Welcome to Frank Sattler Psychology
A clinical psychology practice based in Sydney's CBD
About
Hi, I'm Frank (he/him), a clinical psychologist and the director of Frank Sattler Psychology. I support individuals and couples with relationship challenges, LGBTQIA+ related concerns, attachment issues, trauma/PTSD, ADHD, OCD, anxiety, depression, and adjustment difficulties.
I aim to be empathetic, creating a safe, collaborative space where clients can explore their experiences, emotions, and history, understand the cycles that keep them stuck, and develop new ways of engaging with themselves and others.
Prior to setting up independently, I worked in private practice in Australia, and in Germany across private practice, hospitals, outpatient clinics, and universities. I offer therapy in both English and German.
