Individual Therapy
Our Approach
At Melbourne Psychology House, we're committed to providing genuine, focused, and transformative therapy. We want to reduce unnecessary suffering, promote long-term change, and help you make sense of your life. Our vision is to “Increase understanding to increase self-compassion”. In other words, we believe it’s important to have self-compassion for past experiences, actions, and behaviours rather than judging yourself for them.
​
Our Clinical Psychologists in Malvern aim to build a trusting, empathetic, and collaborative relationship, and are dedicated to creating a safe space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours without judgment.
We're known for our warm, down-to-earth approach and skill in working with complex issues. As we engage with you, we:
-
Focus our full attention, keeping notes to a minimum
-
Identify core issues and unhelpful patterns
-
Invite you to build awareness of feelings and responses
-
Provide honest reflections with care and without judgment
-
Collaborate to develop your capabilities and agency.
​​
Our goal is not just to treat symptoms but to help you understand yourself more fully, build healthier ways of relating, and expand your potential to thrive.
What Sets Us Apart?
We Tailor Therapy to You
At Melbourne Psychology House, we understand that life's challenges come in all shapes and sizes. At our clinic in Malvern, we offer various therapeutic approaches tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. These include:
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviours that contribute to emotional distress.
-
Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP): An emotion-focused approach that helps clients identify and resolve emotional conflicts underlying symptoms. It explores unconscious patterns and past experiences to gain insight into current emotional difficulties and relationship patterns.
-
Mindfulness-Based Therapy: Mindfulness techniques to help clients cultivate present-moment awareness and reduce stress.
