New Clinical Psychologist - Welcome Dr. Louise Turner
Parkes Street General Practice would like to warmly welcome Dr. Louise Turner (Clinical Psychologist) to our team!
Louise has worked collaboratively with adults and older adolescents experiencing psychological difficulties across a variety of public health, community, and private practice settings. She is trained to assess and treat a broad range of psychological disorders and issues, whether they are experienced as short-term difficulties or more enduring problems.
Louise believes in tailoring treatment to a person’s individual needs and draws upon a number of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Schema Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to help people explore and manage the issues they bring to therapy.
For individuals experiencing more chronic and complex psychological problems, such as personality vulnerabilities and trauma, she works primarily within a psychodynamic framework which is informed by attachment theory.
Louise has completed eight years of university and practical training to attain registration as a Clinical Psychologist. She holds full registration with the Allied Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and has completed a Doctor of Philosophy in Clinical Psychology at the University of Wollongong. Louise is passionate about working with older adults who might be struggling with various challenges associated with their own ageing and health, and who wish to enhance their mental health functioning and wellbeing.
Please contact our friendly reception team to make an appointment with Dr Louise Turner.
