Dr Kathleen McLaren   MAPS

Medicare Psychologist Provider

Telehealth available

Dr Kathleen has Bachelors, Honours and Masters degrees in Psychology, and a PhD in Medicine. Dr Kathleen is a warm, compassionate and empathetic therapist, who believes that being truly heard and acknowledged is critical to the therapeutic process. While she has three degrees in Psychology, many years of research into the effect of childhood trauma, and knowledge of and experience in multiple therapies, strategies and techniques, she believes that validation of the patients' lived experience is where healing starts. Dr Kathleen is experienced in treating all manner of difficulties (with a special interest in anxiety, relationship counselling, OCD and Borderline Personality Disorder), but what is really important is finding out what is getting in the way of the patient living the life THEY want to lead. Dr Kathleen will work with the patient to identify the issues and make those changes to get the person living the story of their life in the way they�d like it to be written.
