Aleksandra (Registered Psychologist)

As a Registered Psychologist with 16 years of experience working in the psychology field, I have a strong commitment and passion to supporting people reach their goals, and helping people feel empowered in their journey towards well-being. Throughout this time, I have worked in the government and private settings. I have extensive experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self esteem, confidence, & depression. With warmth, empathy and compassion, I seek to offer clients experiences of feeling genuinely heard, accepted and understood, and to provide support through learning new skills and developing deeper understanding of oneself. Through this we work towards the goals most important to you, enhancing mental well-being and developing greater life satisfaction.

I am passionate about helping my clients realise their true potential. I believe that everyone has the capacity for growth and change, and I work collaboratively with my clients to help them identify and overcome the obstacles that are holding them back.

How I help will depend on a few factors such as the issue being addressed, how far we are in therapy and the therapeutic relationship. This means that sometimes I can be directive and encourage you to do things, and other times it means simply listening to and guiding you. My aim is to help you navigate through life using a variety of strategies and facilitate individual change in a safe environment. No matter what, I will always be genuine and compassionate.

My approach is warm, empathetic, and non- judgmental, and I strive to create a safe and supportive space where my clients can feel comfortable exploring their thoughts and feelings.
