In Person + Online Therapy Australia-wide

I am a Lacanian psychoanalyst. Lacan's psychoanalysis is based in the idea that the unconscious is structured like language. What you say reveals the unconscious processes that underlie any issues that are problematic for you, or recur. Recurring problems especially, are well resolved when you work within the realms of psychoanalysis.

Psychoanalyst

Carlton North VIC, Mount Martha VIC

In Person + Telehealth

There are innumerable ways of recounting a life, and a childhood that may seem like a fraught love affair. Uniquely, psychoanalysis takes us to the core of how these accounts are told and retold. It is a cure that allows other spaces to arise, owes nothing to conformity and risks finding out the true desire of the person seeking treatment.
