Mr Andy Symons Psychologist

Hi! I’m Andy, a clinical psychologist here with Melbourne Wellbeing Group. I work with adults experiencing obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, alcohol and substance use issues, trauma, and sleep difficulties. I take a person-centred approach to therapy. This involves getting to know you, the issues impacting your life, your therapeutic goals, the history of your concerns, problematic patterns, and developing a treatment plan that is collaborative, transparent, and evidence-based. By taking this approach, I hope to create an authentic, empathetic, safe space, where you feel comfortable sharing your difficulties, so that we can work together to improve your wellbeing. While I am trained in a range of therapies such as exposure response prevention (ERP), cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), and schema therapy (ST), I will draw on the modalities which will be most beneficial to you and your goals. If you need help and think this approach would work for you, please don’t hesitate to get in touch and call our team to book in with me on (03) 9882-8874.
