You may appear to be coping on the outside, while inside feeling quite lost, empty, or disconnected. Others may not see it, but you might feel far away from yourself, unsure of who you are or what you truly want. Many people try to move away from this through achievement, relationships, or constant busyness — but sooner or later, something brings them back to a deeper question of themselves.
In therapy, we begin to slow things down and make space for what is there. It becomes a place where you can start to understand your inner world, and gently find your way back towards yourself.

You may be carrying pain that's hard to put into words. Perhaps it's the echo of past trauma, the fog of anxiety or depression, or the quiet ache of grief that doesn't seem to shift. Maybe you've spent years trying to hold everything together, all while feeling like you're falling apart inside. You're tired—of the overthinking, the emotional numbness, the disconnect in your relationships, the constant inner critic. You long for relief, but more than that, you want clarity, self-compassion, and a sense of wholeness. That's where we begin.

I have a strong interest in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, chronic health conditions, chronic pain and life transitions (such as work roles, migration, or life stages). I am also passionate about working with individuals from different cultures (particularly South East Asia) and adjusting to living in Australia as a migrant or international student, who are exploring their sense of self and identity, and reconciling their values with their new identity. I see therapy as a safe, non-judgemental, calm space to explore the issues in depth.

“Everyone has their own unique experiences and so the challenges that each person presents with is specific. Sometimes we might find it challenging to make progress with problems that arise in the present because we become reliant on our defence mechanisms that reinforce our pain. I believe when we truly feel supported and cared for, we become better equipped to explore ourselves, our inner experiences (emotions, thoughts and behaviours) and gain a clearer understanding of our individual needs and what is important.” - Sha Mazaheri

Personality Disorders Therapists
What are the common treatment options for personality disorders?
Personality disorders are typically treated with psychotherapy, sometimes in conjunction with medication. Therapy can help people with personality disorders develop skills to tolerate difficult emotions, navigate interpersonal relationships, and solidify their sense of self. Medications can treat symptoms that co-occur with the disorder, such as depression, anger, aggression, and impulsivity.
When to seek treatment for personality disorders?
Even though treatment for personality disorders can be an uphill battle, it’s best to seek help if you suspect that you or a loved one is struggling with one, because personality disorders can create substantial problems in life. Symptoms depend on the specific disorder, but overall signs of personality disorders include consistent difficulty maintaining close relationships, dramatic variations in self-esteem, and an unstable sense of identity.
How long does therapy take for personality disorders?
The timeline for treating personality disorders isn’t as clear-cut as it is for other disorders. Change can be difficult, taking from around one year to five, 10, or more. The key is finding a therapist who has extensive experience treating the relevant disorder. For example, a psychologist who specialises in narcissistic personality disorder has specific communication strategies that allow them to sustain the relationship and be more effective with narcissistic patients.
Can therapy help people with personality disorders?
Research suggests that for those who are motivated to address concerns or interpersonal conflict related to a personality disorder, therapy is far more effective than no treatment, and that most people in therapy see improvements. However, since personality disorders involve entrenched elements of identity, they are less responsive to treatment than are other mental health conditions. Finding an expert who has extensive experience working with a given personality disorder is one factor that increases the likelihood of successful treatment.
