Rosemary Tainsh
Rosemary is a warm, gentle and compassionate Psychologist who believes that meaningful change begins with feeling heard, understood and supported. She strives to create a safe and collaborative space where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts, emotions and experiences, while working together towards greater understanding, resilience and lasting change.
Every person brings a unique story, which is why Rosemary takes an individualised approach to psychological support. Rather than following a one size fits all approach, she tailors sessions to each person's individual needs, drawing on a range of evidence based approaches to support clients in a way that feels right for them.
Rosemary enjoys working with children, adolescents and adults across a broad range of emotional and mental health concerns, with particular interests in anxiety, depression, perinatal mental health and neurodivergence. In addition to providing psychological support, Rosemary also has extensive experience conducting Autism, ADHD, cognitive and educational assessments for children, adolescents and adults.
One of the aspects Rosemary values most about her work is building genuine therapeutic relationships and supporting people through some of life's most challenging seasons. Alongside developing practical strategies, she believes that lasting change comes from taking the time to better understand ourselves, our thoughts, emotions, relationships and life experiences. Her hope is that clients leave sessions feeling more equipped to navigate life's challenges, while developing greater confidence, self awareness and self compassion.
Rosemary's work is informed by a range of evidence based approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Schema Therapy, EMDR, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, Interpersonal Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Play Therapy. Rather than being guided by a single therapeutic framework, she draws on these approaches flexibly to meet the unique needs of each individual.
Rosemary is a fully registered Psychologist with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and a member of Australian Association of Psychologists Inc. (AAPi).
