Glimmers Clinical Psychology – Supporting Families, Children & Couples

At Glimmers Clinical Psychology, we provide evidence-based, trauma-informed therapy for couples, children, adolescents, and families. Our goal is to help you navigate life’s challenges, strengthen connection, and build emotional resilience.

For couples, we use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) & Gottman to address conflict, disconnection, or recovery from breaches of trust. EFT helps partners understand negative cycles, communicate more effectively, and rebuild emotional safety.

For children and adolescents, we support anxiety, ADHD, autism, perfectionism, emotional regulation, behavioural challenges, and school-related stress. Younger children benefit from play and narrative therapies, while older children and teens respond well to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and adapted Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). For OCD, we use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Parent sessions are collaborative and practical, providing strategies you can implement at home and school.

We also offer comprehensive autism and ADHD assessments delivered with clarity and neuroaffirming language.

Alana Garton is the Director and Clinical Psychologist at Glimmers. With extensive clinical experience — including 7 years working with families and couples in Wollongong and the Illawarra — Alana provides therapy that is structured, collaborative, and deeply human. Whether you’re seeking support for your relationship, your child, or your family as a whole, we create a safe and supportive space to help you feel understood, equipped, and empowered.
