Getting to know gretchen
Gretchen Mitchell loves to bring people into freedom. This usually involves helping set people free from the things they believe about themselves and the world that are unhealthy or untrue. During sessions, she works on two levels: teaching practical strategies and skills to help you with the issues at hand, and then deeper work to discover where the issue comes from and bringing healing into that area of trauma or pain.
Gretchen has been a psychologist working in Private Practice since 2006. Prior to that she worked as a Youth Worker for five years. She is now finishing up her one-one-one counselling practice at Easter 2026 to pursue training of groups and .businesses team wellness and mental health.
You can meet Gretchen at her offices, out at a coffee shop, park or even on the beach if you would prefer.
She was the Chairperson for the Sunshine Coast Branch of the Australian Psychological Society (Australia’s largest body representing psychologists) from 2019-2021 and was a regular voice on Salt 106.5FM the Morning Wake Up with her “Think Well, Be Well” segment until recently.
