Ms Raeleen McKenzie

Psychologist

An experienced, competent and compassionate psychologist working with children and adults who have experienced trauma.

About Me

As Psychologist McKenzie, I bring experience, competence, and compassion to my work with individuals impacted by trauma. I support both children and adults, understanding how past experiences can shape present lives. My approach offers a safe, structured space where you can explore difficult emotions and build resilience. I aim to help you find a clear path towards healing, fostering stability for the future.

Approach

Sessions follow a steady, predictable rhythm that helps you feel contained while we gently explore what matters most. I invite practical, age‑sensitive tasks alongside reflective work so children and adults can make sense of past events and practise new responses between meetings. Assessment and pacing are collaborative — we check in often and adjust the focus to match your readiness, balancing safety with gradual growth. This approach suits people seeking clear structure and compassionate support as they rebuild stability.
