Dr. Barbara Haddon

Barbara is an experienced, warm, supportive and down-to-earth Psychologist with close to thirty years of experience in the field. Barbara holds Bachelor of Arts and Honours degrees in Psychology and a Doctorate in Organisational Psychology and is recognised by the Psychology Board of Australia and Medicare.

 

Barbara takes a compassionate, practical, evidence-based,  client-centred and solution-focused approach in her practice, focusing on facilitating adult clients' personal and professional development.

 

As an integrative Psychologist, Barbara draws on Cognitive Behavioural and Acceptance and Commitment therapy frameworks, including mindfulness-based strategies and Focused Acceptance and Commitment therapy where brief intervention is appropriate.
