Mrs Gina Salvagno

Psychotherapist (Registered)

“A highly experienced person centred empathic counsellor/psychotherapist specializing in marriage and couples counselling.”

About Me

I offer person-centred, empathic support for couples seeking stronger connections. Specialising in marriage Counseling, I help partners understand each other more deeply. Our sessions provide a balanced space where both voices are truly heard. This approach helps couples navigate challenges with renewed clarity. If you are ready to transform frustration, we can work together to build a more resilient relationship.

Approach

Working with couples, I create a measured space where each partner’s experience is slowed, named and honoured so new understanding can emerge. In Melbourne or online, sessions are steady and paced to suit busy lives, balancing focused listening with brief, practical experiments to try between meetings. We notice small shifts in mood, anxiety and self-worth, track patterns together and sharpen communication so stress feels more manageable. This approach suits adults and couples ready to practise different ways of relating and rebuilding connection.
