Hi I'm Kodi (They/She), I'm a compassionate and dedicated Provisional Psychologist with a strong commitment to supporting clients from CLAD and LGBTQIA+ backgrounds. As a queer, and neurodivergent clinician, my lived experience within the community aids me to innately empathise with experiences clients may be navigating. My experience encompasses a broad array of client presentations, including ADHD, gender identity, gender dysphoria, dissociative disorders, mood disorders, family and relational conflicts, complex trauma/abuse.
My main mission is to create a warm and welcoming therapeutic space where everyone feels included and valued, especially those in the CLAD, LGBTQIA+, and neurodivergent communities. I love helping clients embrace and be kind to the parts of themselves they might find challenging, while also equipping them with the tools to navigate life's twists and turns.
I use a mix of therapeutic approaches, including ACT, DBT, IFS, and parts of CBT, to ensure my practice is neuro-affirming and rooted in lived experience. I prioritise a client-led approach, providing a safe, trauma-informed space where clients can always say no, speak bluntly, and skip the eye contact if they prefer.
