My focus is to provide a thoughtful and collaborative space for people who want to better understand themselves, navigate emotional difficulty, and create meaningful change in their lives. My approach is calm, practical, and person-centred, with a focus on building trust, exploring patterns, and helping clients make sense of what they’re experiencing without judgment. I’m especially interested in the connection between early experiences, relationships, identity, and the way we cope under stress. I work with clients who may feel stuck, overwhelmed, self-critical, disconnected, or uncertain about how to move forward.

I have a particular interest in men’s wellbeing and creating safe, supportive spaces for men to explore their emotional health, as well as women, teens, and couples.
My philosophy as a therapist is centred on deeply honouring the unique human in front of me. Rather than focusing on labels or diagnoses —I like to meet people where they are, with curiosity, compassion, and the belief that what they’re going through does not define who they are. I practice psychotherapy, helping clients achieve long lasting change.

I work with clients across the lifespan, experiencing a range of mental health difficulties. I have particular interest in working with boys and men from aged 12 right through to older adulthood. My therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in attachment theory. I believe that our early relational experiences shape our emotional well-being and influence our present psychological difficulties. I work with clients to understand how our early experiences shape current functioning, finding ways to undo the knots of our history and pursue life in a way that is congruent with ones values.

Do you feel like you are not living the life you imagined, feeling overwhelmed, struggling with day to day stressors and not even close to reaching your potential? Do you suffer from anxiety and negative thinking patterns which take you away from the life you want to lead? Do you feel like there's something holding you back from performing at your best? Imagine you could wake up and you had learnt to live with your fear, anxiety, stress and life's struggles and they weren't holding you back anymore and you were able to thrive. Wouldn't that be great!

Shenton Park, WA 6008
I'm a Clinical Psychologist and have seen many people come to therapy feeling emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in painful relationship patterns, disconnected from themselves/others, or exhausted from carrying things alone for too long. Others struggle with anxiety, self-criticism, anger, trauma, or emotions that feel difficult to understand or manage. Therapy can provide a space to slow things down, make sense of painful or confusing experiences, explore patterns that may sit outside awareness, better understand oneself, find relief and move towards change.

I'm Dom Caesar (they/them), an autistic and queer social worker. I work with people aged 16 and up, and especially welcome those who identify as neurodivergent, queer, or trans - or who have felt misunderstood or unsupported in more traditional therapy settings. Some themes and issues I love exploring with people include burnout, emotional exhaustion, and the toll of masking; identity (including neurodivergence, gender, sexuality, etc) and how these intersect; learning to communicate your needs and to advocate; navigating systems (workplaces, schools, families and everything in between!); and whatever feels most meaningful to you.

You may appear to be functioning well on the outside. But inside, something still feels unresolved. You've done the reading, perhaps even the therapy, and yet the patterns persist. The weight hasn't lifted. Something deeper is asking to be met. I'm a Clinical Psychologist offering online therapy across Australia, working at the intersection of trauma healing and depth psychology. I draw on EMDR, Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems and somatic approaches to work with the parts of you that talking alone hasn't reached. Not just processing what happened, but exploring who you are becoming.

Leederville, WA 6007
I am a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist and Clinical/Counselling Psychologist. The internal world is a complex place, and the challenges each of us face reflect that complexity. Psychotherapy can help people to understand themselves deeply – their feelings, dreams, needs, and struggles. My experience is that the more we understand ourselves, the better we become at making authentic and creative decisions in life and in relationships. Many of my patients have faced early life adversities and now work hard to generate self esteem or to navigate issues relating to identity, daily living, and intimate relationships.

I strongly believe that every person has a purpose and set of skills/strengths they bring into this world; however, that sometimes inconvenient/negative circumstances or unhealthy relationships can derail this potential by planting a seed of self-doubt into our minds. Regardless of where it applies to an individual's life (e.g. marriage, career, etc.), it would be my privilege to help clients along the way to achieving their life goals/vision by helping them identify and deal with any stumbling blocks in their way. Life loves to throw curveballs (it wouldn't be interesting if it didn't), but I'd love to prepare my clients for them!

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
