Dr Ingrid McGuffog is a Brisbane-based psychotherapist and clinical criminologist offering specialised therapeutic support for individuals navigating behavioural issues, addictions, trauma, and involvement in the criminal or family court system. With a PhD in Criminology and a Master of Counselling & Psychotherapy, she brings academic depth and professional experience to each therapeutic relationship.
Her practice supports people from diverse backgrounds, including professionals, business owners, and tradespeople, who may feel underserved by traditional health systems. Services are tailored to address the unique life context of each client, with a focus on real, sustained change.
She also has a Master of Counselling & Psychotherapy. She is a registered practitioner with the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) and is a member of the American Society of Criminology.
Her lived experience and credentials bring together academic expertise, professional skills and a deeply personal understanding of addiction, recovery and the challenge of overcoming cycles of self-sabotage. These create the foundation for building a powerful therapeutic alliance with each client.
Dr McGuffog offers clinical treatment reports for sentencing, providing courts with clear documentation of therapeutic engagement and behavioural progress. These reports are often instrumental in legal proceedings, demonstrating accountability and rehabilitation.
She also facilitates two core programs: Reframe Your Life, designed to support clients overcoming substance use and self-destructive behaviour, and the Family Wellbeing Program, a behaviour change group for men.
All services are built on a foundation of compassion, professionalism, and cultural awareness. Therapy is structured, client-centred, and focused on outcomes that extend beyond legal matters, supporting individuals in building healthier, more stable futures.
