Mrs Sandra van Kerkwyk Psychologist

General Psychologist & Board-Approved Supervisor: Sandra has been practicing as a Registered Psychologist in Mackay for over 8 years. She shares her time between Child and Youth Mental Health and the Private setting, with a passion for helping people across the lifespan overcome issues related to anxiety, worry, stress, depression, trauma, adjustment, relationship/family issues, and simply just processing aspects of life. Sandra integrates a range of evidence-based interventions to provide a tailored approach, working from an insight-oriented, relational, and systemic framework. Sandra has an authentic and empathic therapeutic style to bring warmth and safety to the therapeutic relationship, assisting patients to make sense of their difficulties and create meaningful change. Sandra also offers psychometric assessment, specifically IQ testing and adaptive behaviour assessments across the lifespan. This is useful in diagnosing intellectual disabilities, and in identifying cognitive strengths and weaknesses and planning intervention around this. Sandra accepts Medicare, NDIS, and Private referrals, and offers patient appointments on Saturdays. Availability: 1 Days Per Week – Calendar Open to Existing and Previous Clients.
