About the Business
Welcome to Individuals and Couples Counselling and Psychotherapy, located at 20A Gilmour Road, Bentleigh, Australia. If you're struggling with anxiety, a loss of confidence, or grief, our clinical therapy sessions are here to help you get back on your feet.
My name is Sylvie Braverman, and I am a compassionate and professional clinical counsellor and psychotherapist. I specialize in working with individuals and couples who are experiencing stress, anxiety, overwhelm, and a loss of confidence or uncertainty. I also provide support for those struggling with decision making and navigating through life's challenges.
I believe that every individual is the expert on their own life and experiences, and my aim is to establish a close and trusting therapeutic connection with my clients. I bring both my academic knowledge and personal life experiences to the session, as I have also faced trauma, grief, and disappointment.
Through the support of a professional therapist, self-reflection, and reconnecting with your inner self, it is possible to achieve psychological strength and post-traumatic growth. I utilize experiential person-centred therapy, emotion-focused therapy, and the Gottman method for couples counselling as my primary methods of service delivery. Additionally, I have a range of tools from other modalities that I can tailor to meet each client's unique needs.
As a qualified and experienced clinical counsellor and psychotherapist, you can trust that I will deliver exceptional therapy services. In light of the current global situation, I offer therapy sessions through Zoom, so you can have peace of mind knowing that you can still receive the support you need from the comfort of your own home.
It's important to remember that healing and personal growth take time. That's why I provide ongoing support to help you reach your desired outcomes. Each client has different experiences and challenges, which is why I apply a personalized approach to every individual I work with.
Don't just take my word for it, here's what some of my clients have said about their experience working with me:
"Sylvie has been observed to demonstrate an empathetic and non-judgmental style of communication with her clients. She is known as a hardworking and enthusiastic social worker who strives to achieve the best possible outcomes for her clients through applying her extensive knowledge and skills." - Pooja K.
"Sylvie brings an incredible warmth to her practice, easily building rapport and allowing people to feel really listened to. Her counselling is genuine, empathic, but also with a wealth of experience and knowledge across many disciplines in mental health that make her a unique therapist. I highly recommend her practice!" - Alison G.
"I have known Sylvie for over 20 years, both as a work colleague and more recently as a friend, and I can testify to her passion as both a Social Worker and a Counsellor. Her positive approach and dedication to her work make it a pleasure to work with her." - Fleur G.
If you're ready to take the first step towards healing and personal growth, I invite you to reach out and schedule a session with me. Together, we can navigate through life's challenges and help you find the strength and resilience you need.

Reviews
"Sylvie is such a considerate counsellor that provides a safe haven to talk openly & then gives specific feedback demonstrating that she has heard & understood your issues. Prior to going to Sylvie, I had tried other counsellors unsuccessfully, as felt they were not giving me anything in return. No advise or tools to help me navigate through. I felt that Sylvie's style was to help enable her patients. I thank her very much for getting me through a very difficult time in my life."
"It’s taken many years to find Sylvie. I have had various counselling in the past and Sylvie as a psychotherapist is by far the best person for me. She is very supportive and challenges my thought processes when necessary. I won’t be seeing anyone else."
"Sylvie has been most helpful and provided effective strategies.. she is highly knowledgeable and is a great listener."
"Our experience with Sylvie has been amazing as she creates a beautiful atmosphere, which made us feel very comfortable and safe. Sylvie is everything we were looking for in a counsellor!"
"I was sceptical about a counselling. It was an amazing experience. I learn a lot about myself. Sylvie managed to disclose and address my core problems. Thank you for your help in very warm, gentle and friendly approach."
