Bronwyn Andersen
Psychologist, Generally-Registered Psychologist
As a registered psychologist specializing in ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) for children, adolescents, and young adults, I am committed to providing highly specialized, engaging, and effective therapy. My practice is uniquely tailored to the needs of young individuals with ADHD and/or ASD, focusing on creating a supportive and dynamic environment that fosters strengths and individuality.
I am deeply understanding of the varied challenges faced by neurodiverse young people. I recognize that neurodiversity can significantly affect daily life, including academic performance, social interactions, self-esteem, and overall well-being. This is particularly true for those who may have experienced late diagnoses or misdiagnoses, often leading to additional challenges.

Rashneel Prasad
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA, PACFA
Life's journey is marked by various transitions, and I'm here to provide dedicated support every step of the way. Whether you're navigating career shifts, adapting to new cultures, facing relationship changes, or coping with loss, I'm committed to partnering with you to tackle challenges with confidence and hope. As a registered counsellor, I prioritise your unique needs, whilst offering a nurturing space for self-exploration, healing, and personal growth.
I have an extensive background in corporate life, so I intimately understand the unique challenges faced by professional women, especially women of colour, and the intricate interplay of work/home-related issues. Having navigated the corporate world myself, I bring a deep understanding of the complexities and pressures inherent in these environments; such as: work/life balance, stress management, burnout and balancing multiple priorities. I’m also interested in assisting professionals who might be struggling in the pursuit of their careers while managing chronic medical conditions.

Rhiannon Derrig - Sexuality And Relationships (Sentient)
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist, PACFA; Psychosexual Therapist
As a registered psychosexual therapist, I specialise in helping individuals with trauma and PTSD, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, and sexual difficulties, including intimacy and trust. I am also passionate about providing support for navigating gendered, sexual, racial, and neuro diversity, and cultural identities, who may experience discrimination or internalised stigma.
Centering unconditional positive regard, I work closely with the client to deeply explore how their past experiences, current situations, family background, and social elements of their lives have impacted their wellbeing. I then work together with the client to explore how they navigate life within their social and environmental surroundings, as well as how to establish an environment and support system that is conducive to growth and healthy self-esteem.
As a therapist, I deeply value sex positivity, social justice and removing the stigma and social constraints surrounding mental health work. I also aim to move away from binary and the pathologisation of queerness and neurodiversity, and provide dedicated support for people who feel they fall outside of the margins of the dominant societal group.
Peer support towards queerness and neurodiversity is an important therapeutic element that I provide - living actively in the queer community and with neurodiversity myself, I am able to genuinely connect with others who may identify with similar experiences.

Rana Salloum - Relationships & Diversity (Sentient)
Counsellor/Therapist, Counsellor, MA, ACA-L3
I have 14 years of experience working with multicultural populations, in different countries such as the USA and Lebanon. I offer therapy in both English and Arabic. I can also hold a conversation in French. I support at-risk youth, displaced families, and those facing relationship problems. I work with mood disorders and different types of trauma, created by bullying and domestic violence. I offer a client-centred and multicultural approach in therapy. I emphasise accepting the uniqueness of each individual while also working with the intricate impact of culture on self- awareness, development and overall well-being.
In addition to the wide range of therapeutic techniques I use, I offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I am also an animal lover and believe in integrating animals into therapy, when appropriate, as this type of therapy can provide soothing, healing and comfort for individual clients.
I view the process of counselling as a delicate and enriching experience, both for my clients as well as for myself as a counsellor.
