Hi I’m Kate. With over 20 years of experience working alongside individuals, I provide a compassionate and reflective therapeutic space for people from all walks of life. We all face challenging times—whether it’s anxiety, low mood, relationship strain, disconnection from ourselves, grief, guilt, shame, or navigating life transitions. In therapy, we gently explore the internal and relational patterns that may be keeping you stuck, overwhelmed, or emotionally depleted. These patterns can be shaped by past experiences, trauma, and current stress.

Psychotherapist, MA, PACFA
Ingleburn, NSW 2565
If you've been struggling to manage and still feeling stuck, I work with people who need more than surface-level strategies. My focus is complex trauma, PTSD, long-term recovery, and the impact of systems, relationships, and life events that leave lasting consequences. My approach is practical, grounded, and centred on restoring stability, safety, and agency. I’m SIRA registered and support NDIS (self-managed or plan-managed) participants. I work independently of Medicare so clients can access therapy without formal diagnoses, session limits, or GP involvement. Some private health rebates may apply depending on your provider.

Many people appear to be coping on the outside while privately feeling overwhelmed, anxious or emotionally exhausted. They may be living with the effects of trauma, navigating a toxic workplace, struggling with financial stress, questioning their career direction, or feeling stuck in patterns they can't seem to change. Over time, anxiety, self-doubt, burnout, relationship difficulties and a loss of confidence can begin to affect every area of life. I provide a warm, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can slow down, feel heard and begin to make sense of what you're experiencing.

Divya Prabakrishnan
Psychologist, PsyBA General
Burwood, NSW 2134
I have experience helping teens, adults and elder adults with various mood & personality disorders.
Hi, my name is Divya, and I am a registered psychologist with a passion to support and empower individuals in their mental health journey. Our past traumas and experiences shape how we view and interact with the world, often influencing our responses and emotions. Without proper support, we may develop unhelpful coping mechanisms, leading to unresolved pain and making life overwhelming. This can manifest as anxiety, depression, interpersonal conflicts, low self-esteem, etc. With these inner-conflicts, seeking to start understanding yourself better and learning to adopt healthier coping skills is a brave step to transform and heal.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
