Dom Phillips

Dom (he/him) is a Provisional Psychologist with more than nine years’ experience working across the disability and mental health sectors. He provides evidence-based therapy for children, adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, neurodivergence, life transitions and other mental health concerns.

Dom takes a collaborative, strengths-based approach to therapy, helping clients build confidence, develop practical coping strategies, and work towards meaningful goals. He believes therapy is most effective when built on trust, respect and an understanding of each person’s unique experiences and strengths.

His therapeutic approach draws on a range of evidence-based therapies, including:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
• Motivational Interviewing (MI)

Dom is openly neurodivergent and has a particular interest in supporting neurodivergent adolescents and adults. He has contributed to research through the Olga Tennison Autism Research Centre (OTARC), exploring the importance of neurodivergent social identity. He also enjoys working with young men as they navigate the transition to adulthood, supporting emotional awareness, healthy relationships and positive approaches to masculinity.

Outside of work, Dom enjoys playing and watching sport, supporting the St Kilda Football Club and the Hobart Hurricanes, training for marathons, playing guitar, and attempting to write funny songs.
