Registered Psychologist

“Bita works with people suffering from a wide range of difficulties including relationship issues, intimacy and interpersonal difficulties, addictions, identity problems, attention issues, obsessive compulsive issues, emotional regulation, anxiety, depression and trauma.”

About Me

Bita, a Registered Psychologist, supports individuals navigating a wide spectrum of emotional and relational challenges. She helps clients explore difficulties like anxiety, depression, or trauma. Bita also addresses relationship issues, identity concerns, and attention or obsessive compulsive patterns. She offers a calm, collaborative space to unpack complex feelings. This approach is ideal for those seeking clarity and practical ways to manage their well-being.

Approach

Sessions often begin by mapping what feels most urgent and naming small, manageable steps toward clearer thinking and steadier relationships. In my Melbourne consulting room, in English or Farsi, we move between focused assessment, reflective exploration and practical skills—sometimes experimenting with brief between-session tasks to try different responses. I balance careful exploration of history with present-moment strategies for attention, emotion regulation and relationship habits, adjusting pace to your needs. This way of working tends to suit people seeking steady, practical progress while holding complexity.
