Tamara Lukic is a psychologist based in Bulimba, Brisbane. You can find her at Unit 5, 27 Godwin Street, Bulimba QLD 4171. Tamara works with individuals, couples, and families, helping people make sense of what they are going through and find practical ways to cope.
In therapy, the focus is usually on everyday problems that can start to feel heavy over time. That might include stress building up, sleep and worry that won’t let go, or feeling stuck in the same patterns again and again. At times it can be about relationships too—how to talk when things get tense, how to repair after conflict, or how to understand what is really going on underneath.
Tamara also offers family therapy. This can be helpful when change is happening at home, or when different members of the family are struggling in different ways. Sometimes it’s about communication. Other times it’s about routines, expectations, and making space for everyone’s needs so things don’t keep tipping into the same arguments.
For many people, therapy brings a mix of emotions. You might feel overwhelmed one day and unsure the next. Tamara uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) tools, which can be a steady way to work through thoughts, feelings, and habits. CBT is often used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more balanced ways of looking at things.
Alongside CBT, Tamara supports stress management. This might include learning techniques to slow your body down when you’re in a heightened state, building better coping skills for tough moments, and creating small, doable changes in day-to-day life. It’s not about trying to “switch off” stress. It’s more about building a toolkit you can use when life gets busy or hard.
Couples counseling is another part of her work. When you’re in a relationship, it’s normal to disagree. The tricky bit is what happens after the argument. Tamara helps couples get back to clear, respectful communication, work through ongoing issues, and figure out ways to move forward that feel fair for both people.
Appointments are centred on feeling understood and building a plan that fits. Over time, many clients find that talking things through, learning practical strategies, and checking in regularly helps them feel more in control. Tamara keeps sessions grounded and focused on what’s happening now, with space to explore what has led you here.
