I primarily work with older adolescents aged 16+ years and professional adults wanting help with adjustment to parenthood, ADHD, anxiety, body image/dysmorphia, depression, eating disorders, OCD, parent-adult child estrangement, stress and work-related burnout, childhood trauma and PTSD.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative and strength-based. I believe in creating a therapeutic space, where people feel safe and supported to share their vulnerabilities. I use integrated style in my sessions drawing from various evidence-based treatment modalities. I offer both short-term and long-term therapy depending on my client’s needs.

I have over 17 years of experience helping adults and young people (aged 15 to 26) within educational (University) and community settings.
You might be here because the bad days don’t seem to end, you're feeling emotionally exhausted or disconnected or you’re stuck in negative thought patterns like “I’m not good enough” or “I’ll never change”. Perhaps a past experience continues to affect your life today. Or maybe you're struggling with anxiety or chronic stress, depression or emotional numbness, difficult memories or traumatic experiences, relationship challenges, feeling disconnected from yourself or others, chronic pain, fatigue, or tension that feels emotional in origin.

I am also passionate about helping young adults find their purpose and passions through self discovery.
Hi, I'm Bronwyn. I understand that finding the right psychologist can be an exhausting process, which is why I offer a free 15-minute introductory phone call to see if we’d be the right fit for one another. (I know, it sounds a bit like matchmaking, right? But it is!) I like to think of myself as a human being first and a psychologist second. As an honest, down-to-earth, passionate person. my therapeutic style reflects these qualities. I thrive on building genuine connections with my clients, as I believe this is essential for any form of healing or growth.

I specialise in working with adults who come from a cultural minority background (immigrants, sexual minorities, religious minorities).
I am a registered psychologist who is committed to delivering genuine person-centered and strength-based therapy and providing a space that is safe, welcoming and free from judgements or stigma. As a therapist, I aim to assist and support clients in exploring their unique values and identities. Through my own lived experience, I have a deep understanding of the imbalance and distress we can feel when experiencing oppression or being unable to live our authentic lives. When supporting my clients – instead of assuming the expert position – I partner with them, exploring their potential and understanding who they want to be.

I’ve worked with children through to older adults, and have come to primarily focus on the treatment of adults.
I am a clinical psychologist who works across a variety of presentations including anxiety and mood disorders. I hope to bring a warm, empathic and authentic approach to the issues that people bring to therapy. I recognise the investment that people make when they share their difficulties with someone and commit to therapy, and work to honour that commitment by delivering evidence based treatments, that are tailored to a persons needs. I’ve benefitted greatly from the experience of working across a range of inpatient and outpatient hospital settings.

I'm a Clinical Psychologist offering therapy for adolescents (16+) and adults, and assessments (12+) for ADHD, autism, and learning differences.
Many of the people I work with feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. Some know exactly what’s going on, others just don’t feel like themselves, or have a quiet sense that things could be different. We might explore anxiety, mood, OCD, ADHD, trauma, burnout, identity, relationships, or something else entirely. I work with people of all identities and neurotypes, with a particular interest in LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent experiences. At Lavender Psychology, you're welcome just as you are. We’ll work gently toward relief, clarity, and a stronger sense of self.
