OUR PSYCHOLOGISTS
MEET
Ashley Ramirez
Ashley is a warm and passionate psychologist who works under the philosophy that every person has an intrinsic strength to grow, adapt and overcome, if only challenged and encouraged. Ashley believes that through connection and deep reflection, self-awareness, resilience and confidence is built. Ashley has experience working in youth care, the justice system and in psychiatric hospital settings prior to joining InTouch Health Co.
She has worked with families, adolescents and adults, with a wide range of gender identities, cultural backgrounds and mental health concerns including; anxiety, depression, trauma, Borderline Personality Disorder, grief and loss, substance abuse, perinatal mental health, emotion dysregulation, self-harm, suicidal ideation and relationship issues.
The fundamental belief that people inherently know their strengths and capabilities and the direction they want their life to take, is what Ashley uses to guide her client-centred approach. Each client is unique and therefore no singular approach will work. As such, Ashley draws from various evidence-based approaches including; Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI) in order to create the most holistic therapeutic plan.
Ashley has a Bachelor of Psychological Science from the University of New South Wales, a Graduate Diploma of Psychological Science from Bond University and a Masters of Counselling and Psychotherapy from the Australian College of Applied Psychology.

Angela Stojcevska
​Angela is a warm and empathic psychologist committed to empowering clients to create meaningful change. She is deeply invested in client-focused therapy, offering compassion and support while working collaboratively to understand each individual’s unique experiences and goals. Central to her work is the belief that every person holds the inherent capacity to learn, grow, and change and that therapy can help bring this inner strength into focus.
Angela’s approach is grounded in a holistic framework, incorporating evidence-based strategies thoughtfully tailored to each client. She provides a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to express fears and challenges, where vulnerability can become a powerful foundation for resilience and growth. She is passionate about fostering a space where clients are able to unfold their narrative and develop deeper self-awareness.
Angela has experience working across private practice, occupational rehabilitation, and multidisciplinary medical centre settings, supporting individuals with a range of presentations, including depression, anxiety and panic disorders, adjustment disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma, pregnancy and postpartum mental health, women’s health (including menopause), grief and loss, self-harm, relationship issues, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and workplace stress and injury counselling.
Angela holds a Bachelor of Social Science Psychology and a Graduate Diploma in Psychology. She is fully registered as a Psychologist with AHPRA and is a WorkCover SIRA accredited provider.
