Clinical Psychologist, Health Psychologist
Sue Conaghty
Sue is an AHPRA-endorsed clinical and health psychologist who is passionate about providing you with holistic and collaborative care through your unique pregnancy, birthing and parenting experience. Having worked in hospital and rehab settings, Sue supports clients experiencing mental health concerns alongside physical health challenges, recognising the important interplay between mind and body during this transformative time. As part of the wholistic approach, Sue has a particular interest in supporting the partners, support people and carers who might be finding these times challenging in their own way.
Sue’s therapeutic style is influenced by her previous career as a vet, her country upbringing, and being a mum. Her approach balances positive energy with peacefulness, challenge with safety, and education with compassion. She supports your recovery, builds your confidence, and helps you reconnect with the person you are while navigating the challenges of parenting.
