Rachel Braithwaite
Clinical Psychologist in Highett
I’m Rachel — a clinical psychologist working in both private practice and at a fertility clinic. I have years of experience supporting people through emotionally complex and deeply personal challenges.
I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where you can feel safe, supported, and understood. My approach is grounded in empathy and emotional attunement, and I tailor therapy to meet you where you’re at — whether you're facing ongoing challenges, feeling stuck, or simply wanting to better understand yourself.
I’m particularly passionate about helping people explore and work through the deeper emotional patterns that might be holding them back. While my work is primarily informed by Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP), I also draw on other evidence-based approaches depending on your needs, including CBT, emotion regulation, mindfulness, and relational therapies.

Suffering is optional.”
