Recent media coverage around Brooklyn Beckham and the reported rupture in his relationship with his parents has sparked a lot of commentary — but beneath the headlines is something many people quietly recognise.

Major life transitions often expose long-standing family dynamics.

Not because anyone is “doing it wrong,” but because change asks old systems to stretch.

Healthy boundaries aren’t about cutting people off.
They’re about:
• recognising emotional limits
• redefining roles as life changes
• choosing what you carry forward — and what you don’t

You can deeply care about your family and decide what feels sustainable for you now.

🎧 Dr Kim recently spoke on about boundaries, family expectations, and mental health during big transitions — including (but not limited to) weddings.

The conversation is relevant for anyone navigating:
– guilt when asserting needs
– pressure to “keep everyone happy”
– the emotional load of change

Because boundaries aren’t rejection.
They’re information.

Watching Erin Doherty thank therapists in her acceptance speech, and speak about the honour of playing one, was a quietly powerful moment.

It’s a reminder that therapy is never a one-way process.
While therapists hold space, guide, and reflect, clients shape us too.

Every story trusted, every risk taken, every moment of honesty leaves its mark.

Therapists grow alongside the people they work with.

The learning is mutual.

The impact goes both ways.

With gratitude for the clients who allow us into their worlds, and for the privilege of walking part of the journey together.

No clinician is THAT good…

Diagnostic assessments should take time.

Not because they’re inefficient — but because PEOPLE ARE COMPLEX.

Quality assessment often requires multiple sessions to allow for:
• observation across different states and contexts
• rapport and psychological safety to reduce masking
• understanding strengths and support needs
• integration of developmental history and lived experience
• careful synthesis of information rather than reliance on a single tool

Taking time supports accuracy, fairness, and meaningful outcomes — particularly in neurodiversity-affirming practice.

If you’re considering an assessment or want to understand the process, contact the practice or book a consultation via our website.

Day 1 of EMDR Training with Caroline Burrows.

Our team has officially kicked off Day 1 of our three day EMDR training with the incredible Caroline Burrows. The team is deepening our understanding of EMDR foundations, grounding techniques, and the practical tools that support clients in processing and healing safely.

We’re excited to continue building our skills so we can bring even more evidence based, trauma informed care to our community.

More to come as we move through Day 2 and 3.

More Than Marks is a seven-week wellbeing group designed for the students of Holy Child Primary. It supports children who are strong learners but need extra help with big feelings, friendship skills, resilience, and getting along with others.

The group is run by our provisional psychologists as part of the @ Schools program, which provides free onsite support to the school and families.

This is our second semester delivering the program, and engagement has been fantastic, students are often disappointed when they miss a session due to illness or excursions.

Programs like this are made possible through the @ Schools placement initiative, which currently supports five schools across Melbourne’s northern and western suburbs.

Before you speak it, everything feels tangled.
After you share it, the colours finally make sense.

A gentle reminder that talking about what’s on your mind doesn’t make it heavier, it makes it clearer. Via

Emotions can sometimes feel like part of who we are, but they’re really just passing states like weather moving through us.

The “Be Like a Tree” an idea coined by is a metaphor which helps explain the idea of impermanence and acceptance, especially to kids.

Therapy is a process. Dr. Kimberly Mercuri explains why healing isn't a straight line.
