Biography:
Hey there, I’m George (he/him). I’m a registered psychologist currently based in Mparntwe (Alice Springs) on beautiful Arrernte Country.
I have completed a Doctor of Psychology (Clinical), which basically means that I have an interest in research as well as being a psychologist. My research was on the topic of ADHD and sleep problems in adolescents.
My passion is helping people to improve their lives. To do this, I draw from a wide variety of different therapies, including Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Schema Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). More importantly, however, I will aim to create a strong, collaborative, and respectful therapeutic relationship with you, because research shows that this is actually the most important factor in therapy. I will take the time to listen to your story, get to know you, and collaborate with you to make a plan that best suits your needs. Open communication is an important part of my practice, and I always aim to foster a warm, empathetic environment where you feel safe and heard. Speaking of safety, this is an LGBTQIA+ friendly space and I work with people from all cultural backgrounds.
