Thoughtful psychological care for complex lives and diverse mental health needs in Perth
I work with adolescents and adults experiencing a wide range of mental health, emotional and interpersonal difficulties. These concerns rarely occur in isolation, so therapy considers the broader patterns, experiences and circumstances that may be contributing to distress.
What therapy can
look like
Starting therapy can feel daunting, especially if you have never done it before or are unsure whether it will help. At its core, psychological therapy provides a space to slow down, better understand what is happening, and explore the thoughts, emotions, behaviours and experiences that may be contributing to your difficulties—without judgement.
Some people begin therapy with a clear goal, while others simply know that something does not feel right. Both are valid starting points. Together, we can clarify what you are experiencing, identify meaningful goals, and develop an approach to treatment that is evidence-based, individualised and paced in a way that feels manageable for you.
Support in Perth,
in person or online
Perera Psychology is based in Thornlie, in Perth's southern suburbs, offering individual therapy for adults and adolescents. If you'd rather not travel, sessions are also available online, through Telehealth, so you can meet from wherever feels comfortable.
Being in Thornlie means I'm easily reached from across Perth's south, including nearby Canning Vale, Gosnells, Maddington and Southern River. Online sessions means distance is never a barrier to getting the right support, whether you're in the metro area or further out.

My values
The way I work is shaped by a few simple things I care about. This is how you'll be treated here.
I work with people across a wide range of challenges and presentations, including those that are layered or difficult to make sense of. I welcome complexity and approach each person’s experience with curiosity, care and understanding.
Everything is always explained clearly, so you're never confused about how things work. This is reflected in everything I do including transparent pricing and my process.
There will always be a space for you here that is unhurried, judgement-free and grounded in real support from one person to another.
This means meeting you where you are and moving at a speed that feels right for you, without any pressure or timelines.
