Clinical Psychologist
I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years of experience in clinical practice across university clinics, private practice, and hospital settings. I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology in Perth, Australia, and later obtained my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM).
My clinical work spans both adult and child mental health. I provide psychological assessment, diagnosis, and therapy for conditions such as depression, anxiety, stress-related difficulties, and adjustment issues. I also conduct neurodevelopmental and educational assessments for children, including the evaluation of developmental, behavioural, and learning concerns, followed by appropriate therapeutic intervention.
In addition to clinical practice, I have experience in program development and service leadership. I previously co-founded and developed a private psychology practice where I established and led the Early Intervention Program (WeShine), building the program from the ground up to provide assessment and intervention services for young children with developmental needs.
My therapeutic approach is eclectic and tailored to each individual’s needs and circumstances. I draw primarily from Client-Centered and humanistic approaches, while integrating elements from existential and relational therapy, Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT), Reality Therapy, supportive therapy, Emotionally Focused approaches, Compassion-Focused therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I also place strong emphasis on culturally sensitive and multicultural perspectives in therapy.
When appropriate, I incorporate clients’ spiritual or personal belief systems into the therapeutic process. I have experience working with individuals from diverse religious and philosophical backgrounds, including Muslim, Christian, and non-religious clients, ensuring that therapy remains respectful of each person’s values and worldview.
