Hello, my name is Cassie and I'm a clinical psychologist working with adolescents and adults. The main areas I work with are; Anxiety, Perfectionism, OCD, Low Self-Esteem and Trauma. Perhaps you are looking to better understand yourself and your relationships, to connect with your thoughts and feelings, to reduce stress and worry, improve your self-esteem, overcome trauma or work on something from the past that is holding you back?

Bo takes a down to earth, non-judgmental approach with families and individuals across the lifespan in establishing collaborative therapeutic goals. Psychological interventions are guided by these goals, along with consideration of the person's developmental stage and the presenting challenges.

I’m Kit - a Clinical Psychologist working in Melbourne, Victoria and remotely via telehealth. I have experience working in mental health services for young people and adults, providing assessment and treatment for a variety of mental health challenges. I support young people and adults with experiences of anxiety, stress, depression, OCD, and interpersonal challenges. I aim to provide a supportive, culturally sensitive and collaborative space for clients, grounded in warmth and curiosity.

I am a Clinical Psychologist who has worked in public and private mental health settings since 2008. I understand the many problems that can arise as a result of trauma, childhood abuse, stressful life circumstances and transitions, having worked with people who have experienced childhood and adult trauma, abuse and neglect. I have worked extensively with victims of sexual abuse and assault. I am experienced in the assessment and treatment of depression and mood disorders, panic and anxiety, OCD, anger issues, emotion regulation difficulties, grief and loss, relationship problems, post-traumatic stress, personality disorders.

I provide effective treatment for adults experiencing Anxiety, Panic attacks, OCD, Depression, Low Self -Esteem, Acute and Chronic stress & Burnout. My approach is to: (1) Understand the client as well as the environments in which they function (2) Teach clients effective techniques and coping strategies (3) Build strong skills to create sustainable change. Many people have seen various therapists throughout their lifetimes. Often they find themselves relapsing back to the same problems. Clients who undertake counselling with me will be guided on how to change long standing patterns of negative behaviours and progress forward.

A wish to get better, and a willingness to look inside oneself. These are the only essentials for success in therapy. I enjoy helping people with OCD and rumination to regain a sense of agency over their mind, people with depression to understand what is happening inside themselves that is causing their suffering and free themselves from it, people with PTSD to feel safe again and gain self-compassion and heal their nervous system, people with difficulty in relationships to understand what is happening and operate more smoothly, and helping people with many other difficulties to heal and move forward.

Individuals who find my approach particularly beneficial often experience mood-related challenges, such as depression and anxiety, or seek to embark on a therapeutic journey aimed at personal growth and development. In either case, every person brings their unique set of aspirations, and I can assist you in identifying and defining your specific goals. Therapy objectives often encompass relieving symptoms and acquiring effective mood management techniques. On a broader scale, these objectives often involve cultivating positive changes in one's lifestyle to enhance overall quality of life.

I am a psychologist with extensive experience across a range of corporate and educational settings. I provide a safe and supportive environment in which to explore and resolve challenging personal and relationship issues. I have a passion for working with couples, people looking to overcome trauma, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, anger and grief. I want to help you achieve a better understanding of why you feel the way you do, why you think in a particular way, and to challenge and shift behaviour patterns which are holding you back from experiencing a more connected, fulfilled and meaningful life.

I use Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) but I don't assume that that will suit everyone. That's why I am happy to use other proven modalities, including hypnosis. That's particularly effective in breaking the habit we call anxiety. My work with people who have Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) uses the approach of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy which is a skills based approach. My work is based on my belief that each person is a unique individual, rather than a diagnosis. DBT involves teaching each person the skills that will be most useful to them.

I have a rich background in assisting adults from various communities and lived experiences, including those within the LGBTIQ+ spectrum, as well as individuals from CALD (Culturally and Linguistically Diverse) backgrounds and those with disabilities. I am here to support you through life’s challenges, including anxiety, depression, grief, loss, and trauma. Located 5 minutes walk from Melbourne Museum and a short walk from Parliament Station.
