I am a clinical psychologist currently working in private practice. I work with children, adolescents and adults experiencing a range of difficulties including anxiety, trauma, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, social anxiety and personality disorders. My therapeutic approach is informed by attachment theory, family systems theory, emotion focused therapy (EFT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). I have previously worked in school settings and I have also facilitated therapy groups for social anxiety disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder.
Research has shown that the therapeutic relationship is a significant factor in the effectiveness of therapy. I focus on building a strong therapeutic alliance in order to assist clients in identifying their personal challenges as well as their strengths. I aim to provide a patient, compassionate and non-judgmental approach to therapy.
I can provide telehealth sessions. Please go to marialightpsychology.com.au for my website.
