Christine Perkins

Clinical Psychology Registrar

Do you find yourself struggling with where you are versus where you’d like to be?

Have you had a lot of change lately or do you have a history of anxiety or depression which continues to be an issue for you?

Do you find yourself overthinking or constantly distracting yourself?

Are you having difficulties with family members or in relationships? If so, it might be the right time to come to therapy. I’m a gentle, calm, and highly experienced psychologist.

I’ve worked with individuals and families in public and private health settings for over 15 years. I’ve worked in both Australia and the UK and offer supervision to other psychologists and therapists. I completed a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology in 2024 and am working towards full endorsement as a Clinical Psychologist with AHPRA.

My areas of interest and expertise include:
– Struggles with self-criticism, guilt and shame
– Anxiety and stress
– Adjustment to change (e.g. aging, ill health, grief and loss)
– Depression and low mood
– Stress and workplace challenges
– Relationship challenges, isolation and loneliness
– Parenting support including peri and post-natal mental health
– Grief and loss
– Therapy, supervision and self-care for health professionals

I will personalise my approach to your situation, utilising Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and other therapeutic models in line with your preferences and the literature on best practice.
When I’m not working you’ll find me with my head in a good book, listening to music, or enjoying time with my young family.
