Andrea Thursky (She/her)Psychologist

Andrea is a warm, empathic, and compassionate psychologist who is passionate about helping people to identify and understand their struggles. She is dedicated to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment, recognising and respecting the diverse ways people express their identities, engage in relationships, and experience neurodivergence. She is neurodiversity affirming, sex positive, and LGBTIQA+ inclusive. Andrea has worked in a variety of settings including schools and private sectors, with clients from diverse backgrounds, across all ages. She has experience working with clients who have sought support for issues such as stress, depression, anxiety, chronic illness, chronic pain, grief and loss, substance use, anger, and life transition issues. Andrea also has experience supporting clients across a wide range of sexual health concerns, including sexual pain (e.g., vulvodynia, vaginismus, and dyspareunia), sexual health anxiety, desire and arousal dissatisfaction (including navigating desire differences and erectile difficulties), orgasm-related difficulties (e.g., anorgasmia and premature ejaculation), and STI diagnosis support. She provides affirming support for LGBTIQA+ individuals, people engaged in kink or non-monogamous relationships, sex workers, and those seeking sexual education. Andrea also works with clients navigating relationship changes or distress, as well as those adjusting to pregnancy, postpartum experiences, or new parenthood. She is particularly interested in supporting clients who are exploring their sexual well-being or reflecting on their sexual and gender identities.
