Hi. I'm Kylie Di Battista and I am a Counselling and Clinical Psychologist with over two decades of experience. I provide counselling for a wide range psychological challenges including anxiety, depression, panic attacks and relationship problems. During sessions I aim to offer strategies to manage the immediate difficulties, and also to address the issues underlying a current problem which may arise from family conflict, a low sense of self-esteem or intergenerational trauma. Often clients present during times of life transition, such as new parenthood or relationship breakdown, which can be portals to enormous transformation.

With a ​focus on exploring how early childhood experiences and unmet needs ​impact the way we function in our relationships, my passion is in working with people who are seeking to break dysfunctional family cycles and make changes that align with their values. Within the person-centered approach, I think it is essential to acknowledge the impact that societal stressors and generational trauma have on the individual. My aim is to help clients navigate the challenges of maintaining emotional wellbeing within a culture that often promotes isolation, burnout and disconnection from the self.

Life is a dynamic process. Sometimes that process is smooth and easy to navigate and sometimes it is rocky and can become very hard. For me psychology is the way towards a better understanding of the dynamic process of life and psychotherapy is a workshop to create tools, specific to you, to help you live well. I am interested in making psychology accessible to everyone by meeting you where you are at in your story.
