Elie Koullacas Child Psychologist

I am a warm and approachable psychologist passionate about helping my clients achieve their goals through evidence-based therapies. I excel at using games and engaging conversations to connect with children and teens, supporting them in processing their experiences and building new skills. I am also committed to empowering parents and carers to navigate challenging times and foster their children's development. Additionally, I have been commended for my collaborative consultations with teachers to enhance support for my clients.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Educational and Developmental Psychology from Monash University. I provide therapy to children, adolescents, and their families, utilising approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and play-based therapy. I also incorporate parenting training into my work and am particularly interested in supporting pre-school and primary school-aged children.

As a Psychologist working with children and adolescents, I’m here to provide a safe and compassionate space where your child can express themselves, build resilience, and develop skills to face life’s ups and downs with confidence. For parents and carers, I offer practical tools and strategies to help you support your child through these times and look after yourself.

Together, we can create a path toward brighter days for you, your child and your family.
