Dr Mia Gentle - Forensic Psychologist

Sees Adults

Mia is a registered psychologist with a Doctorate in Psychology with a forensic specialisation. She has several years’ experience working with adults of all ages within a forensic context as well as more generally in private practice, and across a broad range of issues.

Mia recognises that it can be daunting to speak to a psychologist and to share your private world. Mindful and respectful of this, her therapeutic approach is one of unconditional positive regard. She provides a warm and non-judgmental space where you can feel safe sharing your story and feel empowered to make change. As all people are different, Mia has adopted an approach tailored to the individual. She will strive to ensure your evidenced-based therapy is informed by your own unique situation, preferences and needs.

Mia is available on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
