Family psychologist in Hawthorn Victoria

“A little less than a year ago, I reached a really low point after a series of unfortunate events in my life. Physically, emotionally and mentally drained, I didn’t know if I could find the strength to continue living. Out of sheer desperation, I finally reached out to Robyn. It was the best decision I ever made. Over the past 10 months, Robyn has helped me experience growth that for me was inconceivable. In a loving and compassionate manner, she has helped me to make sense of the things that led to bouts of depression as well as the traumatic events and family history that contributed to my life. Most importantly, Robyn has taught me how to change unhelpful behaviors and replace them with positive, healthy, self-affirming ones. In less than a year, Robyn has positively influenced almost every aspect of my life. As a result, my marriage and family relationships have improved and I am finally learning what it means to be happy and healthy. I am learning to identify my goals and how to go after them. I totally attribute my growth to working with Robyn. Whether it is in your personal or professional life, Robyn has a talent in her ability to assist you with identifying (and sometimes just acknowledging) the source of your pain or whatever it is that may be holding you back. More importantly, she accompanies you and provides the tools necessary to complete the journey. That is Robyn’s gift to her clients. N.S. - Melbourne --------------------------------- At certain points, there are people we meet who touch our lives and we are forever changed and forever grateful for having met them. Robyn Menzies is one such person in my life. A mutual friend introduced me to Robyn during a time of deep personal crisis and turmoil. I knew I needed my life to change but I did not know how to do that. I did not have the emotional tools, nor understand the process of how to change my responses to my circumstances. This is where Robyn came in. She helped me develop an arsenal to deal with the joys, the grief, relationships and everyday challenges in life. In the more than two years that I have worked with Robyn, I have come to appreciate and value her expertise, empathy, insight and true dedication. She tells it like it is and sometimes before, you are ready to hear it. Robyn has been extremely valuable in helping me identify and build on my strengths. With her support, I have also learned how to identify areas to work on allowing for more personal growth. Robyn is an integral part of my support team and I recommend her without reservation. She has been a true blessing in my life, helping me to maintain my balance and embrace my new beginnings. Forever Grateful -------------------------------------------------------- When I met Robyn, I was in a very abusive and rather toxic relationship with a man, which eroded much of my confidence and self-image. She helped me to see how many events in my life had brought me to that place, as well as allowing me to discover a much stronger, confident and self-loving person within myself. I have been fortunate to work with her for several years now and she has helped me become the best ‘ME’ I can. She always senses when I may be stumbling, weighed down by negativity, and offers kind and gentle insights that are beacons of light in one's dark thoughts. She always knows exactly the right questions to ask, or offer the tools I need, so that I can see the positive steps that I need to take, which are often right in front of me. No matter how I may have felt upon entering her office, ‘I ALWAYS’ feel ten times better when I leave. I truly feel that so much of the success in my personal and business life has come from her helping me to see and realize the important uniqueness of who I am. I could never thank her enough. S.B.”

“The team at Peaceful mind are super lovely and helpful! I cannot recommend Taash from peaceful mind enough, she is simply amazing. She is so approachable, compassionate and understanding and certainly SO good at what she does. I am still only a small way into my wellness journey but Taash has been so supportive and has really advocated for me and has helped & guided me to take some really big steps. Her kindness, humour and genuine nature make her one of the best professionals in this field.”

She actively listened, got me to think and come to my own conclusions, and also provided me with effective strategies to manage my concerns. I would wholeheartedly recommend Rae. The booking and payment process was easy to navigate and manage. The fees are reasonable. Thanks!”
