Newcastle Counselling and Psychotherapy

Welcome to Newcastle Counselling and Psychotherapy, a trusted establishment dedicated to providing independent, unbiased, and progressive therapy services to the community of Newcastle and its surrounding areas. Located in the heart of Newcastle West on Hunter Street, our institution is a prominent point of interest for those seeking mental health support.

At Newcastle Counselling and Psychotherapy, we understand that there are countless reasons why individuals may seek counselling and psychotherapy. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, navigating relationship difficulties, experiencing loss or grief, struggling with parenting, grappling with your past, battling addiction, dealing with depression, questioning your identity or sexuality, or simply finding it hard to fit into this world, our team of professionals is here to help.

We believe that habitual or fixed ways of being often hinder our ability to experience our true selves and explore the range of possibilities available to us. This is where our experienced and empathetic relational counsellors and psychotherapists come in. By working with us, you can gain new insights into your life situation and uncover your own self-supportive mechanisms.

Our therapy space offers a non-judgemental, safe, and supportive environment where you can freely explore and make sense of your life experiences and your current mental and emotional landscape. Led by Paul Kamphuis, an experienced Gestalt psychotherapist and Counsellor, our team is well-equipped to assist with a wide range of clinical and personal issues. Paul's areas of specialty include intimacy and complex relationships, sexuality, anxiety, depression, family dynamics, and living with a disability. He is a clinical member of PACFA and has undergone extensive training in various therapeutic modalities such as Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Relationship dynamics, Depth Enquiry, Transactional Analysis, Emotion Focused Therapy, Suicide Narratives, and Non-Violent Communication.

Don't just take our word for it - our satisfied clients speak for themselves. They have expressed their gratitude for Paul's understanding and support, highlighting the positive impact his sessions have had on their lives. We invite you to experience the transformative power of counselling and psychotherapy with Paul and our team.

Our new clinic is conveniently located at Room 4, Level 1, 744 Hunter Street, Newcastle West, NSW 2302. You can find us in the Bank Corner building, opposite Muso's Corner, on the corner of Bellevue Street above Bank Corner Espresso Cafe. We are open on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, with flexible appointment times to accommodate your schedule. To book an appointment, please give us a call or send us an email. If you are unable to reach us, please leave a voicemail or send a text message, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

When it comes to transportation, please note that parking in the area is metered and timed. We recommend allowing extra time to find parking, as spaces are limited due to ongoing roadworks. Alternatively, various bus routes pass by our location, and you can find public transport information on the Transport NSW website. If you prefer free parking, Marketown Shopping Centre (the Coles end off Parry Street) is just a short 5-minute walk from our clinic and offers 3 hours of free parking.
