Feeling stuck?

You don’t have to have a mental illness to want to work on your mental health

I work with people who want something to change.

Evidence-based, trauma-informed, a down to earth attitude and a touch of humour.

Curious? Get in touch

Hi, I’m Caitlyn

(she/her)

I'm a Clinical Psychologist and Supervisor, who actually loves her work! I feel incredibly privileged to spend my days listening to people's stories, learning from them, and helping them navigate life's challenges.

Purpose

I appreciate how frustrating it can be to feel stuck. My aim is to help you build the understanding, skills and confidence to navigate whatever life throws at you, both during therapy and well beyond it.

Presence

For those interested, I also work alongside a cheeky mini-groodle named Hugo who, although having graduated his therapy dog training, is really just a big sucker for pats and naps in a cosy therapy room.

Playfulness

I take a warm, collaborative approach to therapy and have found that humour and a down-to-earth attitude can help create the safety and trust that meaningful and effective therapy is built on.

Philosophy

The
process

Whether it’s reaching out for the first time, or reaching out again when previous support hasn’t been what you’d hoped for, taking the plunge can be a little scary. Here’s a little step by step to help simplify the process.

1

Reach out

Initiate contact with me in a way that feels good for you.

You can either submit an enquiry via our Contact page or send me an email: caitlynmackenziepsychology@gmail.com

2

I'll be in touch

I will send you an email with some initial information and we can then either continue to arrange next steps via email, or you can book a free 10-15 minute discovery call.

When in contact, I will try to answer any questions you might have, and if suitable, arrange a first appointment with you.

3

Complete an intake form

The nitty gritty details in the form of a Professional Agreement will be emailed to you.

This long, boring form is required for us to legally and ethically work together.

It includes information about services, fees, privacy and most importantly consent.

If there's anything in the form you wish to discuss before signing, simply reach out. No question is too silly!

4

Attend your appointment

A first appointment is a bit of a 'get to know you'.

I'll want to know more about what brings you to therapy and you might want to know a bit about what it's like to work with me.

No obligations.

Should you decide you want to continue working together, we can create a plan for what that might look like.

And if you're not sure, that's also okay. Take your time to consider your next move and simply let me know what you've decided - even if that means deciding to seek alternative support options!
