Sarah Fitt

Clinical Psychologist

Clinical Psychologist

Sarah's path into psychology began in the world of sport. Early encounters with performance challenges sparked a deep curiosity about the relationship between the mind, mental health and overall wellbeing and a personal experience working with a psychologist lit a fire that hasn't gone out since.

That foundation gives Sarah something most psychologists don't have, a lived understanding of what it feels like to need support, and what it means to find it.

Today Sarah brings that same warmth and genuine empathy to every client she sees at Fitt Physiotherapy. Her background spans public health, community and school settings, and her approach is both evidence-based and deeply human, drawing on cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness and an ability to meet each person exactly where they are.

Sarah has a particular interest in supporting women through the perinatal period, pregnancy, birth and the postpartum experience, as well as those navigating pelvic pain, chronic pain and the emotional dimensions of women's health. She understands that these experiences are often complex, layered and deeply personal. Her role is to create a space where women feel genuinely safe to explore them.

Working alongside the Fitt Physiotherapy team, Sarah is part of an integrated model of care that addresses the whole person, not just the physical symptoms. When psychology and physiotherapy work together, the outcomes are consistently better. That's the model she believes in.

Outside of work Sarah loves staying active, spending time with friends and family, and getting lost in a good romance novel.
