Kristie Dullat
Jingeri. Hello and Welcome!
I am honoured to live and work on the ancestral lands of the Kombumerri and Minjungbal Peoples of the Yugambeh language region. My deep respect for the Traditional Owners of this land, their ancient wisdom, and healing practices is foundational to my approach. I acknowledge the elders—past, present, and emerging—who continue to share the profound knowledge of 'Country' and its cultural healing traditions, representing the world's oldest continuous culture.
As a psychotherapist, I am deeply humbled to offer you a sanctuary—a safe and inclusive space where your story can unfold. When we meet, you'll find a curious, empathetic, and genuinely human presence ready to explore your unique journey. Together, we'll embark on a collaborative adventure, delving into your narrative and working towards a place of comfort and deeper understanding. I firmly believe in the innate potential for healing and growth within each of us, and I'm committed to being your supportive companion on this transformative path.
My practice is a tapestry woven from various therapeutic frameworks, including humanistic, person-centred, psychodynamic, narrative, attachment theory, trauma-informed, neuroscience, polyvagal, somatic, and deep listening approaches. This integrative methodology is designed to nurture your ability to co-regulate, feel safe, rest, pause, express yourself freely, learn, adapt, and ultimately flourish.
Outside of the therapy room, you'll likely find me embracing the natural world with my family. Nature is my sanctuary, offering deep rejuvenation and inspiration. Whether I'm discovering new coastal gems or basking in the presence of majestic gum trees, the beauty of our natural surroundings fills me with a profound sense of contentment and joy.
Storytelling and deep listening have been the golden threads weaving through the fabric of my life since childhood. My ancestry is rich with the tradition of 'yarning'—a practice I was fortunate to experience as a little girl, surrounded by the women in my family who supported each other through the art of storytelling.
It is a privilege to work with individuals who courageously seek positive change in their lives. I recognise the bravery it takes to show up and be vulnerable. Rest assured, you will be met with kindness, humility, and generosity at every step of our journey together.
Warm regards,
Kristie
