Ms Christina Damicoucas is a clinical psychologist and psychologist based in Heidelberg VIC. You can find the practice at 91 Darebin Street, Heidelberg VIC 3084.
Christina works with people who want practical support for day-to-day mental health and wellbeing. Sessions are suited to individuals who may be dealing with stress, worry, feeling down, or getting stuck in patterns that are hard to shift. At times, she also helps people who are going through tough life changes and want clearer coping skills.
She offers individual therapy sessions, as well as couples counselling for relationship problems. This can include communication issues, feeling disconnected, conflict that keeps repeating, or wanting a better way to handle disagreements. Family therapy is also available, which can be useful when family routines, roles, and emotions are starting to feel overwhelming.
Christina’s approach includes behavioural therapy and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT). In plain terms, CBT tends to look closely at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours link together. Sessions usually focus on understanding what is going on, then working step-by-step on strategies that fit your life. The goal is not just to talk about things, but to build tools you can use between appointments too.
In her day-to-day practice, she aims to keep therapy grounded and easy to follow. Some weeks might feel more like sorting things out, while others might feel more like practising new ways to respond. People come to therapy for different reasons, so the pace can be tailored to what you need.
Christina has training in both clinical psychology and psychology, and she brings that clinical foundation into the way she works. There aren’t any public details listed here about research projects or clinical trials, but her sessions focus on evidence-based talking therapy and real-world change.
