Bita Riazati
Psychologist, Psychotherapist, Psychoanalyst
People come to therapy at different moments in life, often when something has become difficult to carry alone. This may take the form of anxiety, low mood, persistent self-doubt, or thoughts that return, as well as difficulties in intimate relationships, family life, or work. At times, there are questions that emerge around one's identity, direction, or one's place in the world.
I work with adults and children from diverse backgrounds, including those navigating migration, loss, transitions into parenthood, and changes within family or other relationships. These experiences are approached as something to be spoken and worked through in the sessions.
Sessions are available in English and Persian, in-person in Melbourne (Hawthorn and Belgrave) and online.

Bita Riazati is a psychologist in Hawthorn
We meet in sessions to speak about what may have been troubling you – sometimes for a long time, sometimes emerging more recently. You may find yourself asking: Why does this keep happening to me? Why do I find myself in the same situations? How do I know what I truly want? Bookings
Psychology & Psychotherapy
Psychoanalysis
Sometimes people want control over pressing issues in their lives that have long occupied their mind. Suddenly it becomes urgent to understand and work through the underlying cause, involving complexities, and past traumatic experiences. Psychoanalysis helps with dis-entangling one's being from factors not in one's control. Bookings

Grief & Loss
Inside things can feel heavy even though one may function; speaking in therapy can gently loosen difficulties, enabling being stuck in depression to find words and hope to move again.
Sexuality & Identity
Therapy offers a respectful space where you can explore these experiences without assumption or any pressure, and speak freely about what truly concerns you.
Child & Parenting
Therapy provides a careful, sensitive space, working collaboratively with parents to understand the child's experience, which is often the beginning of change.
About Therapy
One may find themselves caught between longing and resentment, closeness and distance, wanting connection yet feeling hurt or misunderstood. These tensions when they feel repetitive, overwhelming, or painful, people often feel relief when they talk about them in sessions.
