GAEL MEADOWCROFT - PSYCHOLOGIST

I am an experienced registered psychologist specialising in cognitive therapies for individuals coping with a range of mental health issues and life stressors, including anxiety, trauma, OCD, depression, relationship issues and work stressors. I work with each individual to identify barriers and sources of distress or dissatisfaction in their life. I use an active, skills-based approach to help clients change thinking patterns and behaviours leading to happier and more satisfying lives. I offer a supportive, compassionate and collaborative environment to help my clients strengthen their capacities to manage difficult challenges and achieve their goals.
I treat a variety of problems including the following:
 
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Phobias (e.g. Agoraphobia, Social Phobia)
  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
  • Bereavement and adjustment to loss
  • Self-esteem / Assertiveness problems
 
  •  Panic Attacks
  • Health Anxiety
  • Social Anxiety
  • Occupational Stress
  • Acute Stress Disorder
  • Relationship difficulties
  • Examination / college or school stress
 

I have a degree and honours in psychology and a Masters in Educational and Developmental psychology from Melbourne University.  I have practiced in a variety of settings for over 25 years, most recently in my own practice.  I am trained in CBT, ACT and Schema therapies as well as EMDR (rapid eye movement), perinatal and clinical hypnosis. This variety of therapies are drawn upon to suit the individual’s needs.   I love being a ‘generalist’ and seeing a range of age groups –from primary school through to the elderly.
