Ms Zayna Karam Karam-Simmond Social Worker

Think Well Therapy Brisbane, Queensland, 4075

Overview

Zayna specialises in providing online telehealth mental health care. With over 15 years of experience in mental health across Australia and internationally, Zayna brings warmth, humour, and authenticity to her work. As an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker she recognises that mental health is influenced by so much more than psychology alone. She understands how family, friends, neurobiology, physical health and circumstances all play a role in how we cope and feel. Zayna believes that therapy should feel open and relatable so her approach is genuine, realistic, and evidence based. Zayna has extensive experience supporting individuals across a range of circumstances including life transitions, work/life balance, parenting, grief and loss, perinatal mental health, depression, anxiety, traumatic experiences and environments, and relationships. Along with work Zayna juggles parenting three children, and post grad study in neuroscience and mental health. She completed her Bachelor of Social Work in 2009. She is the proud owner of a cat who thinks it’s a border collie, and a dalmatian, who has no interest in being outdoors.
