Evidence-based support for every chapter of your life.

Supporting adults and older adults through anxiety, life transitions, and health‑related challenges with compassionate, evidence‑based therapy.

Hi, I’m Dr Romy Engelbrecht, a clinical psychologist and registered music therapist in Brisbane, Australia.

I’m passionate about creating inclusive, non-judgmental spaces where clients feel safe to explore challenges and build resilience. Using my background in creative therapies, I take a flexible, collaborative approach, helping adults and older adults navigate anxiety, chronic health conditions, life transitions, and women’s mental health with practical strategies and compassionate support.

I believe every client’s journey is unique, and therapy works best when it’s tailored to the person.

I can help with

  • Stress & Anxiety – including health anxiety and adjustment challenges

  • Life Transitions & Physical Health Adjustments – chronic illness, progressive neurological diseases, retirement, and late-life change

  • Women’s Mental Health – postnatal anxiety, menopause, endometriosis, and gynaecological concerns

  • Palliative Care – support for individuals and families facing serious illness

  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) – helping individuals manage intrusive thoughts, repetitive behaviors, and the anxiety that can accompany them through evidence-based strategies.

  • Life Transitions & Physical Health Adjustments – supporting people through major life changes or adapting to new health challenges, helping them cope, adjust, and build resilience.
