Dana Yalouz 

Registered Psychologist and EMDR Therapist

I am a registered psychologist, trauma specialist, and EMDR therapist, passionate about providing an empathetic and authentic experience for individuals seeking to understand themselves and create meaningful change.

​

I grew up in Sydney, near the eastern beaches, and have supported people across the lifespan in navigating a range of mental health challenges—including anxiety, panic, depression, trauma, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, substance use, neurodiversity, and more.

​

My clinical experience spans both public and private sectors, including work within multidisciplinary teams supporting young people with complex mental health needs. I also have experience working with the Australian Defence Force, including serving personnel, veterans, and their families.

​

Most recently, I have worked in private practice, specialising in supporting clients to process their trauma and empowering them to live more fulfilled and authentic life.

​

As a trauma therapist, I work within a parts framework and am trained in the following evidence-based therapies: 

  • EMDR - Eye-Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing

  • CBT - Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

  • DBT - Dialectical Behaviour Therapy

  • ST - Schema Therapy: Mode Model

  • ACT - Acceptance Commitment Therapy

  • ST - Somatic Therapy

Holistic Approach 
Approaching mental health holistically and building a strong therapeutic relationship are foundational to my practice. Integrating the mind-body connection is essential to fostering self-awareness, while developing a trusting and collaborative partnership between therapist and client is key to effective therapy.
​
When treating trauma, I combine EMDR (Eye-Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) therapy with a parts-based approach.  When paired with EMDR, parts work enhances the brain’s ability to safely and deeply reprocess distressing memories leading to lasting transformations and empowering individuals to live more fulfilled, authentic lives.
​
We are all continuously evolving and striving to become the best versions of ourselves. By embracing life with empathy and compassion, we gain deeper insight into our own experiences and those of others. This awareness not only helps us navigate present challenges but also guides us toward becoming the person we aspire to be.
​
I am committed to supporting you throughout your journey and am here for you every step of the way. Through open communication, mutual respect, and a shared dedication to learning and growth, I am confident that we can make meaningful progress together.
