SARA GRIFFIN
provisional psychologist
Sara is a Provisionally Registered Psychologist completing her supervised internship at Self Reflections following the completion of her Master of Professional Psychology. She works with individuals experiencing anxiety, low mood, stress, adjustment difficulties, grief, and a range of emotional and relational challenges, with a growing interest in supporting more complex presentations.
Sara is passionate about helping clients move beyond simply managing symptoms to developing a deeper understanding of themselves. She believes that lasting change comes through exploring the patterns, experiences, and relationships that shape the way we think, feel, and respond to the world.
Sara brings a warm, calm, and thoughtful presence to therapy. She understands that beginning therapy can feel vulnerable and places great importance on creating a space where clients feel safe, heard, and genuinely supported. Her gentle and collaborative style encourages curiosity, self-compassion, and meaningful reflection, allowing therapy to unfold at a pace that feels manageable and respectful.
Drawing on a trauma-informed and schema-informed framework, Sara integrates Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, mindfulness-based approaches, and parts work to support clients in building insight, strengthening emotional awareness, and developing healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. Working collaboratively, she aims to help clients create meaningful and sustainable change that extends beyond the therapy room.

Therapy can feel scary but that's often where meaningful change begins. It's a space where we can slow things down, make sense of what's happening and move at a pace that feels safe for you.
