Applied Psychology

I am an experienced registered psychologist on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. My approach is simple: I take a strengths based and client centred approach.

Based in Peregian Springs and Maroochydore, I am passionate about supporting people that have a range of problems. It is extremely rewarding and a privilege to be a part of your journey and assisting you to manage the ups and downs. I believe within everyone there are skills and knowledge that can be utilised to make improvements and with insight and motivation, have the capacity to learn new skills and strategies. This means I'm more focused on positive things in your life and looking for practical solutions rather than focusing on a diagnosis or deficits. I undertake my work with compassion and without judgement and I'm very outcome focused.

What is self-compassion?
- Quite simply, it is treating yourself like you would treat someone else that was going through a hard time.
- It is accepting that you are human,not perfect, and that it is OK to make mistakes (practice saying that).
- It means not to dwell on mistakes or beat yourself up.
- Self-compassion also suggests that there is a difference between making a bad choice and being a bad person.
- Research shows that people that practice self-compassion have lower levels of depression and anxiety.
If you're struggling, get in touch so we can work on some strategies to help you cope and live a more rich, fulfilling and meaningful life.

Struggling with negative thoughts? Well, they're common, I'd even go as far as saying they're normal. They're just not helpful! Negative thoughts are the main drivers that affect depression, anxiety, self confidence and self esteem.

So, here's a brief strategy:

- Be aware of them. Actually listen to them.
- Ask yourself, do I have evidence to support this thought?
- If the answer is NO, say "there is no evidence to support this thought" and move on.
- If the answer is YES, reframe the thought "I can't do this" v's I'll give it a go and see what happens". Or problem solve.
- Practice self-compassion. Be kind to yourself. No one is perfect.
- Change your behaviour. Do something that is good for you, such as going for a walk or talk to someone or do something kind for someone.
- Get some support. Through a deeper understanding as to where and why negative thoughts originate, there are many strategies that can help. Send us a message to arrange an appointment or visit appliedpsychology.com.au
