Dr. Donna O'Connor

I am a AHPRA Registered Psychologist (PSY0002929940). I have been working in mental health services since 2009. I initially worked as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) in the UK with both child and adult populations before obtaining my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at the University of Liverpool in 2017. Since then I have worked in primary care mental health services and in the private sector working with adults who experience common mental health problems such as depression, anxiety & I have a particular interest in working with post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I tailor a range of therapeutic approaches to provide a holistic therapy that matches each individual’s particular needs. I place a strong emphasis on providing a warm, accepting, and therapeutic environment for clients to safely and collaboratively explore the underlying reasons for their difficulties, develop effective coping skills and achieve personal well-being.
