance to manage or change this. As a Psychologist I work with your thinking, strategies and provide techniques to support your preferred direction. As a Psychotherapist I work through your unconscious patterns of behaviour and thinking, to understand how this way of being arrived and are they needed any more? So not just techniques on how to cope(though they are provided) but why are they there?What can we do with this awareness to make real change? Need another perspective and/or action? Client Issues include but are not limited to: • Individuals in a relationship or marriage that they want to improve, to understand better or explore ending • Life transitions and preferred directions in regards to work, family, health, wealth, career, relationships, social interactions, personal goals and inner desires. • Understanding and managing the presenting symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress, perfectionism and self-esteem issues • Working with your creativity, ambitions or long held personal desires that require reflection, exploration, action and clear strategies. Including examining blocks, igniting your motivation to start and maintaining your focus • Ongoing support and guidance for all of your relationships and the cross-impact at work and home, along with understanding your past and family history in regards to your present thoughts and behaviours; both conscious and unconscious.
