About me
Hi, I’m Kealey, a Clinical Psychologist and one of the Directors at Seed Psychology. I’ve worked in mental health for over 20 years, across hospitals, forensic services, and private practice. My work is grounded in a deep respect for the complexity of human experience. I’m especially interested in how our early relationships influence how we see ourselves and connect with others. I work with a broad range of concerns, but I’m particularly passionate about supporting people who feel impacted by past relationships, especially when these have shaped their sense of self, emotional safety, or patterns of connection. Many of my clients are working to build self-worth, break entrenched patterns, or soften the inner critic. Together, we make space for insight, strength, and self-compassion to emerge. I also have a strong interest in later identification of neurodivergence, particularly in women, and the unique ways it can shape identity, relationships, and wellbeing.
How I will help you
Therapy with me is warm, thoughtful, and insight-oriented. I draw on cognitive, experiential, and emotion-focused models, and I’m especially interested in the patterns that can emerge in relationships, past and present. Sometimes, this means gently naming patterns that may no longer serve you-not to judge them, but to understand where they came from and what you need now. We work at your pace, but always toward a greater sense of authenticity, agency, and connection.
When I’m not working
I find joy and creative energy through music and performance, particularly singing. I also feel most grounded when I’m moving — whether that’s hiking a trail, lifting weights, or spending time outdoors. These parts of my life help me feel grounded, and support the balance and care I bring into my work.
Freqeuently asked questions
-
You do not need a referral to see a Psychologist at Seed Psychology. However, if you’d like to claim a Medicare rebate, you will need a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) from your GP. With a MHCP, you may be eligible for rebates on up to 10 sessions per calendar year. These sessions can be used at any psychology clinic of your choice. To access Medicare psychology rebates, book an appointment with your GP and ask for a Mental Health Care Plan. Most referrals begin with 6 sessions, with the option to access 4 more after a review. Referrals can also be provided by a psychiatrist or paediatrician.
