Ms Sharyn Renshaw
Psychologist
“Experienced in supporting individuals with PTSD, including Emergency Service Personnel, complex trauma from childhood abuse, neglect or violence, attachment issues, interpersonal difficulties, personality disorders, anxiety, depression, and compulsions.”
About Me
I offer a supportive space for individuals navigating challenging experiences. This includes PTSD, particularly for Emergency Service Personnel, and complex trauma from childhood. We can gently explore deep-seated difficulties like attachment issues, interpersonal struggles, and personality disorders. If you're experiencing anxiety, depression, or compulsions, we will work together. My aim is to help you make sense of overwhelming feelings, developing practical ways towards greater stability. This approach suits those seeking a grounded, understanding professional.
Approach
When overwhelming memories or persistent patterns turn up, I work alongside you to pace exploration with clear, practical steps that feel manageable. Sessions in Sydney or via secure online video, conducted in English, move at a steady, collaborative rhythm—part reflection, part skills practice—with space to pause when needed. I combine acceptance-focused exercises, mindfulness and careful attention to relational patterns so you can notice triggers, try new responses and strengthen coping between appointments. This way of working suits adults seeking a grounded, steady path toward greater day-to-day stability.
