Danielle Collins

Registered Psychologist

Accepting new clients

Available Tuesdays and Thursdays

Hello, my name is Danielle. I am dedicated to creating safe and accessible
environments that empower individuals to enhance their understanding of
themselves and achieve a greater sense of wellbeing. I earned my Bachelor of
Psychological Sciences in 2021 and subsequently completed my Master of
Psychology (Counselling) in 2023.

I have a strong interest in working with diverse communities, including individuals
from various cultural backgrounds, neurodiverse individuals, and members of the LGBTQI+ community. I employ a person-centred, strengths-based, and trauma-informed approach in my practice. My primary objective is to collaborate with clients to foster self-awareness, acceptance, resilience, and to develop a personalised toolkit of skills.

I have experience in conducting psychological assessments to explore a variety of diagnoses, including ADHD, Autism, Learning Disorders, and more. I take an integrative approach drawing on a range of therapeutic modalities, including
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, and Compassion-
Focused Therapy. Additionally, I am a registered Triple P (Positive Parenting
Program) practitioner.

As a practitioner, I recognise that everyone’s capacity to engage in therapy may vary from session to session. I aim to meet clients where they are in their journey and encourage them to take an active role in their therapy. If you feel the need to
proceed at a slower pace or if a particular approach is not effective, I advocate for
you needs. I find joy in employing creative therapies to ensure you gain the most
from your therapeutic experience.

Outside of my professional work, I enjoy collecting hobbies (mostly creative outlets
like painting and embroidery) and have a passion for nature.

I look forward to supporting you on your journey.

Jasmin Singh

Psychologist & Board Approved Supervisor

I have over 12 years of experience as a psychologist and mentor. I’m an endorsed Counselling Psychologist and Board Approved Supervisor with AHPRA. I have contributed research in the area of interpersonal neurobiology where I evaluated the link between emotions, relationships and brain development in young people through drawing assessments.

I presented at the International Congress of Applied Psychology and have published work with the International Journal of Neuropsychotherapy. But that’s enough of my professional credentials, in case it’s not obvious, I am interested in all things to do with the brain and optimising the potential of our brain. I like the science of psychology. I have a special interest in working with individuals with performance orientated challenges such as motivation difficulties, perfectionism, and anxiety. But most importantly, I believe that anyone can benefit from psychological support and coaching. You don’t need to be ‘disordered’ to see a psychologist.

What you can expect when you work with me is that I consider the relationship between the mind, body and brain in my approach. I also strongly focus on the therapeutic relationship; you need to feel comfortable with your therapist in order to maximise your outcomes from the sessions.

I have a bit of first hand experience of what it is like to have to perform under pressure, from playing soccer throughout my childhood and adolescence, to preparing for university exams, to presenting in front of a large group, and currently keeping myself motivated to train for long distance running events. I believe that performing well under pressure is a skill that can be developed, and with the right psychological supports and coaching, an individual is capable of achieving their goals.

Another area of interest to me is diversity. Whether that is cultural, gender, sexual or neurodiversity. I believe we are all unique with our lived experience and that using a diversity lens to therapy is beneficial.

I am passionate about seeing others grow and enjoy providing training and supervision to provisional psychologists, supporting them on their journey to full registration as a psychologist. I can supervise 4+2 and 5+1 interns, masters placement students, and Counselling Psychologist registrars.
