Live Intentionally. Grow Together.
Counselling Psychologist & Couples Therapist
I help individuals and couples reconnect with themselves and each other using compassionate, evidence-based therapy grounded in attachment.
About Me
Hi, I'm Michelle Hammond
I'm a Counselling Psychologist and Couples Therapist based on the Sunshine Coast. But first and foremost, I'm simply a human being, just like you.
From a young age, I've pondered life's big questions, the purpose of our existence and how to live a fulfilling life. These questions have fueled my passion for understanding myself and others, and for helping people reconnect with their genuine, true selves.
Choosing a life committed to growth takes courage, and I'm here to support you on that journey.
My approach is grounded in compassion, understanding, and empathy. I view my role not as someone with all the answers, but as a supportive guide who helps you discover your own wisdom and return to your authentic self.

For individuals and couples
Through exploring emotions and attachment patterns, EFT helps you understand your needs, express them authentically, and create more secure connections—whether with yourself or with your partner.
This approach doesn't just address surface-level conflicts; it delves into the underlying emotions and attachment dynamics that shape our relationships and sense of self, creating profound healing.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a therapeutic approach grounded in attachment science, which emphasises the importance of emotional bonds and relationships in shaping human behaviour and well-being.

Living with Intention
Intentional Living Psychology stems from the belief that inner peace and harmony can be achieved when we start to live our lives consciously and with intention.
Living with intention means slowing down, pressing pause, and finding out where it is within or between that needs our attention.
It's about asking yourself: What kind of life do I want to lead? What kind of relationships would I like to nurture? How can I live a life that is true to who I truely am?
