About Caroline Horvat

PROVISIONAL PSYCHOLOGIST

I have always held a strong interest in psychology and mental health since a young age. I enjoy being part of each client’s journey to recovery and watching them grow. I bring an empathetic, authentic, and collaborative approach to my practice to create a warm and safe environment for my clients where they feel supported and understood. I enjoy supporting and working with individuals across the lifespan and I have had experience working with a wide range of psychological concerns in both community-based organisations and private settings.

“I believe each individual deserves an opportunity to
feel heard, understood and supported.”

How I help


My work currently supports clients with therapeutic, assessment and diagnostic services. As a psychologist, I work with my clients to achieve their individual goals using a client-centred and strengths-based approach.As each client is different, I tailor my approaches to meet the unique needs of each person and will work with them to decide what will work best for the
client. Additionally, I find it important for each client have a strong sense of autonomy when working with me as I believe each client is the expert in their own life.

 

I value collaboration with your support network where appropriate (including parents, schools, and other health professionals) to promote a stronger understanding of your strengths and challenges, and to implement the support to enable you to build coping mechanisms and create changes to support your well-being. I see clients with a range of presentations, including stress, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), low self-esteem, anger management, trauma, school bullying and relationship challenges. My approach draws upon a wide range of evidence-based psychological treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Schema-informed
therapy.

Why I’m here

​

I feel very fortunate to be working at Boutique Psychology as a Provisional Psychologist. I believe working in a small team of passionate and committed therapists allows for a warm and collaborative environment where I feel supported.

There is such diversity among both staff and clients and I believe I working here allows me to grow both personally and
professionally.


Things I love to do


I enjoy exercise and going to the gym. I love to be out in nature, and I enjoy going on the occasional hikes. I am a casual gamer and enjoy playing video games with my partner during my downtime. I also follow the AFL and I am a die-hard Collingwood supporter. I love to travel and I am always on the lookout for the next thrill. I also enjoy making memories with friends and loved ones. I love animals and I am a cat-mom to two beautiful Russian Blue cats – Zelda and Link.
