Dr Fiona Hedderwick

Please expect significant wait times for new client appointments

I am a clinical psychologist with over 12 years of experience working with adults who wish to improve their mood, anxiety, relationships, communication style, and self-worth. I really enjoy helping people to develop a deeper understanding of themselves. When we understand ourselves more deeply, we tend to be more compassionate, have a clearer sense of our values, and we can feel more fulfilled in our lives.

I have a gentle, nurturing, and sometimes playful style, but I will also challenge my clients and provide direction where needed. I like to work collaboratively with my clients, drawing on tools and concepts from therapeutic approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, schema therapy, EMDR, and dialectical behaviour therapy.

I have experience working in acute mental health settings, with individuals and with groups, with organisations, and with clients accessing support through the workers’ compensation system. I have authored several published articles relating to clinical psychology assessment, and I am a Board Approved Supervisor. I enjoy providing clinical support to our team here at Headway.
