Alicia Jane Psychology in Toowoomba, Queensland

About Alicia

Hi, I’m Alicia - a Registered Psychologist and Clinical Psychology Registrar in Toowoomba, dedicated to creating a warm, safe, and supportive space where you feel comfortable to explore your experiences, reflect openly, and create meaningful change.

I take a client-centred, trauma-informed approach to therapy that is grounded in evidence-based practice. I believe that therapy should feel collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique experiences and goals. My aim is to support you in navigating life’s challenges, building resilience, and working towards a life that feels aligned with what matters most to you.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, adults, and families across a variety of settings including community mental health services, non-government organisations, eating disorder services, hospitals (both inpatient and outpatient), research programs, and private practice.

I have experience supporting individuals across a range of presentations, including anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, post-traumatic stress, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), and eating disorders.

I see therapy as a collaborative process, and together we will work towards understanding your experiences, building on your strengths, and achieving your therapeutic goals in a way that feels meaningful and sustainable for you.
