Reimagine what?
Welcome to Reimagine Psychology, a practice shaped by two psychologists, Tristan and Austin, who both have lived experience with ADHD.​​​
​
​ADHD isn’t just part of our story. It is central to how we think, how we relate, and how we’ve designed this space. We have shaped Reimagine Psychology to offer something different: a practice that genuinely understands neurodiversity, not just from textbooks, but from the inside out.
Our work focuses on helping people better understand themselves, clarifying what works, what doesn’t, and how to communicate their needs in ways that feel authentic and sustainable. We believe that insight, self-compassion, and practical tools can lead to real change.

Support beyond a diagnosis
We know what it’s like to navigate a world that isn’t always built for differently wired minds. We also know the strengths that can come from thinking outside the box, using creativity, engaging passions, mindfully channeling hyperfocus, as well as trusting your intuition. We want to help others access and embrace those strengths while making space for the very real challenges that can show up, too.​
​
Both Tristan and Austin actively draw on their lived experiences with ADHD to enrich team culture and clinical practice. We heavily encourage psychologists to actively engage in case consultations and continuous professional development so that we bring best practice and care to our community. By bridging evidence-based psychological interventions with lived experience, Reimagine Psychology models a reflective, neuro-affirming approach that supports long term mental health outcomes and professional growth.
If you’re looking for a space that gets it, a space where you won’t have to justify your experience or mask your challenges, you’re in the right place. We work towards a world where:​​​
Everyone, regardless of their background, will feel empowered to be who they want to be and know that they are not alone.
Our Promise
Everything we do at Reimagine Psychology Melbourne is guided by our vision, values, and promise to our clients and community. We treat everyone, regardless of their background, with compassion, integrity, respect, honesty, and dignity.
​
We won't ask you to lie down on a couch and spill your deepest secrets. Instead, we’ll work together with you to make sure that we understand where you’re at, what your world is like, and where you’d like to go.
​
We'll join you on your journey and be there in your corner with warmth, compassion, and evidence-based strategies. We promise to always strive to act within our core values and beliefs:
We're in it together
We are accountable to our clients and community to give it our all and strive towards our vision. Rain, hail, or shine, we will be there in our client's corner to work towards the best possible care for our clients and community. We invest in therapeutic relationships and will always do what's right by our clients and team.
Teamwork makes the dream work
We understand and appreciate that everyone is unique and that there is no such thing as one size fits all in client-centred care. We will always strive to work closely with our clients and their health providers so that we can deliver the best possible holistic care as a multidisciplinary team.
​
We put people first
We know we can make a genuine difference without taking ourselves too seriously. We bring enthusiasm into our work and treat each and every person with compassion, integrity, respect, honesty, and dignity (just like how we want people to treat us!).
​
Science is pretty cool!
As Psychologists, everything we do is grounded in research and evidence-based treatments. Our team are committed to continuous learning and development so we can make sure we have the right knowledge and skills to support our clients.
​
We strive to make a difference
Our ultimate goal is about making a real positive difference in the communities we work in, and through the people we work with. We are committed to giving back to our community and will donate a percentage of our fees or time every year to charity. We're just getting started in June 2021 so watch this space!
​
It's important to us that we always strive to keep our promises and act within our core values. If you notice anything that doesn't quite align with our promises, please, let us know at hello@reimaginepsychology.melbourne. We greatly value and appreciate all feedback as it helps us grow and improve the quality of care we can deliver to our clients and community.
