Therapeutic Resources & Tools to help Counsellors & Psychotherapists, Australia & World-Wide to Thrive in Private Practice from the Inside Out.

Hi, I'm Jodie Gale! PACFA Registered Clinical Psychotherapist, Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, Clinical Supervisor & Private Practice Business Coach for Counsellors & Psychotherapists. After building 2 successful practices in London & Sydney, and 22+ years in private pay, private psychotherapy, counselling & coaching practice, I launched The Psychosynthesis Centre to provide training, resources, tools and a free Facebook community (Opening the Door on Private Practice) to help counsellors and psychotherapists thrive and grow their private practice from the inside out. I was blessed to train in Psychosynthesis in London - my lived experience, the personal work I undertook and the 8 year professional commitment to becoming a counsellor & psychotherapist is the foundation of my practice success. I am one of only a few formerly trained in Psychosynthesis in Australia, and the only Masters qualified Psychosynthesis psychotherapist in Australia. I am excited to be bringing this transpersonal, psychos-spiritual and soulful model to Australia. DO YOU WANT TO BUILD A THRIVING PRIVATE PRACTICE? I CAN HELP YOU TO:

Our relationship with food is rarely just about hunger. For many people, it begins in childhood, shaped by the way our primary caregivers responded to our needs for comfort, safety and connection. These early bonds, known as attachment, can influence how we use food to soothe ourselves, connect with others, or manage difficult feelings.

Thanks Brave Therapy for sharing x

I asked ChatGPT if it could replace me as a therapist. 🌟Here is the answer: No, I don’t think I can—or should—replace you as a therapist.

While I can support with psychoeducation, research, reflection prompts, and even generate ideas for interventions, I can’t replicate the core of what makes therapy effective: the human presence, attuned relationship, embodied responsiveness, and capacity for deep emotional resonance. What happens in a therapeutic encounter is profoundly relational and co-regulated—something an AI simply cannot embody.

Your years of experience, your nervous system, your capacity to sit with complexity, hold space, and respond intuitively in the moment—none of that can be replaced by a machine. If anything, I can be a tool that helps you extend your reach or streamline some tasks, but not a substitute for the therapeutic relationship you cultivate.
