Luisa Drusian
Provisional Psychologist
“Why fit in when you were born to stand out?” – Dr Seuss
By recognising and embracing our unique qualities and differences, we enrich our lives and inspire those around us.
Luisa’s approach focuses on helping individuals achieve their best selves and build resilience through personalised goal setting and addressing limiting thoughts and beliefs. She guides clients in identifying their strengths and taking practical and measurable steps toward their goals, altering the fear of standing out, into the courage to shine.
Luisa is deeply committed to providing high-quality psychological care for individuals of all ages. Fostering an inclusive environment is a priority, and Luisa is passionate in working with diverse populations to address their unique needs. Luisa also stays informed about the current social climate and its effects on today’s youth, holding both the knowledge and skills needed to support them effectively.
Luisa has a particular interest for conducting diagnostic assessments for children, adolescents, and adults, with a special interest in ADHD, intellectual disabilities, giftedness, and specific learning disorders. Luisa’s approach is tailored and strength-based, incorporating Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Behavioural Activation.
Additionally, she is developing her understanding of eating disorders and enhancing her skills in Motivational Interviewing.
Outside the Therapy Room
To maintain overall good health, I practice Pilates multiple times a week.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family, catching up with friends, and exploring new restaurants.
What is Luisa into right now?
I love watching and reading period pieces, with Pride and Prejudice being my favourite—I’ve watched it countless times!
