Rana is a clinical psychologist with over 20 years experience providing psychological therapy for those most in need. She has worked successfully with a range of presentations, including some of the most complex areas, such as severe mental illness, older Australians, postnatal depression and complex trauma.
She also has extensive experience with more frequently occurring psychological difficulties, such as anxiety, depression and issues with stress or adjustment to difficult life events.
Over the past decade she has also added couples therapy to her repertoire – and is now extensively trained and experienced in Emotionally Focussed Therapy (EFT). She also has experience in transgender health and sexual diversity and works hard to ensure that her therapy is a welcoming space for all to feel safe.
Rana provides Emotionally Focused Therapy for all kinds of relationships- including all types of intimate relationships. She can support repair of relational injuries, relationship reconnection, relationship enhancement, and sexual connection.
Rana works with individual adults requiring treatment for a range of presenting issues including depression, anxiety, relational distress, trauma, and grief & loss. She does not provide cognitive or neuropsychological assessment services.
Rana’s primary treatment modalities are Emotionally Focussed Therapy for Couples (EFT-C), Emotionally Focussed Individual Therapy (EFiT) and Sensorimotor Therapy for developmental and attachment trauma. She also draws on experience and expertise from a number of other modalities including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Schema Therapy, and neurobiological approaches to trauma.
