Jacky Ho Yin Wan - Multilingual Psychologist
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist AHPRA-registered
I am passionate about providing caring and compassionate psychological support that is tailored to clients with various mental health issues.
My expertise covers a broad range of presentations. These include adjustment difficulties to life transitions and work stress, anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, personality disorders, self-esteem issues, and loss and grief.
I am particularly interested in how some of these issues might impact individuals in the workplace, and I offer support in relation to this.
I have a rich background in conducting clinical, diagnostic and neuropsychological assessments and delivering personalised psychological interventions. My research specialties also include addressing sleep problems and psychotic spectrum disorders.
I work with a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches including Schema Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, CBT, and DBT. With this range of approaches to draw from, I will tailor a treatment plan to suit my clients' specific needs to give them the best outcomes possible.
I hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology and have over a decade of experience in senior and supervisory roles. Having practiced in Hong Kong and Australia, I deliver therapy in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.

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.

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.
