Clinical Psychologist
“20 years of working in private practice as a counselling and clinical psychologist in Australia. Offering telehealth sessions. See https://www.drkarlajohnston.com”
About Me
I bring two decades of experience as a clinical and Counseling psychologist, offering a steady, supportive space. My work in private practice has involved helping individuals across Australia navigate life's challenges. For your convenience, I provide all sessions via telehealth, making professional support accessible wherever you are. Clients often value the grounded, collaborative approach I bring to our work together.
Approach
That steadiness shapes how I organise our work: clear sessions with measured pacing and space to slow down when needed. From my Nundah base I offer telehealth across Australia in English, which helps keep continuity, regular check-ins and brief between-session tasks that fit your life. When trauma or diagnostic questions arise I combine careful assessment with safety-focused pacing, practical skills and collaborative formulation so you can track change. This way of working often suits adults wanting steady, evidence-informed support for difficult experiences.
