Growth in Mind Psychology
Peta, a Psychologist in Brisbane, is focussed on helping clients grow in the aspects of their life that are currently important and impactful to them. Personal growth varies across the lifespan and can be particularly poignant during transition phases such as starting school, moving into adolescence, early adulthood and navigating parenting. I have a particular interest in working with children and adolescents and their families, young adults, parents and perinatal clients and young people with Scoliosis. In addition to counselling, I am experienced and interested in Psycho-educational Assessment. Prior to moving into private practice, I worked extensively as a Psychologist in Brisbane in both the primary and secondary school setting and in early intervention health settings. I use a number of therapeutic techniques including: cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance commitment therapy (ACT), solution focussed therapy (SFT), circle of security (COS) attachment focused therapy, zones of regulation, growth mindset/ resilience focused skill development and mindfulness.
