About Melbourne Dynamic Therapy

Real change begins with understanding — not just of your thoughts or behaviours, but of the emotional patterns that shape how you relate to yourself and others.

At Melbourne Dynamic Therapy, we offer a space for meaningful psychological exploration. Rooted in psychodynamic and relational approaches, our work centres on helping people understand the why beneath the what — why certain patterns keep repeating, why pain feels stuck, and why insight alone so often isn't enough.

We believe therapy is more than symptom relief. It’s a process of becoming more fully yourself — more aware, more connected, and more able to live a life that feels internally coherent and emotionally alive.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or a more general sense of being lost, therapy with us is not about advice or quick fixes. Instead, it’s a collaborative, in-depth process of understanding your emotional world — its origins, its defences, and its longings.

Our therapists work with care, curiosity, and respect for your unique experience. Together, we explore what it means to feel, to struggle, and ultimately, to grow.

What We Offer

  • Individual psychotherapy for adults seeking deeper self-understanding

  • Longer-term work that goes beyond symptom management

  • A relational, insight-oriented approach grounded in psychodynamic principles

  • Clinical supervision and consultation for mental health professionals

  • Inclusive care that recognises each person’s cultural, social, and emotional context

We welcome those who are new to therapy as well as those returning to continue longer-term work.

“Therapy is not about fixing the self — it's about understanding it, and in that understanding, creating space for something new to emerge.”
