ADHD Psychologists and Therapists in Australian Capital Territory
Looking for a therapist who 'just gets it'? I'm Maggie Whitbread and I work mainly with clients wanting to: overcome/manage anxiety, break out of cycles of behavior that no longer serve them, communicate better, understand themselves, navigate life transitions, and start living authentically and whole-heartedly. As my client, you'll benefit from my patience, warmth, sense of humor, and my open-minded, integrative, modern approach to therapy. My day job is with a perinatal counselling service, so I also specialise in supporting people through pregnancy and postpartum.

My core frameworks are ACT, Schema Therapy, and EMDR — combining present-focused values work, deeper pattern exploration, and trauma processing. I also draw on CBT and Motivational Interviewing. Sessions are available in person and via telehealth. Whatever the approach, the priority is a space where your experience is taken seriously.
