Mr Girish Hiremath Psychologist

clinic location

Overview

I am a Clinical Psychologist Bendigo based and practice within the Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy framework. My focus for longer-term work is on the connection between our psychological difficulties in adulthood and our unresolved or unsatisfactory experiences in early life which we are often not aware of, and which are re-triggered by distress associated with current life difficulties and symptoms. I work from a Psychoanalytic / Psychodynamically informed model, which is a psychological treatment that can assist people with a range of difficulties such as underlying confusion with who one is, issues relating to anxiety and depression, problems in living, sexuality and sexual identity, unresolved grief and relationship difficulties that have not responded to other forms of treatment, such as medication or cognitive behaviour therapy.
