Hi! I’m Dr. Amy Tran

Welcome to your safe space 💜

I’m the face behind doodledwellness —a clinical psychologist (supervised practice), doodler, mom, and a millennial who believes healing doesn’t have to feel stuffy or clinical. With a PhD in clinical psychology and a background in visual and creative arts, I make mental health content relatable, accessible, and wonderfully colourful.

In my 20’s, I was medicated for anxiety, out of touch with my emotions and body, had low self-worth, struggled with burnout and perfectionism, and was stuck in toxic relationships (hello, anxious-avoidant cycles). Having gone through this, I understand how hard it can be to break free from old patterns.

Through many years of my own therapy, yoga and meditation practice, and studying the human brain, I discovered that healing doesn’t just happen by talking to someone.

It happens when we feel safe enough in our bodies to explore the patterns that are keeping us stuck, break free from these automatic cycles, and replace them with conscious thoughts, feelings, and actions that align with the life we want to live. So now I’m here to help you break autopilot and consciously live!

I have used what I’ve learned—both from my personal journey and my professional background—to help others heal from anxiety and depression, abandon self-criticism and perfectionism, ditch toxic relationships, cultivate mindfulness, and finally recreate themselves. You deserve it too💜
