ABOUT ME

I’m Hannah Chen, a Registered Health Psychologist based in Brisbane. I am passionate about helping people take charge of their health for themselves and improve their well being through making healthy lifestyle choices. In particular I enjoy facilitating understanding of unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and working with people to change these patterns. I truly care about my patients’ well-being and am committed to providing evidence-based treatment that is tailored to each individual.
I have worked in a variety of public sector, community and private practice settings and predominantly work with adults. My approach is warm, holistic and strengths-based. I am experienced in working with a wide variety of common psychological issues including depression, anxiety, work and relationship difficulties, and stress management. My particular interests lie in working with:
Grief and loss/bereavement
Coping with life transitions
Adjustment to injury, diagnosis, illness and coping
Chronic disease management
Self-esteem issues and social anxiety
Weight management
Pain management
Addictions
If you would like any further information please do not hesitate to get in touch. I would be privileged to work with you.
