I'm psychologist and active researcher (Curtin University & University of Western Australia) in the areas of emotion, emotion regulation, and alexithymia. I enjoy working with people to help them achieve their goals and live more fulfilling lives. My work often focuses on helping people to better understand, process, and manage their emotions, thoughts, and behaviours. This can be in terms of addressing mental health difficulties (e.g., depression, anxiety) or for personal development. In therapy I try to create a warm, friendly environment, where people can feel comfortable discussing key areas of their life. I use a variety of evidence-based techniques tailored to clients’ individual needs and goals (e.g., cognitive behaviour therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, schema therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy). Feel free to contact me via email or phone if you would like to book a face-to-face or telehealth/online appointment. You can also have a look at my website here: https://blackswanpa.com/
