Meet Ashlee Raymond                  - Psychologist

I grew up in the suburbs of Adelaide, which is where I completed my studies and established my psychological career. In the city, I worked in leading psychology and inter-disciplinary clinics, and developed a special interest in treating trauma, as well as working in brain injury and concussion rehabilitation. I would describe myself as empathic, creative and genuine in my work with clients.

 

More than 3 years ago, I left the city, in favour of country life. I took a break from full-time psychology and went on a huge adventure, working in the shearing sheds of outback Australia. My experiences in the sheds have changed my perspective on life, work and balance - Which is my aim now, to create a balance between my old and new lives. I hope to use my skills as a psychologist to support people in chronically under-serviced areas or with specialised support needs, while also setting aside time to get out in the sheds and throw a few fleeces. 

​

My eclectic life experiences, from the air conditioned offices of Adelaide, to wool handling and shearing sheep in the vast red dirt country of SA and beyond, gives me a unique ability to connect with individuals from many walks of life.

I find it beneficial working through a Schema Therapy lens with most clients. I also compliment this by employing strategies from Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Mindfulness based approaches. 

​

I work with adult clients presenting with a range of concerns, including:

  • Anxiety

  • Depression

  • Trauma

  • PTSD

  • Neurological conditions (e.g., Brain Injury, Stroke, Persistent Concussion, Functional Neurological Disorder)

  • Grief and loss

  • General need for mental health support

​

I am also a board approved supervisor and available to supervise other psychologists.
