Kara Choi is a Clinical Psychologist with over 13 years of experience supporting adults, new parents, and couples to feel more connected—to themselves, to each other, and to what matters most in their lives.

Many of the people Kara works with are navigating big transitions: becoming a parent, facing relationship challenges, healing from past wounds, or simply feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to start. Kara gently helps clients make sense of their experiences, understand their emotions, and feel more grounded and empowered in their everyday lives.

Kara holds a Master of Clinical Psychology and Postgraduate Diploma of Professional Psychology from Macquarie University, and a Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) from the University of NSW. Her published research explores the effects of maternal trauma on child and parent wellbeing. She brings this deep understanding of attachment, trauma, and emotional development into her therapeutic work.

She has worked in a wide range of settings including specialist perinatal and parenting services, hospitals, schools, university clinics, and private practice. Kara is also a trained facilitator of the Circle of Security Parenting™ program and an AHPRA-approved Clinical Supervisor.

Kara’s therapeutic style is warm, respectful, and collaborative. Clients often describe her as calm, thoughtful, and easy to talk to. She creates a safe and supportive space where you can bring your full self—messy emotions and all—without fear of judgment. Her approach is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and tailored to your unique goals, drawing from a range of evidence-based models.

Kara also welcomes clients who are seeking therapy that integrates their Christian faith. For those who value a spiritual perspective, she offers a space where your beliefs can be part of the conversation if you choose.

Whether you’re taking the first step toward therapy or looking for a psychologist who truly sees and understands you—Kara offers a thoughtful and grounded presence to walk alongside you.
