ANNA HOWLETT

Hi, I’m Anna! I am a Forensic Psychologist working on the Gold Coast. I have a passion for people and supporting individuals to improve their mental health and overall well-being. I see my role is to create a safe, supportive environment where you feel valued, respected and heard. I provide a non-judgemental, understanding space to help you feel at ease discussing your difficulties.  

As your therapist, I seek to understand what is happening from your perspective and look for opportunities to share practical tools and strategies that you can draw upon now and in the future to overcome obstacles, build psychological resilience and thrive in your life.

I understand that one size does not fit all, and as such, I do not have one single approach that I draw upon when working with you. Rather, I draw on a range of different theories, models and practice approaches to be able to adapt to your needs. The most common approaches that I integrate into therapy are; strengths based, person-centred, cognitive behaviour therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and dialectical behavioural therapy skills training.

I work towards developing a shared understanding of your difficulties, which allows me to tailor a treatment plan to suit your individual needs. More importantly, I help you to connect with your own expertise and knowledge of what works best for you.
