Mona Ghafourian (she/her)

Clinical Psychologist

BPsych (Hons), MPsychol (Clin)

Mona is a compassionate and dedicated psychologist who enjoys working with both children and adults. She relishes the opportunity of working with people from all walks of life and is passionate about helping every person live life to their full potential. She has particular expertise in working with people who have a complex response to trauma, or have mood disorders.

“To live a full and meaningful life, mental health is just as important as physical health, but we often fail to realize it. As psychologists, we have been trained to work with people who have all kinds of different issues, to help them regain their balance and to move towards living a mentally healthier life. And this can make all the difference.”
