Susan Watson

I’m Dr Susan Watson, a clinical psychologist based in Takapuna. I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate personal and life problems including anxiety, depression, trauma, work-related stress, grief, the emotional challenges of breakups and other life challenges. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I provide tailored support to help clients build resilience, process difficult emotions, and move forward with confidence. In addition to my clinical work, I lecture in CBT to mental health professionals at the Otago University Medical School and I previously spent 10 years at Massey University training clinical psychologists. I am committed to providing a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and gain the tools to make changes and build a rich and meaningful life.
