Psychologist Surry Hills

The therapy room is a safe and non-judgmental space for us to explore the best way to work on building a life you want to live. I am a psychologist in Surry Hills, and I use evidence-based approaches to help children (aged eight and up), adolescents and adults with their mental health challenges. You will learn about how your early experiences influence the way you think, feel, behave and connect with others. We will work collaboratively to choose the treatment plan best suited for your therapeutic goals and to learn skills to help you navigate life’s challenges.

Chain Analysis in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Chain Analysis in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Chain Analysis is a core technique in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), crucial for understanding and modifying problematic behaviours. It involves a meticulous breakdown of a behaviour's contributing factors, starting from a triggering event, through the resulting thoughts, emotions, and actions, to the consequences of the behaviour. This process helps in identifying both the immediate and underlying factors that lead to maladaptive behaviours. By dissecting these behaviours, DBT therapists work with patients to increase self-awareness, identify intervention points, and develop effective coping strategies. Chain analysis not only aids in behavioural understanding but also enhances the application of DBT skills tailored to individual needs, making it an integral part of the therapy's success in treating disorders like Borderline Personality Disorder and other mental health issues.
