Amita Sarkar
Provisional Psychologist
I believe people are amazingly rich and diverse in every aspect and can sail through their challenges with the right help. I find satisfaction in helping my clients live a rich, full, and meaningful life by showing them how to use psychological tools to handle thoughts and feelings. As a clinical psychologist, it is a privilege and passion for me to support the individual journeys of my clients and witness how human beings can heal, grow, and prosper through the process of therapy.
Dr Amita Sarkar is a Clinical Psychologist with over 30 years’ experience of working with various clients including children, adolescents, adults and families. Prior to moving to Melbourne, she worked as a clinical psychologist in the UK and Singapore.
With a focus on the person rather than the problem or diagnosis, I practice psychological formulation, spending time to understand my clients’ backgrounds, relationships, stressors, and current environments before devising tailored treatment plans.
I adopt a reflective, warm, compassionate, and collaborative approach. I strive to establish a strong therapeutic alliance, understanding clients’ well-being goals, and identifying optimal ways to work together.
