About Alexandra Zorbas-Maiden

I'm Alexandra Zorbas-Maiden, a registered psychologist with a passion for helping individuals reach their full potential and live fulfilling lives. My approach to therapy is collaborative, client-centered, and evidence-based, drawing on various methods like cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness, and psychodynamic principles. I believe in the power of creating a safe and supportive therapeutic environment where open communication and exploration can foster genuine growth.

My Background and Expertise

My journey in psychology started with a degree from the University of New South Wales, followed by a Master's degree from the City College of New York. My further studies at the College of Professional Psychology equipped me with the necessary skills and knowledge to become a fully registered psychologist in Australia. My career has been enriched by experiences working in both non-government and not-for-profit sectors, where I developed and facilitated various therapeutic programs for diverse populations with diverse needs.

Supporting Your Journey

I work with individuals struggling with a wide range of challenges, including:

• Anxiety and depression: Managing worry, fear, and low mood
• Trauma and dissociation: Processing past experiences and overcoming their effects
• Relationship issues: Improving communication and fostering healthy connections
• Depression and personality disorders: Deepening self-understanding and developing coping skills
• Substance use: Addressing addiction and its underlying factors
• Grief and loss: Healing from significant life events
• Identity and self-esteem: Building confidence and finding purpose

An Inclusive Approach

I believe in an inclusive approach to therapy that respects individual differences and fosters a sense of belonging. My practice welcomes people from all walks of life, regardless of their background, culture, sexual orientation, or gender identity.

Empowering Growth

My ultimate goal is to empower you to take charge of your life and achieve lasting change. Together, we can:

• Identify the root causes of your struggles
• Develop coping mechanisms and strategies
• Build resilience and self-compassion
• Develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships
