Meet Carrie Reynolds

Carrie is a Registered Psychologist and Clinical Psychology Registrar. She works with clients aged 7+ years, adolescents and adults. She has experience supporting clients of all ages through concerns ranging from Emotional Disorders (including Anxiety, Depression and Emotional Regulation difficulties), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Grief and Loss, Chronic Health Conditions and Neurodivergence-related concerns.

Carrie believes all people can thrive when they are supported to recognise and build on their strengths, increasing awareness, understanding and acceptance of their individual differences, developing resilience to face challenges and to pursue meaningful lives in sustainable ways. Carrie recognises that human experience always occurs within a context of an individual’s own biology, their personality, thought processes and beliefs, the wider social environment around them, and their historical experiences. She takes a holistic perspective that explores, acknowledges and incorporates the wider context of people’s lives.
