Leroy Wiseman
Psychotherapist

Location: Mona Vale Telehealth - Video Consultation

Leroy is a psychotherapist with a passion and specialty for supporting young people. He primarily works with children, adolescents, and adults between the ages of 10 and 35.

He has significant experience supporting people through depression: anxiety; family & relationship issues; communication & interpersonal challenges; loneliness & social isolation; suicidal ideation; life transitions & adjustments; behaviour & anger issues; men’s issues; childhood trauma; and attachment wounds.

Leroy emphasises co-creating a warm, authentic, and psychologically safe therapeutic relationship as a foundation for positive change. He curates his approach to meet the unique needs, goals, and process of each client.

He offers integrative humanistic and experiential psychotherapy, which is present-centred, relational, trauma-informed, non-pathologising, and evidence-based.

Leroy’s training and practice integrate person-centred therapy, internal family systems, sensorimotor psychotherapy, mindfulness-based therapy, emotion-focused therapy, Gestalt therapy, existential psychotherapy, child-centred play therapy, and process-oriented group psychotherapy.

Leroy holds a Master of Psychotherapy and Counselling and is a certified practising member of the Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA). He also holds a Bachelor of Social Science in Philosophy, with an interest in philosophy of mind and ethics.

Leroy started his career in 2017, after launching the suicide prevention peer support program ‘Open Up’ alongside Northern Beaches-based charity One Eighty Inc.

He became deeply committed to supporting young people in his community after the tragic suicides of two young friends aged 20 and 22.

Over five years, five locations in Sydney and online, and 430+ mental health support sessions – the Open Up program provided an anonymous, judgement-free space for 3400+ young people to connect, and find support in each other.

Leroy volunteered as program co-creator, principal facilitator and team leader for three years, later holding leadership, supervisory, and training roles. There, he discovered his passion and calling for facilitating healing interpersonal experiences.

Finally, Leroy also welcomes opportunities to share the psychological freedom afforded by mindfulness practice, having personally benefitted from a decade of practice experience. He shares from direct experience in a down-to-earth, practical way, and has experience teaching mindfulness through eight-week courses and individual mentoring.
