Hi, I’m Eric Brunet.
Taking the step to speak with a psychologist requires immense courage. Over a professional career spanning more than two decades, I have dedicated my practice to helping adults navigate complex distress, profound uncertainty, and life-altering transitions. My goal is to build a collaborative, holistic partnership with you - moving at a deliberate, considered pace that respects your unique story, reduces distress, and actively strengthens your personal sense of meaning.

Support Approach
Eric provides a calm, deeply grounded, and completely non-judgmental space tailored specifically for adults. Eric has an expansive background that enables him to hold space for individuals dealing with highly sensitive, multi-layered situations, specialising in:
Trauma & Complex Distress
Sensitivity-focused recovery for individuals working through deeply impactful or chronic trauma
Mood & Anxiety Disorders
Strategic, therapeutic intervention to help manage and resolve persistent depression, panic, and overwhelming worry.
Addictive Behaviours
Evidence-based guidance designed to address substance reliance and establish sustainable relapse prevention
Work Difficulties & EAP
Specialised support for professionals navigating executive pressure, critical workplace conflict, and chronic burnout
Therapeutic Approach
I believe that meaningful, lasting change happens within an authentic and trusted relational process. Rather than a rigid, one-size-fits-all model, I draw from over 20 years of clinical counselling experience to integrate a variety of evidence-based modalities, including:
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) Skills
Psychodynamic & Relational Processes
