Miriam Porchun
Sunshine Coast Psychologist

Miriam is a trauma-informed therapist who is passionate about providing a warm, safe, and supportive space where you can feel heard and understood. She has experience working with anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, stress, neurodivergence, and grief and loss. Miriam works collaboratively with you to explore your experiences, gain insight into your needs, and develop practical strategies that support greater mental clarity and overall wellbeing.

As a wife and mother, Miriam is passionate about supporting people through every stage of life, from childhood to older adulthood. She has a particular interest in helping individuals and families navigate the challenges of parenthood and providing a calm, compassionate space during times of stress, change, and overwhelm. With a European background and professional experience in correctional settings and the Queensland education system, she has supported people from a wide range of cultural, social, and personal backgrounds.

Miriam believes that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all approach. She tailors her care to your unique circumstances, drawing on evidence-based therapies including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Family Systems Therapy (FST), and Eye Movement De-sensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Miriam is committed to delivering compassionate, evidence-based care that empowers you to build resilience, develop practical coping skills, and move towards meaningful, lasting change.
