Dr Laura Lyons-Blood
DClinPsy BSc (Hons)
Clinical Psychologist (provisionally registered)
Works with adults (18+)
Laura is an extremely experienced UK-trained Clinical Psychologist who has just arrived in Fremantle and is currently completing the mandatory 12-week transitional program with AHPRA to attain her equivalent registration in Australia.
Laura completed her doctoral training in England and Scotland where, in addition to her extensive clinical work, she also taught and mentored clinical psychology trainees in evidence-based assessment and intervention.
Laura has worked with children and adults across the lifespan struggling with mental health difficulties such as anxiety, depression and complex trauma. Laura also has extensive experience supporting neuro-diverse populations.
Laura specialises in trauma-informed therapy helping her clients to make sense of their experiences and build safety, stability, and resilience. She uses evidence-based approaches in her work, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and tailors therapy to each person’s unique needs and developmental stage.
She places strong value on creating a warm, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic relationship, and works alongside clients to develop practical strategies, strengthen emotional understanding, and support meaningful change.
While Laura completes her brief transitional program she will be working under the title of Provisional Psychologist but will be providing clinical psychological support to her clients. During this time, clients attending privately or under a Mental Health Care Plan will only be charged the gap payment, not her full fee.
Laura runs her own independent private practice and engages Fremantle Clinical Psychology and Counselling to provide administrative and other business services to enable her to provide psychological support to her clients.
