Jeremy Plint

Psychotherapist

Hi, I'm Jeremy Plint and I am an Art Therapist and Visual Artist based in South East Queensland. I completed my Master in Art Therapy at La Trobe University in Melbourne in 2018, during which I had the pleasure and the challenge of working at Austin Secure Extended and Acute Care Units and the Thomas Embling Forensic Psychiatric Hospital. Having the privilege of hearing personal stories and witnessing growth and transformation through adversity was and always is inspiring and a privilege. My art therapy practice is focused on facilitating individuals to fulfill their natural capacity and live their best lives through a person-centered and strength-based approach. I am particularly interested in working with adult mental wellness and clients with experiences of alcohol and other drugs, who seek support to create meaningful lives.

Mackenzie Klinger

Psychotherapist

Phone0432 539 881(Mobile)
Are you looking for an integrated, person-centered approach to your mental wellbeing? I would love to help you. I’m Mackenzie and I’m an art therapist registered in Australia, New Zealand, and the Asia Pacific. I use a person-centered, holistic, and transpersonal approach to support my clients wherever they are in their life journey. This means that I believe that our sense of self extends beyond us and includes the rest of the universe. My aim is to provide a creative approach to exploring emotional, behavioural, and interpersonal challenges. In particular, I enjoy working within human developmental stages, attachment, trauma, change and transition, anxiety, and emotional regulation.  I believe that we can achieve change and improve self-awareness through the exploration of self-belief, internal curiosity, and being open to an ever-changing narrative. I strongly believe that a diagnosis does not define a person, it merely acts as a descriptor. Using diagnoses can be helpful in designing therapy and understanding symptoms but ultimately I am here to support and understand you in your entirety. My studies have included a Bachelor of Arts in Visual Studies and Psychology from Temple University, Pennsylvania, United States, close to where I grew up. My laid-back and easy-going personality drew me to Australia’s oceans and lifestyle, where I completed my master's of mental health and art therapy at the University of Queensland. Before I found interest in creative therapies, I drew on energetic support.  My practice has been founded on the principles of Usui Reiki which I have studied for ten years and of which I am a Master Teacher. The balancing effect of Reiki combined with art therapy has proven to be an effective self-care and general wellbeing tool for myself, which I love sharing with you, my clients. Art therapy and Reiki complement each other’s processes through the mind-body connection and not being solely reliant on verbalisation. Both are based on the present unfiltered experience, which is your natural response without cognitive doubt. You do not need to have the words immediately to describe what is going on for you in your mind or body, because this clarity comes through the act of creating. Both therapies challenge your perspective and thought processes in a gentle and individual approach.

Phone0432 539 881(Mobile)
My name is Veronica and as an art therapist, I help people to live a meaningful life, full of wonder, peace, and the joy of being self-expressed. I help people like you, to bring their own unique gifts to the world using art processes to explore, heal and transform mental health. I work with fellow creatives, dreamers, and legends who need help to access meaning in a creative way, when their own ability to find meaning is diminished due to stress, trauma, transitions, grief, anxiety, and other life challenges. I will support you by providing a safe place to access inspired creative experiences and explorations to draw on your own deep wealth of wisdom and knowing.
