Rachel Pendlebury is a Registered Psychologist with a particular interest in the treatment of eating disorders, and a longstanding commitment to reducing the stigma that surrounds body image and appearance.
She works with individuals across the lifespan — children, adolescents and adults — presenting with eating disorders, anxiety, depression, behavioural challenges, and the realities of being neurodivergent. Her therapeutic approach is grounded in empathy and collaboration: a safe space for clients to feel supported through what is rarely a linear journey.
Rachel draws from a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches including CBT, ACT and DBT, with specialist training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Eating Disorders (CBT-E) and Family Based Therapy (FBT).
The practice operates fully online via secure video, allowing clients from anywhere in Australia to access specialist psychology without geographic constraint.
Drawn from established evidence-based frameworks. ★ indicates specialist training.
Therapy works best when it feels less like therapy, and more like a real conversation with someone paying full attention.
A note on Medicare: rebates for psychologist-led ADHD and Autism assessments are currently limited. Medicare presently rebates psychiatrist-led assessment, not psychologist-led. Specific situations are discussed transparently before booking, so there are no surprises.
Books that frequently come up in the work — for clients trying to make sense of what's going on for themselves or someone close to them.
For clients in a complicated relationship with food. Less clinical, more storytelling — and that's why it lands.
An accessible read for adults considering whether autism has been part of the picture all along.
A long-standing ADHD primer that captures what the condition feels like from the inside.
For understanding how trauma lives in the nervous system. Dense, but worth the work.
A therapist's memoir that demystifies what therapy actually involves. A gentle on-ramp.
From the creator of CBT-E. A self-help adjunct that is genuinely evidence-based.

No referral is required to book. A referral is only needed to access Medicare rebates — specifically, a Mental Health Treatment Plan (MHTP) from your GP. For eating disorders, an Eating Disorder Management Plan (EDMP) provides access to a larger number of rebated sessions per calendar year.
Currently, Medicare rebates psychiatrist-led ADHD and Autism assessments, not psychologist-led assessments. Some sessions within an assessment may be partially rebated under a Mental Health Treatment Plan. Each client's specific situation is discussed transparently before booking.

Children, adolescents and adults. Family Based Therapy is offered for adolescents with eating disorders. Cognitive assessments use age-appropriate tools (WISC-V for children, WAIS-IV for adults).
