Our Team
Dr Evan Wilson
Psychiatrist
Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery
Master of Health Service Management (Distinction)
Fellow of the Royal Australian & New Zealand College of Psychiatrists
Dr. Wilson earned his medical degree in Dunedin before practising across both Invercargill and Christchurch. As a specialist in child, adolescent, and youth psychiatry, he brings a wealth of clinical experience in diagnosing and supporting neurodivergent individuals and treating conditions such as anxiety, OCD, PTSD, and mood disorders. His clinical philosophy centres on equipping young people to navigate external stressors, overcome barriers, and unlock their full potential.
Having worked extensively within the public health sector, Dr. Wilson saw the detrimental effects that prolonged wait times have on a young person's recovery and the heavy toll it takes on their family’s wellbeing. This experience shaped his core mission at Mind Horizons: to deliver outstanding and prompt psychiatric care. He is dedicated to ensuring that mental health struggles and neurodevelopmental differences have the smallest possible footprint on a young person's future trajectory.
In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Wilson is a strong advocate for healthcare system enhancement and medical leadership. He has held multiple advisory positions within the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP), including roles on the Members' Advisory Council, the Trainees' Advisory Council, the Bi-National Committee for Trainees, and the Climate and Sustainability Steering Group.
Outside the clinic, Dr. Wilson is a dedicated swimmer. A former New Zealand representative in the 10km open water freestyle, he maintains his connection to the sport with morning training sessions before work. He also loves exploring the outdoors on camping adventures with his wife and their two young sons. Back in the office, his love for collecting kinetic art and sensory toys adds a fun, interactive atmosphere to his clinical space.
Dr Tim Cederman
Psychiatrist
Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery
Bachelor of Musical Arts
Fellow of the Royal Australian & New Zealand College of Psychiatrists
Born and raised in Christchurch, Dr Cederman completed his medical degree at the University of Otago before returning home to practise in 2017. He is a specialist child, adolescent, youth, and family psychiatrist with experience supporting young people and families across a wide range of conditions, including ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, and autism.
Dr Cederman is known for combining clinical expertise with a warm, positive approach. He believes that understanding a person's strengths is just as important as recognising the challenges they face, and he works collaboratively with young people and their families to help them thrive.
In addition to his core psychiatric training, Dr Cederman has extensive experience in a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), and Family Therapy. This allows him to offer comprehensive, personalised care that goes beyond medication alone, supporting lasting health and resilience.
Committed to providing timely, high-quality mental health care for families in Canterbury and throughout New Zealand, Dr Cederman is passionate about early intervention and prevention. He believes that accessing support at the right time can make a significant difference in helping children, young people, and families build confidence, emotional strength, and lifelong wellbeing.
Outside of work, Dr Cederman values balance, connection, and creativity. He enjoys writing and performing music in an indie-rock band, being in nature, and spending time with his wife and their two young sons, often in the garden at home.
