STONE WELLBEING
About us
I am a certified TRTP™ Practitioner, Mindset Coach and a Clinical Hypnotherapist. I have spent over 20 years in a successful corporate career, mentoring and coaching people. During that time I was surrounded by people who were very stressed. Being stressed need not be unhealthy but how it impacts us can be highly unhealthy if it involves anxiety, neglect or avoidance. Many of us, myself included, start out in life with issues already, so adding stress and unhealthy coping is very challenging.
Anxiety, panic attacks, depression, self-sabotage and mood swings are symptoms of past or present unresolved psychological events or situations. For some, these conditions come from a life without feeling love and connection. Instead of providing symptom management, as other therapies do, my practice is about resolution.
My intention is to heal and get you well. I will meet you where you are, as you are. Always supportive and there to help you move to a place of healing and resolution. I will show you complete support and acceptance no matter what you have said or done or whatever has happened to you. This does not constitute permission or endorsement of behaviour but is a focus on the emotions that these experiences involve.
I use a combination of psychotherapy and hypnotherapy techniques so you can be empowered in your wellness. Using TRTP™ is especially effective at removing the emotional charge from unresolved events or situations so that the healing can begin. TRTP™ is a very structured, yet dynamic process and is the primary modality I practise.
Based in Melbourne, Australia. I work with clients nationally and internationally. All online, one-to-one and completely confidential.
I help individuals who are willing to do work on themselves, who are open to the possibility of change, ready to be vulnerable and create a better life.
My clients are generally, adults 30-70Yr, both men and women, who are at a turning point in their life…
WHAT WE PROVIDE
Our Services
Anxiety Depression Stress PTSD Treatment in Melbourne
You may have tried other forms of therapy and not had successful or lasting outcomes. This is because of a focus on symptoms not the underlying cause.
Treatment of symptoms results in temporary relief, while treatment of the cause results in complete cessation of symptoms. You get your life back.
The Richards Trauma Process (TRTP™) is cutting edge and unlike anything you have tried. It is an elegantly simple, yet comprehensive, step-by-step process which resolves even extreme trauma and trauma related symptoms.
TRTP™ is a standalone therapeutic process that has similarities to a number of evidence-based practices but incorporates a revolutionary approach. This unique process achieves results quickly, effectively and safely, generally in 3 double sessions.
What is trauma? This is what the experts say…
Trauma by definition is an experience that causes distress that cannot be resolved. This goes far beyond what we normally think of as trauma. “Anything that overwhelms the body’s ability to cope” Bessel van der Kolk. “Anything that is too much or comes to fast” Peter Levine.

Clinical Hypnotherapy
in Melbourne
Clinical Hypnotherapy is an effective technique to achieve a relaxed and focused state of consciousness which is similar to that experienced during meditation.
Each of us can have up to 60,000 thoughts per day. Of those, 80% are negative and 95% are repetitive thoughts. And the truth is that most of those thoughts are not accurate. “The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation, but the thoughts about it. Be aware of the thoughts you are thinking!” Echart Tolle Hypnotherapy has the ability to empower people to change their lives for the better; it is a proven and extremely effective solution for many problems. It can change unconscious negative beliefs, help you gain confidence and get rid of phobias.
I follow the principles of Cognitive-Behavioural Hypnotherapy
The cognitive-behavioural approach to hypnotherapy is the main evidence-based approach to hypnotherapy, and draws heavily upon psychological research on hypnosis and suggestion. It is a seamless integration of social, cognitive and behavioural psychology and psychotherapy with a modern approach to hypnosis.
It is mainly characterised by the rejection of the notion of “hypnotic trance” and an emphasis on ordinary psychological factors such as suggestion, expectation, and imagination, instead. It has a focus on symptom reduction as well as understanding and addressing, in a collaborative way, the underlying inter-related patterns of thinking, feeling and behaviour that maintain the symptoms – through which the client acquires self-awareness and learns new skills.
