Mr Tristan Abba

Clinical Psychologist

An experienced, competent and compassionate therapist to support you through mental health concerns.

About Me

I help individuals and families navigate mental health concerns gently. As an experienced psychologist, I create a supportive, non-judgmental space for your unique challenges. My love for learning guides my multifaceted approach to conversations. My focus is understanding your experiences and fostering well-being for all. Clients appreciate my calm guidance, finding it helpful in building stronger connections and individual coping.

Approach

Rooted in experience and compassion, therapy moves at a steady, practical pace that honours your rhythm. I offer in-person appointments in Hillarys and secure online sessions across Western Australia, keeping our time calm, focused and reliably paced. We set manageable goals, track patterns that fuel anxiety, mood shifts or addictive behaviours, practise skills in-session and apply small, practical tasks between appointments to build resilience and improve family interactions. This approach tends to suit adolescents, young adults and adults looking for clear, collaborative support.
