Dr Sangeetha Makielan
Psychiatrist
“A highly qualified and experienced therapist providing Psychotherapy (individual, parent-child, adult), Attachment-Based Family Therapy (ABFT), Psychodynamic psychotherapy etc.”
About Me
This experienced psychiatrist offers a supportive space for individuals, parents, and children to explore their emotional worlds. Using approaches like Attachment Based Family Therapy, they help to strengthen family bonds and understand relational patterns. This therapist is particularly well-suited for those navigating complex family dynamics. Clients find a thoughtful, grounded approach to fostering connection and personal growth.
Approach
Therapy here unfolds as steady, curiosity-led work that connects emotional experience to everyday interactions. Sessions are offered in Sydney and via secure telehealth, paced to each adolescent, parent or couple’s rhythm. I combine focused assessment with reflective, psychodynamic listening and practical between-session tasks to strengthen attachment, manage intense symptoms and build reliable coping. People navigating family tensions, parenting challenges or obsessive distress often find this clear, compassionate approach helpful.
