Dr Catherine Hynes is a Clinical Psychologist and Psychologist based in Woolloongabba, Brisbane. You can find the practice at Ground Floor, 6 Broadway Street, Woolloongabba QLD 4102.
In day-to-day work, Dr Hynes looks after people who want help with how they’re coping. That might be stress, anxiety, feeling low, or just getting stuck in patterns that are hard to shift. At times, people come in after life changes, relationship tension, or when work and home start to feel too much.
Dr Hynes also works with couples and families. Couples counselling can help when communication has gone off track, or when trust, conflict, or big decisions keep turning into the same fights. Family therapy is often about supporting the whole system, not just one person, especially when emotions run high and everyone feels worn out.
Her approach includes individual therapy sessions, along with behavioural therapy. Behavioural therapy can be practical and grounded. It focuses on the things that are happening in day-to-day life, and how thoughts, feelings, and actions can feed into each other. In many cases, sessions aim to make change feel doable, step by step, rather than overwhelming.
Dr Hynes understands that everyone’s situation is different. Some people want a calm place to talk and sort out what’s really going on. Others want more structure and clear tools they can use between sessions. Often, it’s a mix. The goal is to find what works for your life, your pace, and what you’re dealing with right now.
Language-wise, sessions are available in English and French. That can make things easier if you prefer to explain your story in the language you’re most comfortable with.
Over time, Dr Hynes has built a practice around steady support, respectful listening, and helping people move forward. If you’re not sure what kind of help you need, that’s okay. Starting with a first appointment is often the easiest way to figure it out, and to talk through what’s been hardest lately.
Appointments are held at the Woolloongabba clinic address above. If you want to know what services are the best fit—individual, couples, or family therapy—Dr Hynes can help point you in the right direction.
