Tobi Harris

Since commencing clinical practice in 2018, Tobi has worked with clients that present with diagnosis relating to Eating Disorders, Personality Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorders, Addiction Issues, Anxiety, Depression, Grief and Loss, Relationship Issues, Emotional Dysregulation, and Sexuality and Identity.

Tobi is a mindful and positive psychotherapist. She is dedicated to supporting adult and adolescent clients to navigate their own journey and create a life worth living. Her approach supports clients to deepen their understanding of themselves, and by doing so, she offers the skills when necessary to help. She works with unconscious processes and aims to not only alleviate the most obvious symptoms but to help people lead healthier lives.

Tobi uses several evidence-based modalities to work with her clients’ including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Radically Open Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (RO-DBT), Chair Work Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Tobi has worked in both public and private mental health hospitals, as well as eating disorder units.

In 2023, Tobi completed training with Monash University- Clinical Psychedelic Lab to support the preparation stage of MDMA Assisted Therapy to individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and eating disorders.

Tobi offers counselling and coaching sessions to parents/carers in recognition of the importance of assisting them in supporting their loved ones with eating disorders.
