Mrs Margie Ulbrick, BA

Relationship Therapist

“An experienced caring compassionate and skilled therapist working in the area of trauma and couples counselling.”

About Me

This therapist helps couples and individuals navigate the complexities of trauma and relationship challenges. Drawing on extensive experience and a compassionate approach, they offer a skilled space to heal past wounds. Utilising techniques like Somatic Experiencing, sessions gently guide you towards reconnection and lasting change. Those seeking a supportive, understanding environment will find a dedicated ally here.

Approach

With a steady, compassionate focus I prioritise safety and measured pacing so you can face trauma and relationship strain without feeling overwhelmed. I work with adults and couples in Melbourne and online, in English, blending practical skills, reflective discussion and clear homework that fits your life. In sessions we track patterns, practise new ways of interacting and use gentle body‑aware exercises to reduce tension and rebuild connection. This approach suits people seeking grounded, collaborative steps toward repair, clearer communication and lasting change.
