Overview

Hi, I’m Sheyan! I’m a Provisional Psychologist with experience across private practice and school settings, offering both counselling and psychological assessments. I’m especially passionate about assessments for Autism, ADHD, and Specific Learning Difficulties in children and adults, and I take a human-first, collaborative approach in therapy. I enjoy working with Sri Lankan/South Asian men and neurodiverse individuals (being a Sri Lankan ADHDer myself), and I support clients with depression, anxiety, anger, grief, life transitions, postnatal depression, and relationship challenges. My therapeutic style is exploratory and strengths-based, drawing from CBT, ACT, Schema Therapy, and EMDR to help clients uncover patterns and build the tools they need. I provide assessments for individuals aged 6+ and counselling for adults 18+, and outside of work you’ll usually find me at the gym, walking my dog, or hyperfocusing on a PlayStation game (currently God of War: Ragnarök).
