Gin S. Malhi is a Psychiatrist working out of the Royal North Shore Hospital CADE Clinic on the North Shore in NSW, Australia.
In day to day practice, Gin helps people who are dealing with changes in mood, thinking, and behaviour. This can include bipolar disorder and cyclothymic disorder, along with major depression. At times, the issues also sit alongside anxiety and trauma related symptoms, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Gin also looks after people who experience psychosis. That may mean conditions like schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, where a person’s thoughts, perception, or sense of reality can feel very different to usual. The focus is on working out what’s going on, making a plan, and reviewing how things are tracking over time.
Some appointments are about focus and day to day functioning too. This can include attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), especially when it affects school, work, or relationships. Other cases may involve eating related concerns such as anorexia, where support needs to be steady and practical.
There are also situations where physical symptoms and mental health connect in real life. For example, drug induced dyskinesia can be part of the story, along with movement patterns like stereotypic movement disorder. Memory loss may come up as well, as can tinnitus, which can be stressful and hard to live with when it won’t settle.
At the CADE Clinic, the approach tends to be calm and considered. Gin works with people and families to sort through symptoms, understand triggers and patterns, and figure out what helps. In many cases, that means supporting medication decisions as well as other ways of coping, so care feels more manageable instead of overwhelming.
Details like education history, research interests, and clinical trials aren’t listed here, but the main thing stays clear: psychiatric care that aims to be grounded, respectful, and focused on the person in front of you. Over time, the goal is to help people feel more in control, with support that fits their situation, not a one size fits all plan.
