Aislinn Sharp

As a psychologist and R U OK? Ambassador, Aislinn is passionate about supporting the theme of World Mental Health Day through her practice: "Mental health is a basic human right for all people”, and “everyone, whoever and wherever they are, has a right to the highest attainable standard of mental health” (World Health Organization, 2023).

As a psychologist and musician, Aislinn combines the art of understanding human behaviour with the creativity of music. This unique blend allows her to connect with a broad range of people through a broad range of approaches that at times will combine exploring the complexities of the human mind through psychology and expressing emotions through music, Consequently, Aislinn brings a holistic approach to her work, offering a well-rounded perspective that resonates with many.

Aislinn also applies a broad range of talking therapies to help with anxiety and depression, and positive psychology approaches to assist with optimal mental health and wellbeing. These approaches include, for example, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, Growth Mindset, and Narrative Therapy.

Combining her knowledge and experience as a psychologist and music artist in the entertainment industry, Aislinn provides quality performance psychology, and mental health-based one-to-one consults, group work programs, and workshops. Her experience includes working with pre-tertiary and tertiary music students at both Open and Queensland Conservatorium (Griffith University), as well as schools (e.g., Grace Lutheran College, Caboolture) offering support with managing performance anxiety, emotional regulation, and finding joy in music activities.

 Aislinn's passion for music and mental health has resulted in her becoming a Patron for the Choir of Hard Knocks, and social entrepreneur and Founder of 'Music and The Mind' - a show that promotes mental health awareness through her original music and dialogue with the audience. She values helping and supporting others in the arts, sport and entrepreneurship community with building resilience and health and wellbeing practices in the pursuit of peak performance and excellence.
