Ms Sijal Ansari is a Clinical Psychologist and Psychologist based in Penrith, NSW. You can find the practice at 19 The Crescent, Penrith NSW 2750. She offers therapy in English, with sessions also available in Hindi and Urdu.
Ms Sijal works with adults and couples, and she also supports families when things feel stuck or stressful. In many cases people come in because they’re dealing with everyday pressure that’s starting to feel bigger than it should. At times that can look like anxiety, low mood, feeling overwhelmed, trouble sleeping, or just not coping the way you want to.
She also helps with relationship concerns. Couples counselling can cover communication problems, trust issues, conflict that keeps repeating, and the strain that builds when one person feels heard and the other doesn’t. Family therapy is useful when family dynamics are affecting everyone’s wellbeing, especially when routines, parenting stress, or disagreements are getting harder to manage.
Sessions are practical and focused on what you want to change. Ms Sijal runs individual therapy, couples counselling, and family therapy, and she commonly uses behavioural strategies and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT). CBT can be a helpful way to understand the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It’s not about quick fixes. It’s more about learning tools you can use in real life, at home and at work.
Her experience is built through day-to-day clinical work with different people and different situations, so therapy can be paced around what fits your life. Some people want structure and clear steps. Others need space to slow down and talk through what’s been going on.
When it comes to education, Ms Sijal has formal training in psychology and clinical practice, though specific university or degree details aren’t listed here. What stays consistent is the goal of making therapy feel clear, safe, and useful.
