Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Counselling in Cherrybrook, NSW

I am a registered psychologist with expertise spanning across the lifespan, working with children, adolescents, and adults across various funding avenues including Private, Medicare, and NDIS. My practice encompasses assessment, treatment, and management of a diverse range of mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, marital conflicts, autism, ADHD, psychosis, workplace interpersonal difficulties, and various life stressors such as chronic illness, unemployment, financial challenges, grief, and divorce. Additionally, I conduct cognitive assessments for both children and adults.

I have been working as a Clinical Psychologist for 15 years and value working collaboratively with clients. From this relationship, I seek to understand your situation with curiosity, openness and compassion. I will help you explore what might be maintaining current difficulties and work with you to adjust evidence-based strategies so they best suit you.

Take a deep breath. Welcome to a place of understanding and hope. You’re safe and cared for here. Get in touch, we’ll sit and talk, and you can tell me what’s been going on.

I'm Hitika Bhatia, Principal Clinician at Blossoming Minds Therapy, providing Psychosynthesis psychodynamic psychotherapy which emphasizes the integration of different aspects of the self. This approach is beneficial if you are seeking to explore how your past experiences impact your current relationships. This can lead to improved communication, and stronger connections with self, and others. Exploring difficult emotions in a safe, and supportive environment can help people reduce stress. By exploring unconscious thoughts, and emotions, people may find new sources of inspiration, and increase creativity.

I'm a firm believer that everyone could benefit from seeing a psychologist. We may not think twice about seeing GPs, physios, optometrists etc, all of which are important.

It is a privilege to be invited into your personal world so that you can be truly heard and seen. We can help you gain insight and make changes that perhaps have been too hard to face until now. All of this will be at your own pace.

We are a warm, safe and compassionate psychology practice located in the heart of Castle Hill.

I am a compassionate 'Person Centered' Counsellor supporting you to re- learn how to develop an optimistic sense of self, helping you to understand the roots and cause of internal conflicts. Change is not something we do. It arises out of a deeper experience with ourselves. Whether it be negative mindset, anxiety, depression, fear, relationship issues, chronic illness. It takes time to change entrenched behaviours developed in your lifespan. The therapeutic process of counselling, enables change of unwanted behaviours - using practical ways, making better life choices, one step at a time in a private and safe space.

As an overachiever you find yourself stressed and overwhelmed. You know it's important to practice self-care but increasingly you have found your mental health slipping. You're on the proverbial hamster wheel, burned out, feeling you've lost the capacity to meet the demands of competing roles at home and in the workplace. I am passionate about working with people in demanding work roles, be they professionals, entrepreneurs, or first responders. I also find deep value in working with clients who have identified the impact of the emotional trauma of their childhood in their current relationships and personal endeavours.

I am a qualified, skilled and highly experienced therapist. My approach is warm, compassionate and effective. I am committed to working in collaboration with each client to develop an individualised course of therapy that works. I know that everyone's needs are different so I tailor therapy accordingly. I offer both short term counselling to target specific issues and longer term therapy to identify, explore, and resolve the deeper underlying drivers of distress so that you can move towards living a life of choice, freedom and peace.
