Phoebe, psychologist working with adolescents, adults and families living with mental health difficulties

Phoebe is currently on leave.

Phoebe is a LGBTQIA+ friendly and sex-worker allied psychologist and has experience working with adolescents, adults and families living with mental health difficulties in both public and private mental health settings.

Phoebe embraces an integrative, person-centred and collaborative approach to therapy and draws upon Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Schema Therapy techniques.

Phoebe nurtures a compassionate and warm environment that enables her clients to feel safe to bring their whole selves to therapy. Her openness and curiosity encourages clients to explore and understand the impact of their experiences, supporting them to make sense of themselves and find hope in their future. Outside of her days at Symmetry, Phoebe also works within a community mental health clinic, facilitating individual and group therapy for those living with chronic pain.
