Dana Yalouz
Psychologist, Trauma and Accredited EMDR Therapist
I am a registered psychologist, experienced trauma and accredited EMDR therapist, passionate about providing an empathetic and authentic experience for individuals seeking to understand themselves and create meaningful change.
I grew up in Sydney, near the eastern beaches, and have supported people across the lifespan in navigating a range of mental health challenges including anxiety, panic, depression, trauma, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, substance use, neurodiversity, and more.
My clinical experience spans both public and private sectors, including work within multidisciplinary teams supporting young people with complex mental health needs. I also have experience working with the Australian Defence Force, including serving personnel, veterans, and their families.
Most recently, I have worked in private practice, supporting clients to process and heal from trauma. I work across all areas of trauma, understanding that trauma can be any experience that leaves a lasting impact on a person’s sense of safety and wellbeing. My work includes supporting clients after recent traumatic experiences, as well as those navigating dissociation, dissociative disorders, complex trauma, developmental and attachment-based trauma.
