  • Our approach

    At Self Psychology, therapy is tailored to your unique experiences, values, and needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.

Melissa's style is warm, respectful, and grounded in evidence-based practice, working alongside you to build insight, expand coping strategies, and support meaningful change. The focus is always on keeping your safety, preferences, and goals at the centre of the process, at a pace that feels comfortable and manageable. Sessions are available both in-person and via telehealth, making support accessible wherever you are in Australia.
