Back Home in Brisbane

Back Home in Brisbane

Ewan Nicholson-Brisbane QLD

I moved to Brisbane when I was 15 and lived here until I was 30. And after years of living and working overseas, I eventually came back home.

For the past four years, I’ve been running my private therapy practice here in Moorooka, on the south side of Brisbane.

Coming back wasn’t just a lifestyle decision. It was personal. Brisbane is familiar to me. I understand the culture, the pace, the pressures. I understand what it’s like to raise a family here, to juggle work and cost of living, to try and hold things together while quietly carrying anxiety, stress, or old wounds.

In my practice, I work with adults who are navigating trauma, burnout, relationship difficulties, and that persistent feeling of not being enough. My approach blends somatic therapy, Gestalt-informed practice, and mindfulness. We work not just with thoughts, but with the nervous system. With the body. With the deeper patterns that keep repeating.

Over the last four years in Moorooka, I’ve had the privilege of supporting people from across Brisbane’s south side and beyond. My focus is steady, grounded work that helps you feel safer in yourself, not dependent on someone else’s approval or circumstances to feel okay.

If you’re looking for a therapist in Brisbane who understands both the local landscape and the deeper psychological work, I’m here.

Brisbane is home. And it’s where I do this work.
