About Nourished Psychology
I am a psychologist working in the area of maternal mental health and am passionate about helping mothers navigate the ups and downs of motherhood. After becoming a mother myself, I realised what an immense adjustment it is and how mothers need to be better supported.Mothers need to be nourished physically, mentally and emotionally just as much as the babies do.
Areas of expertise
I am a registered psychologist with a Masters in Educational Developmental Psychology.
I am passionate about the area of maternal mental health and enjoy working with women across the following challenges:
- Body image
- Disordered eating
- Identity issues in motherhood
- Emotional regulation
- Parenting
- Anxiety
- Life transitions
Motherhood is messy, joyful and chaotic and sometimes we just need someone else to hold us through the ups and downs.

Olive Counselling
Hello, I’m Katrina, the founder of Olive Counselling. I’m an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker and a mum of two.
At Olive Counselling, I specialise in perinatal mental health and couples counselling. I work with parents experiencing postnatal depression and anxiety, birth trauma, fertility challenges, grief and loss, identity shifts, and the everyday stresses of parenting. I also support couples to strengthen their relationship during the perinatal period, navigate changes in intimacy, improve communication, and work through conflict with compassion and respect.
My approach blends evidence-based therapies such as EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Circle of Security, mindfulness, and somatic practices. This allows me to tailor sessions to your unique needs whether you’re looking for gentle emotional support, practical coping strategies, or deeper trauma processing.
I understand that becoming a mother can be overwhelming. You may be navigating sleepless nights, big emotions, changes in your relationship, and a sense of losing the “old you.” Whether you’re seeking a safe place to process your feelings, practical parenting tools, or ways to reconnect with your partner, you’ll find understanding and guidance here.
At Olive Counselling, my hope is that you feel truly seen, supported, and understood, not just as a mum but as your unique self! Together, we can gently work through the challenges, strengthen your relationships, and help you find a sense of calm, connection, and confidence in this chapter of life.

Do I Need a Postpartum Doula? Here’s What They Really Do
"Do I Really Need This?" It’s a question so many new mums ask, often in the quiet chaos of the fourth trimester. “Do I actually need a postpartum doula? Isn’t that a bit... extra?” When your body is sore, your hormones are surging, and you’re running on fragments of sleep, it’s not about luxury, it’s about being held while you hold your baby. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, touched out, or just bone-tired, this blog is your starting point. Let’s demystify the role of a postpartum doula and help you decide if they’re the kind of support you’re craving.

Why Hiring Postpartum In-Home Support Can Transform Your Recovery
If I had my way, support would be non-negotiable and, in an ideal world, would have government funding, so everyone can access the help we all deserve. We can shape our families' and therefore babies' complete outcomes (and lives!) by providing education, but above all, support in those early days. It is essential for a mother who has given birth to rest and recover.
