Attach Psychology Gold Coast

Hi, I am Dr Sia Bandarian, you can call me Dr Sia. I am a registered Clinical Psychologist and a Lecturer in the School of Applied Psychology at Griffith University. I provide treatment for adults, couples, and group therapy face to face and via telehealth (Zoom). I provide dynamic treatment for anxiety, trauma, depression, OCD, attachment problems, relationship problems, personality problems, and emotion regulation difficulties. 

For ISTDP Therapy ,I primarily provide a therapy called Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP). That is a big word but let me explain more about it here. If you would rather watch a video on the topic, check out the YouTube video below, where I explain what the topic is exactly. Getting safe, relinquishing our toxic defence mechanisms, regulating our anxiety, and accessing our genuine feelings is key to a good life and ISTDP is a modern therapy that attempts to achieve just that.

Group Therapy is a collaborative approach to healing and personal development.  At Attach Psychology, individuals who are carefully selected, participate in small groups to benefit from the clinical experience of our psychologist, Dr Sia. Group Therapy would suit you if one-on-one sessions sound too intense. Participating in this way means you learn, not just from the therapist, but also from the experiences of other people in the group. In response to this need, Dr Sia has put together a collection of Group Therapy modalities for adults.
