Eligible sessions bulk-billed · GP plan and referral needed

I'm Kylie, an AHPRA-registered psychologist with experience supporting people across a range of settings, including elite sport, community and private practice. I bring a warm, empathetic and down-to-earth approach, drawing on evidence-based therapies including CBT, ACT, EMDR, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness, and Somatic approaches, alongside a genuine curiosity about people and their experiences.

I support women and people of all genders navigating fertility challenges, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, anxiety, depression, identity changes, parenting challenges and the emotional complexities of becoming or being a parent. I have a particular interest in difficult pregnancy experiences, including hyperemesis gravidarum, and the often overlooked physical and emotional impact these experiences can have.

I believe meaningful psychological support begins with feeling genuinely heard, understood and accepted. Sessions with me are conversational, collaborative and tailored to you, recognising that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to wellbeing. There is room to explore, reflect, laugh, cry or simply make sense of what you're experiencing.

Together, we'll work towards greater self-understanding, building practical strategies, developing self-compassion and finding ways to feel more connected to yourself through life's changing seasons.
