Psychoanalysis in Melbourne. If a psychoanalyst is in a position to listen, then the patient - the one said to be 'in analysis', is certainly in a position to speak. Nevertheless, there is very little that is certain about being in a position to speak, especially speaking under the directive of the fundamental rule: Say whatever comes to mind, censor nothing, no matter how insignificant, Idiotic, perverse, or crazy you think it is. Proceeding along these lines significant light can be shed on what ails us.

Hi, I’m Paul (he/they), a psychologist committed to walking alongside people from marginalised communities, particularly queer and neurodivergent people, as they navigate healing, identity, and growth. Supporting oppressed people is not just my profession—it is part of my life mission and my own journey of personal liberation. My work is grounded in the belief that distress does not exist in a vacuum, and that many of the challenges people face are shaped by systemic inequity, stigma, and power imbalance rather than individual failure. I believe our collective liberation comes from communion with one another.

I believe lived experience is an essential complement to professional training. It deepens empathy, reduces judgement, and allows clients to feel genuinely understood rather than analysed. My work focuses on helping clients develop insight and effective strategies for change during periods of stress, transition, or relational difficulty.
In relationship counselling, I work with individuals and couples navigating conflict, separation, or the process of rebuilding trust. Where separation is inevitable, I support respectful communication, negotiation, in order to maintain long-term emotional stability.

I see therapy as a space where people can arrive exactly as they are—messy, uncertain, overwhelmed, hopeful, grieving or growing—and feel genuinely met within that experience. I work from the belief that we cannot understand people by looking only at symptoms or problems in isolation. We are shaped through our relationships, our histories, our bodies, our identities, our communities, and the wider social and cultural worlds we live within. Together, we slow things down with curiosity and compassion, making space to understand the whole person, discovering new ways of relating to yourself, others and the challenges you are facing.

I am particularly passionate about adult attachment repair.
Undertaking therapy is a very personal and meaningful journey—whether you're looking to heal trauma, face relationship struggles, or simply wanting to understand yourself more deeply. The growth that can come from this inner work often not only nurtures your own wellbeing but positively impacts those around you. It’s a genuine honour to walk alongside my clients as they navigate challenges, build more self understanding and unlock deeper inner resilience. My work aims to support gentle reconnection—with self and others—especially where early attachment experiences have shaped current ways of relating.

FAQ - About Adult Counselling
Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioural therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.
How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists in Australia hold various credentials depending on their training. Counsellors and Psychotherapists are registered with the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) or the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and their qualifications and practice are overseen by these professional organisations. Psychologists must be registered with the Psychology Board of Australia (PsyBA) and have professional designations such as Clinical Psychologist, General Psychologist, or Counselling Psychologist. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.
How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
