New Vision Psychology

New Vision Psychology is an inclusive private practice providing an extensive range of psychological services. Get in touch today 💚

We have more than 30 psychologists speaking 10+ languages across 5 clinics in Sydney. New Vision Psychology is a clinical private practice based in Sydney’s CBD, with clinics in Martin Place, Burwood, Chatswood and Hurstville. As one of Sydney’s most inclusive psychology practices, we provide a comprehensive range of services by 24 practitioners in 10 languages. Our team of mental health practitioners treat children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. We work collaboratively with our clients to provide the perfect fit for their specific needs. Established in 2009, Directors Danni Zhang and Johan Crouch were driven by their desire to make a difference in private practice. As seasoned practitioners in the industry, they noticed a few problems – some psychology practices were cold and impersonal, others were selective with who they chose to take on, and many had long and indefinite wait times. People trying to seek help often felt out of place, uncomfortable and weren’t treated equally. They found this unacceptable for an industry based on trust and human connection. This is when they set out to create a place that was inclusive, respectful and welcoming for everyone. New Vision Psychology opened its first practice in Chatswood and has been steadily evolving and expanding since. Our Hurstville clinic opened in 2015, followed by the city branch in 2019 and Burwood in 2021. We are a commissioned partner with the Sydney North Health Network, a Primary Health Network (PHN) established by the government. We are also an NDIS registered provider and our many of our psychologists are registered with the SIRA to provide services for Workcover. We are the official EAP partner of China Everbright Bank and also provide EAP services for organisations across Sydney. Languages:
English, Mandarin, Cantonese, Greek, Spanish, Italian, Maltese, Hebrew, Telugu and Shanghainese

Our clinical interventions include:
Counselling (child, adolescent, adult, relationship, family),assessment and diagnosis of mental health conditions, cognitive assessments, Autism treatment and diagnosis, creating treatment plans, collaborating with carers, court reports, migration & legal issues/reports, NDIS registered provider, EAP counselling, school visits, home visits and telehealth counselling.

Why do certain patterns keep repeating in your relationships? 💭

From a psychological perspective, many relationship dynamics are discussed through the lens of attachment styles. These are patterns of relating that can influence how people experience closeness, conflict, and emotional safety.

These are 4 commonly discussed attachment styles and how they may present. People can relate to aspects of more than one style, and experiences vary widely.

💛 Anxious attachment
Often associated with a strong need for reassurance and closeness.
Individuals may notice heightened sensitivity to perceived rejection, worry about abandonment, or frequently check for reassurance in relationships.

🧊 Avoidant attachment
Often associated with valuing independence and emotional distance.
Individuals may notice discomfort with vulnerability, pull away when things feel emotionally intense, or downplay their own needs.

🌪️ Disorganised attachment
Often associated with conflicting desires for closeness and distance.
Individuals may notice a push–pull pattern in relationships, difficulty trusting others, or feel overwhelmed by intimacy while also craving it.

🌱 Secure attachment
Often associated with comfort in both closeness and independence.
Individuals may notice an ability to express needs, manage conflict, and maintain emotional connection while respecting boundaries.

Attachment styles are not fixed labels, diagnoses, or identities. They are one way psychologists understand patterns that can shift over time, influenced by relationships, life experiences, and support.

More general information about attachment, relationships, and psychological services is available on our website 💚

Gaslighting can be subtle, and that’s what makes it so damaging.
It slowly chips away at your confidence, your memory, and your trust in yourself.

If you’re experiencing any of the following, you may be dealing with gaslighting:
💚 Constantly second-guessing your version of events
💚 Feeling like you’re “overreacting” even when you’re hurt
💚 Being blamed for things that aren’t your fault
💚 Hearing phrases like “you’re crazy,” “you imagined it,” or “I never said that”
💚 Feeling isolated from your support system
💚 Noticing growing anxiety, confusion, or loss of identity

Gaslighting is emotional manipulation, and it is never your fault.

Here’s what can help:
💚 Document events: journaling can help you trust your own memory again.
💚 Reach out to someone safe: isolation keeps gaslighting alive.
💚 Set boundaries: you’re allowed to trust your feelings.
💚 Seek professional support: a psychologist can help you rebuild confidence, break the cycle, and understand what’s happening with clarity.

You deserve relationships where you feel grounded, respected, and safe.

If you recognise yourself in this, our psychologists at New Vision Psychology are here to support you. Visit our website to book an appointment.

Trauma is often misunderstood as something that only comes from a single, extreme event.

In reality, trauma can develop in many different ways... Suddenly, slowly, early in life, or even through witnessing the pain of others.

Understanding the different types of trauma helps explain why people respond differently to stress, relationships, emotions, and everyday challenges.

Trauma is deeply personal. Two people can experience the same situation and be impacted in very different ways, shaped by their history, supports, and coping resources.

If unprocessed, trauma can affect mental health, relationships, physical wellbeing, and how safe the world feels. With the right therapeutic support, it can be processed, understood, and softened over time 💚

If this resonates with you, our psychologists are here to help you make sense of your experiences and support your healing. We are located across Burwood, Chatswood, Castle Hill Hurstville and in the Sydney CBD.

Peace comes when you realise that what’s out of your control doesn’t have to live in your mind.

So often, stress and anxiety come from trying to manage things we simply can’t change. While this is a very human response, carrying everything can quietly wear us down.

Letting go doesn’t mean you don’t care.
It means you’re choosing to protect your mental wellbeing.

💭 What this can look like in practice:

– Noticing when your thoughts are looping around the same worries

– Gently redirecting your attention to what is within your control

– Practising self-compassion when things feel overwhelming

– Allowing yourself to pause instead of pushing through

If letting go feels hard right now, that’s okay. Learning how to quiet the mind and build emotional resilience is something therapy can support.

Our psychologists are here to help you find steadiness and clarity again.

New Vision Psychology has 5 locations across Sydney and offers telehealth Australia-wide. You can book an appointment via the link in bio.

Your mindset shapes how you see yourself, others, and the world around you. When you start shifting your inner dialogue from self-criticism to self-compassion, from fear to curiosity - everything begins to change 💚

Changing your mindset isn’t about toxic positivity, it’s about recognising that you have the power to choose how you respond, even when you can’t control what happens around you.

Growth begins in the mind and the smallest shift can change your whole life.

Starting a mental health conversation can feel uncomfortable, but sometimes, it’s exactly what someone needs to feel seen, heard, and supported 💚

Here’s how to approach it mindfully:

🌿 Choose the right moment
Find a calm, private space where you both feel safe. Timing matters, they’ll open up when they feel ready.

💭 Ask open questions
Instead of “You’re okay, right?”, try “How have you been feeling lately?” Open questions invite honesty.

👂 Listen without trying to fix
You don’t need to have the perfect response. Just being present and listening with empathy goes a long way.

💚 Validate their experience
Simple phrases like “That sounds really hard” or “I’m here for you” can make a world of difference.

🌼 Encourage support
If they’re struggling, gently suggest professional help. Offer to help them find resources or book an appointment.

🌙 Check in again
A single conversation isn’t always enough. Follow up with a quick message - “I’ve been thinking of you.”
Consistency builds trust and shows you care.

💫 You don’t need to say the perfect thing, you just need to care. Every small act of compassion matters 🌿

If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available. Reach out to a psychologist at New Vision Psychology today 💚

We often find it easier to be kind to others, but how often do you extend that same kindness to yourself? 💚

Self-kindness is one of the most powerful tools for emotional health.
It helps regulate stress, calm the inner critic, and build resilience over time 🌿

Try this:
💭 When you catch a harsh thought, pause and ask:
“Would I say this to a friend?”
If not, take a breath, soften the tone, and try again.

Self-kindness isn’t about ignoring mistakes, it’s about recognising that growth and imperfection can coexist.

Be kind to your mind today and every day.

🤝 Rebuild her confidence and reconnect with others

This Movember, we’re shining a light on men’s mental health 🖤

Men are often taught to stay strong, stay silent, and “get on with it”. But bottling things up can take a real toll on mental and physical wellbeing.

Checking in with yourself doesn’t make you weak, it’s an act of strength. Whether it’s stress, burnout, low mood, or feeling disconnected, support is available and effective.

Start small:
💬 Talk to a friend or colleague
🧠 Book a mental health check-in
💚 Do one thing that grounds you

Real strength is self-awareness.
Real courage is reaching out.

Today is World Mental Health Day 💙

Stigma remains one of the biggest barriers to seeking support. While 1 in 5 Australians experience a mental illness each year, too many still suffer in silence because of fear, shame, or judgement.

Mental health stigma shows up in how we speak, what we assume, and how society responds to those struggling. And while it can feel overwhelming, each of us has a role in challenging it.

📌 Here's how to help:
• Use respectful, people-first language
• Learn the facts - mental illness is not a weakness
• Speak up when you hear myths or stereotypes
• Support others to seek help - without shame

💡 Reminder: mental health is just as important as physical health.
💛 Let's create a culture where everyone feels safe to ask for help.
