Joel is a clinical psychologist, based in Thirroul (Illawarra). He believes all of us need help in our mental health journey from time to time. Joel aims to provide a space that is non-judgemental, open and understanding for you to talk about and work through the issues that are important to you. As a clinical psychologist, Joel is trained in assisting with a wide range of mental health difficulties, including trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, drug and alcohol issues and more. He also draws on his extensive research experience in developing trauma-focused therapies for refugee communities and in treating moral injury.
Joel's treatment approach is to use principles that have been shown to work (i.e. evidence-based) to tailor the sessions to each person's specific needs. He also draws on a wide range of therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Schema Therapy and Mindfulness amongst others.
Joel holds a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Clinical Psychology and Master of Clinical Psychology, from the University of New South Wales. He understands it can be difficult reaching out to a psychologist and finding the right match and is willing to discuss what he offers to ensure that it is the best fit for your needs.
