I saw Dr Bakker for CBT and found him incredibly practical and easy to talk to. The sessions in New Town felt comfortable, and he gave me clear steps to work on at home. I’ve already noticed small changes and feel more in control at work.
My partner and I attended couples counseling with Dr Bakker after a rough period. He helped us communicate better and understand each other’s triggers. The sessions were respectful and well-structured, and I left feeling hopeful about our relationship.
I was anxious and unsure where to start, but Dr Bakker’s approach to CBT made sense from day one. He explained things in plain language and gave me tools I could actually use. Highly recommend for anyone in the Hobart area needing practical therapy.
As a father juggling work and family stress, I found family therapy with Dr Bakker to be incredibly supportive. He listened without judgment and helped us set realistic goals. Our home feels calmer after a few sessions in New Town.
Dr Bakker is empathetic and thoughtful. He helped me understand the link between my thoughts and behaviours and gave me strategies I could apply between appointments. The environment at Archer Street is quiet and conducive to reflection.
I started with individual therapy to work through some burnout. The techniques Dr Bakker taught me, especially around cognitive restructuring, have made a real difference. I’d recommend him to anyone in the Launceston area seeking practical psychological support.
Great experience with Dr Bakker. He’s professional, easy to talk to, and focused on real outcomes. My mood has improved and I’ve learned how to handle stressful situations more effectively. Appreciate the clear plan he provided.
