Welcome, I'm glad you have come across my profile. While I welcome all enquiries, I can help you address attachment issues, trauma, men’s issues, and existential concerns. With my lived experience in attachment trauma and family system dysfunction, studies in Counselling & Psychotherapy, and range of client work, I have an in-depth appreciation for what ‘doing the work’ entails. I partake in therapy myself, I am a Sessional Lecturer at the Ikon Institute of Australia, and am passionate about and dedicated to this work.

I offer a warm and respectful therapeutic space to adolescents (16+ years) and adults, taking a collaborative approach with each client to develop a treatment plan that recognises their unique strengths and values, and works to address their current challenges, while also promoting their overall health and wellbeing. I draw on various therapy models to do so, including CBT, DBT, EMDR (an evidence-based treatment for trauma), Internal Family Systems, mindfulness and attachment-focused approaches.

Bulk Bill or reduced fee available! What's most important to me is that you leave therapy with a sense of hope. I want to help you feel empowered to be the person you want to be. I take a client-led approach, meaning that we'll work together to address what you want to work on and I won't push you to discuss anything you're not ready for. Together, we'll design a personalized treatment plan that you feel willing and able to engage in - a plan that revolves around growth. My goal is to help you not only manage symptoms but also enhance your overall well-being.

Hello, my name is Caitlin, and I'm a clinical psychologist currently offering F2F and telehealth sessions at my cosy home clinic in Wahroonga. While I take mental health seriously, I try not to take myself or life too seriously. I believe therapy is effortful, taxing and hard, so it is important for my patients to feel as comfortable as possible in this process.

I am a Clinical Psychologist who is passionate about supporting clients to live a life full of meaning and vitality. I believe in the importance of the therapeutic relationship, and endeavour to offer a warm, supportive space where you can feel safe to be vulnerable and explore any deeper issues driving your unhappiness or distress. I am trained in working with a full range of presentations, with a particular interest in working with anxiety disorders, OCD, eating disorders, and body image issues. I also enjoy providing longer-term therapy targeting ongoing patterns of behaviour linked to painful past experiences or unmet needs.

Whether you want to learn strategies to regain mental health; regulate intense emotions; navigate life's complexities and relationships; manage stress or simply maintain optimal wellbeing and balance, I take a compassionate, collaborative and client-centred approach in employing evidence based treatment relevant to the uniqueness of the client. Working with adolescents and adults from a predominantly DBT-informed lens, I encourage people to take an active role in devising treatment goals and firmly believe that each individual is the expert on themselves. I strive to consistently embody non-judgment and flexibility in all that I do.

I take great pleasure in working with clients who are open to exploring their issues and challenges, uncovering their strengths, and fostering insight and growth through creative ventures. It's worth mentioning that no art experience or skills are required for clients to derive benefits. Each person is nurtured in a supportive environment to find their creative path. However, a willingness to engage in the creative process is a prerequisite for the effectiveness of this therapeutic approach.

I believe that therapy is a time and space to work on what's important to you. I have experience helping individuals overcome a wide diversity of life's challenges and the consequences that follow, including depression, anxiety, obsessions and compulsions, grief, trauma, and complicated relationships. Although I also recognize that often the personal challenges that many of us face do not fit neatly into diagnostic labels and I hope to appreciate the unique aspects of every individual I have the pleasure of working with.

Loneliness or being alone impacts every facet of our lives. If we find ourselves unsupported or misunderstood in our primary relationships, the rest of our life may feel as though it is collapsing around us. Mental health, physical health, productivity, diet, sleep... relationships can either heal and help us to flourish, or they can cripple. It is my passion to help clients heal through relationship. I work with families, couples and individuals, beginning with these key relationships to help create a system that offers safety, healing and happiness.
