Psychologist Beulah Park
Asking for help is a courageous step. We all experience times of turbulence and disruption in our lives.
As a seasoned psychologist and family therapist, I am here to offer my skills in providing help, support, and guidance.
Hi there, I’m Ros Yuen, a licensed psychologist and family therapist based near Beulah Park.
My mission is to partner with you to facilitate realistic and significant changes in your life if that’s your objective. I aim to interrupt the persistent loops of thought, feeling, and action that perpetuate your distress, and to introduce tools to help you progress.
I am deeply committed to guiding individuals through the journey of healing from stress and trauma, empowering them to lessen anxiety, triumph over depression, and forge enriching connections. In this contemporary landscape, it’s vital to develop the skills necessary to find contentment within ourselves, steering away from futile attempts to control the uncontrollable.
Primarily, I provide in-person services at my office, with the option of telehealth if needed. In the event of a mental health emergency, individuals will be directed to the SA Mental Health Triage Services at 131465 for immediate assistance.

Psychological Assistance
Nurturing a shift towards stronger, more enduring relationships alongside a mental health professional’s assistance may mark a significant turning point in your life journey.
Let’s embark on a journey to strengthen your relationship and enrich your life. Through tailored skills and strategies, I aim to empower you to navigate challenges effectively. My focus lies in fostering healthy couple and family dynamics, addressing your well-being.
It’s natural for intimate relationships to experience fluctuations, potentially leading to challenging issues that can be overwhelming to tackle alone.
The fabric of family ties is comprised of diverse perspectives, objectives, behaviours, and interactions. These elements can give rise to intricate dynamics that pose challenges to the happiness and wellness of all involved.
Amidst the changes and growth within families, there’s a blend of positivity and adversity. Navigating the complexities of blended family dynamics requires a tailored and sensitive approach to address the distinct challenges they present
Relationships with narcissists can initially seem thrilling and enjoyable, but as genuine care diminishes, they can swiftly turn sour, revealing their detrimental nature.
Various factors unique to same-sex couples need a comprehensive approach from a skilled professional who understands their specific needs.
Coping with workplace challenges like intimidation or harassment can feel overwhelming. Engaging with professional support services may offer valuable assistance in navigating and resolving these situations.

Initially, your GP may assign 6 sessions, with the possibility of an additional 4 sessions after a review consultation.

Rest assured, confidentiality is a cornerstone of our sessions. Psychologists adhere to strict ethical and legal guidelines that protect your privacy, except under circumstances such as a court order or if there is a credible threat of harm to yourself or others, requiring mandated reporting.

When you arrive, you’ll be asked to fill out an intake form in the waiting room. The first session is dedicated to exploring your concerns, with my gentle guidance to unearth any underlying issues.

Typically, the intake process spans two sessions, and during the initial session, my primary focus is on being an empathetic listener, fully present to your needs.

Gottman Relationship Therapy
Recognising the importance of tailoring approaches to suit individual or couple needs, I integrate various techniques. One method I frequently use is the Gottman Method, renowned for its ability to address relationship issues effectively
When conducting couples therapy and marriage counselling, this approach prioritises three relationship profiles: the friendship profile, the conflict profile, and the shared meanings profile.
The interventions provided are personalised to target the specific strengths and weaknesses of a couple’s relationship within these profiles. Key areas of focus include addressing perpetual issues, resolving solvable problems, and improving conflict resolution and communication strategies.
Are you experiencing difficulties with…?
Anger, though a common human emotion, can pose issues when handled destructively. Developing an understanding of your anger is pivotal to its control. Recognise triggers, heed warning signs, and adopt coping mechanisms to effectively manage them.
Ongoing worry or thoughts that are distressing and that interfere with daily living.
Feeling anxious is part of being human, but when it becomes sustained or reaches unmanageable levels, anxiety is no longer a normal response to certain situations.
If your behaviour is causing distress for you or your loved ones and is interfering with your life, seeking specialised treatment tailored to your specific requirements can offer valuable assistance in addressing these concerns.
While it’s common to have moments of feeling down, depression involves enduring feelings of sadness. If left unchecked, persistent depression can develop into a debilitating mental health disorder.
If you’re grappling with symptoms such as low energy, loss of interest in activities you typically enjoy, or a tendency to withdraw from social interactions, seeking support for a potential depressive disorder could be beneficial.
Stress is often associated with sensations of tension and apprehension, serving as a transient experience that may have adaptive qualities despite its discomfort. Nevertheless, when stress reaches harmful levels and starts to disrupt your capacity to function optimally, it demands focused strategies and coping mechanisms.
When something very frightening or threatening happens, a psychological wound can occur.
Traumatic experiences can have a significant impact. Signs and symptoms of issues connected to trauma may be physical, behavioural, emotional, or cognitive.
Obsessional thinking is frequently accompanied by repetitive behaviours or rituals aimed at easing the anxiety provoked by those thoughts. Dealing with this multifaceted issue typically requires the work of qualified and experienced professionals.
Challenges related to insecure attachment, dismissive-avoidant attachment, fearful-avoidant attachment, and anxious-preoccupied attachment typically call for extensive professional assistance.
