About Us
Welcome to Bear Hug Psychology! I’m Ursula Pearce, a registered psychologist and the founder of this service dedicated to supporting mental health. I’m passionate about supporting young people and adults (18+) feel heard and understood. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, self-doubt, or life changes, I offer a supportive space to explore your challenges and grow.
I aim to address your concerns with curiosity and empathy. I believe in creating a compassionate and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment.
Some of my areas of interests include:
Anxiety
OCD
People Pleasing and Perfectionism
ADHD
Gender and Sexuality
Relationships
Low self esteem
When I’m not working, I love staying active through weightlifting and running, watching scary movies, and reading a book. I look forward to getting to know you and supporting you on your mental health journey.
