As long as Sharita can recall she has wanted to help people going through difficult times to find comfort and strength to carry on. Sharita believes that as a psychologist, she can assist her clients in their journey of recovery and personal growth by talking about their presenting symptoms, as well as underlying issues, as this helps to formulate a good treatment plan. She uses a strengths-based and person-centred approach to empower her clients to make informed decisions about different aspects of their lives.
Sharita finds it heart-warming to see her clients make progress in their lives and willing to take further steps to improve their mental health and overall quality of life. Her special interests include Depression and Anxiety, Trauma and Attachment, Grief and Loss. Sharita also has an interest in working with people with hoarding issues and has worked closely with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, culturally and diverse population groups in the disability and mental health sector.
