Paul Templeton is a psychologist based in Wagga Wagga, supporting people across the Riverina.
I support individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress-related conditions using practical, evidence-based approaches.
My goal is to help you understand what’s happening, regain clarity, and achieve meaningful change.
How I can help
Anxiety
& Phobias
I work with people to understand what’s driving their anxiety, why it persists, and to provide information and skills on what can help to shift it.
Depression
& Low Mood
I work with people to understand what is contributing to their low mood, why it continues, and what may help create movement and relief.
PTSD &
Trauma
I work collaboratively with people to understand how trauma has affected them, why symptoms persist, and what may support their recovery.
Adjustment
& Stress
I work with people to understand the context of what they’re experiencing, how the stressor is affecting their wellbeing, and what supports recovery.
Managing Emotions
I work with people to understand the triggers, patterns, and beliefs that contribute to emotional intensity, and to build skills that support stability.
“My work is about creating a space where people can understand themselves better and make meaningful change, at their own pace.”

Professional services
Supervision sessions can focus on clinical practice, leadership capability, or a combination of both. This may include clinical decision-making, ethical and risk considerations, reflective practice, service and workforce challenges, communication, stakeholder management, and leading within complex organisational environments. My approach is structured, pragmatic, and outcomes-focused, supporting professionals and leaders to operate with clarity, confidence, and accountability.
