As a Clinical Director of The Health Lodge, Simon DuBois has more than 20 years’ experience supporting people in the Byron Shire. Over the years he has developed a reputation for helping his patients explore psychological distress in a relaxed and supportive environment.
Simon works with traditional treatment therapies, such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Schema Therapy and Mindfulness. He is also trained in Eye Movement Desensitisation Therapy (EMDR), Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) and Polyvagal Therapy for the treatment of trauma based distress and can provide treatment for depression and pain with the use of non-invasive Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS).
Using his experience and expertise as a Psychologist, Simon creates a relaxed and supportive environment in which personal challenges can be explored. He is an advocate for integrating mainstream medicine with complementary therapies, working in conjunction with Doctors, Naturopaths and somatic body therapies to improve wellness outcomes for clients. More recently Simon has embedded Polyvagal informed treatment approaches into his work.
Simon recommends that a minimum of six sessions is required to achieve the best results from his psychological treatments. The initial sessions are used to identify the issues or challenges you need to address. The remaining sessions are dedicated to crafting a customised approach that you can use to relieve the distress you’re experiencing.
Please note: Simon only accepts patients over 15 years of age.
At The Health Lodge, our Integrative Doctors (GPs) in Byron Bay are committed to giving you a level of health care that combines a medical and holistic approach. They practice functional medicine, a discipline focused on treating the underlying causes of disease, rather than on the symptoms alone. With a strong knowledge of how to successfully combine complementary and allied healthcare, our professional team is at the forefront of functional healthcare.
This collaborative and integrative approach ensures that you receive multiple treatment modalities and the collective knowledge of a dedicated team of professionals.
