Bach Psychology (hons)

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile page. My name is Alister, I am a registered psychologist and Board-Approved Supervisor with experience working with clients across the lifespan in settings including schools, the disability sector, forensic, and private practice. I bring positive regard for my clients and curiosity, helping my clients to feel comfortable while we work together to develop rich, meaningful lives and overcome challenges.

I have trained in numerous evidence-based therapies with the aim of being able to offer my clients an approach to therapy they find engaging, helpful, and focused on their own goals. Some of these approaches include:

  • Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)
  • Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT)
  • Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)
  • Narrative Therapy
  • Brief Solution-Focused Therapy
  • Positive Psychology
  • Psychoeducation

Pre-School and School-Aged Children

I have experience working with children including neurodivergent young people and recognise the many challenges faced by our young people on their journey to adulthood. Adolescence is a particular time of challenge with many mental health conditions developing between 14 & 18 years old. I work in areas which include:

  • Parenting strategies and behaviour support
  • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
  • Emotional regulation
  • Mood difficulties
  • Anxiety disorders
  • Grief and loss
  • Identity
  • Psychological skills for aspiring athletes

Adults

I enjoy working with adults of all ages and work from a position of belief in recovery and improvement, recognising that all clients can make positive changes with the right guidance and support. From brief solution-focused interventions to long-term monitoring and mental health support, I offer support with many areas including:

  • Resilience building
  • Low self-esteem
  • Psychological skills to thrive (not just survive!)
  • Stress management
  • Mood difficulties
  • Anxiety disorders
  • Addiction
  • Grief and loss
  • Parenting
  • Men’s coaching
  • Assertiveness and communication training

Summary

If you are seeking some additional support, looking to enhance your mental health and wellbeing, or interested in building resilience to be prepared for future challenges, please feel welcome to book an appointment.
