Adam Dalton
Clinical psychologist in Carlton North working with adults to navigate life transitions, move through relationship challenges, and shift patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving that no longer serve them.

About Me
My name is Adam (he/him). I'm a clinical psychologist and Level 2 Internal Family Systems trained therapist. I practice in Melbourne's Carlton North, where I work with individuals who are wanting to relate to themselves in new and more compassionate ways.
My professional interests include:
-
Supporting LGBTQ+ individuals navigate the unique experiences they can encounter.
-
Exploring the impact of relational satisfaction on mental health, offering a non-judgemental and sex-positive space to address sex and relationship difficulties.
-
Helping individuals shift patterns of critical self-talk, perfectionism, procrastination, and people pleasing.
Although I've trained in a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Schema Therapy, my work is now primarily informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS) - an experiential approach that supports you to meet your experiences with curiosity and compassion, helping you feel more clear and connected to yourself and others.
