Salvatore Sorbello is a Registered Psychologist who has been part of Gymea Lily Psychotherapy Centre since 2009. He works with adult individuals and couples, offering a thoughtful, reflective, and strengths-based approach to therapy.

Before retraining as a psychologist, Salvatore worked for many years as an English and Drama teacher in Sydney high schools. This background informs his strong communication skills, creativity, and ability to connect with people from diverse walks of life.

Salvatore’s approach is grounded in positive psychology, with a focus on recognising and building on each person’s existing strengths, resources, and capacities. He works collaboratively with clients to support greater self-understanding, resilience, and meaningful change.

He has a particular interest in existential philosophy, which informs his work around questions of meaning, purpose, identity, and life direction. This perspective can be especially helpful for clients navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, and personal growth.

Salvatore supports clients with a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, stress, and adjustment difficulties. He integrates a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and solution-focused therapies, tailoring his work to each individual’s needs.

He also has experience in parenting support, including training in the Triple P (Positive Parenting Program).

Salvatore offers a calm, respectful, and engaging therapeutic space where clients can explore their experiences and work towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

He is available for appointments at Gymea Lily Psychotherapy Centre on Saturdays.
