About Foresight Psychology

Foresight Psychology is a Sydney-based psychology practice dedicated to supportive and effective psychological care. We believe in offering evidence-based psychological treatment that is affordable and accessible to all, no matter your background or situation.

Foresight Psychology was founded by Dr Erika Penney in 2015 with the aim of building a warm and welcoming psychology practice that offered clients personalised and efficacious therapy. The current directors, Dr Amy Burton and Dr Andreea Heriseanu, and the team of talented Foresight psychologists continue with this goal today.

Foresight Psychology is a small private practice, located in a no-frills office building in Ultimo which is conveniently close to public transport — making our practice accessible for our clients. All Foresight Psychology clinicians are warm, approachable and friendly, while also being highly trained and skilled qualified psychologists.

Our commitment to excellence

All Foresight psychologists have completed specialised postgraduate training in clinical psychology and are registered with AHPRA (Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency). As such, our qualifications meet the criteria established by the Psychology Board of Australia for registration as a psychologist.

To uphold this standard, a minimum of 30 hours of ongoing professional development is completed every year to ensure our clinical skills are up-to-date with the latest in evidence-based psychological treatments. Senior members of our team hold clinical endorsements from the Psychology Board of Australia and are Board Approved Clinical Supervisors.
