Susan Hart is a Psychiatrist based at St Vincent's Health Network in Darlinghurst, NSW 2010, Australia. She looks after adults and people dealing with eating-related mental health issues, where food, weight, and feelings can get tangled up in everyday life.
In her work, Susan focuses on conditions such as anorexia and obesity. These can affect both the body and the mind, and they often come with a lot of stress for the person and for the people around them. Sessions are usually about understanding what’s driving the behaviour, how it’s affecting health, and what can be done step by step.
At times, eating issues can feel hard to explain. They can sit alongside anxiety, low mood, or a sense of being “stuck”. Susan helps people slow things down, look at patterns, and make practical changes they can actually live with. She also pays attention to safety, physical wellbeing, and the mental load that comes with trying to get better.
Over time, Susan aims to build a calm, steady space where people feel listened to. The goal isn’t just quick fixes. It’s about support that fits real life—school, work, family routines, and all the in-between moments. Treatment can include talking therapies, careful medication decisions when they’re needed, and working out a plan that takes account of both mental and physical health.
Susan’s education and learning are part of her ongoing work as a psychiatrist. She keeps up with the changes that matter in mental health care, especially around eating-related conditions. While the details of research and clinical trial involvement aren’t listed here, she brings a whole-of-care mindset to her patients, and works in a way that supports long-term wellbeing.
