Julijana Chochovski

Julijana Chochovski is an AHPRA-registered Senior Clinical Psychologist, Board-approved supervisor and founder of Pre-Emptive Healthcare. She has extensive experience in trauma-informed care, youth mental health, clinical supervision and the delivery of professional education and wellbeing programs. Julijana is a Fellow of the Australian Psychological Society’s College of Clinical Psychologists and is currently completing a PhD through the University of Melbourne in partnership with Orygen Youth Mental Health, researching informal peer support among young people.

Julijana’s philosophy is grounded in compassionate, inclusive and evidence-based care. She believes effective mental healthcare should recognise each person’s individual experiences, strengths and circumstances while providing a safe, respectful and collaborative environment for meaningful change.

Her vision is to improve access to high-quality psychological support by integrating clinical expertise, trauma-informed practice, education and early intervention. Through Pre-Emptive Healthcare, she aims to build a responsive and multidisciplinary service that supports individuals, families, professionals and organisations to strengthen wellbeing, resilience and long-term mental health outcomes.

Julijana’s approach to quality care is centred on evidence-based, trauma-informed and person-centred practice. Care is tailored to each client’s needs, circumstances and goals, with an emphasis on safety, respect, cultural sensitivity and collaborative decision-making.

Quality is supported through thorough assessment, appropriate treatment planning, regular review of progress and the use of recognised therapeutic approaches. Julijana also prioritises ethical practice, professional supervision, ongoing training, clinical governance and clear communication with clients and other treating professionals. This approach promotes consistent, accountable and responsive care while supporting meaningful and sustainable mental health outcomes.

Julijana uses a compassionate, collaborative and trauma-informed therapeutic approach tailored to each client’s needs, goals and life circumstances. Her work is grounded in evidence-based practice and may incorporate Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness-based strategies, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, and Cognitive Processing Therapy.

She places strong emphasis on creating a safe and respectful therapeutic relationship, helping clients understand their experiences, develop practical coping strategies and build lasting emotional resilience. Treatment is regularly reviewed and adapted to ensure it remains responsive, effective and aligned with the client’s progress.
