WELCOME TO


Relationships and past experiences can leave deep marks, shaping how we see ourselves and others. When trust has been shaken or connection feels distant, it can touch the most vulnerable parts of who we are. Healing becomes possible in a space where we feel understood, safe, and supported to rediscover clarity, strength, and connection.
Kylie Walls, Psychologist
About Me
I am a Registered Psychologist (Psychology Board of Australia) and a member of the Australian Association of Psychologists. I work with individuals and couples who are seeking to understand and shift the patterns that contribute to conflict, emotional distance, or disconnection in their relationships.
I’m particularly interested in how our early experiences shape the ways we think, feel, cope, and relate to others. The strategies that once helped us feel safe or connected can sometimes become hard to shift, especially when there has been trauma, relational hurt, or experiences that have affected trust or emotional safety.
In my therapeutic work, I draw on Schema Therapy (for both individuals and couples), the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and other evidence-based approaches to support meaningful change. My approach is trauma-informed and attachment-focused, with an awareness of how faith, culture, and community can play a supportive or complicated role in people’s lives.
I aim to offer a warm, collaborative, and steady space to explore these experiences — supporting people to rebuild safety, deepen connection, and move toward clarity and hope.
Services I offer:
Mental Health Support
I provide online therapy for a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, and burnout. With a special interest in trauma recovery and anxiety-related disorders, I support individuals navigating OCD, intrusive thoughts, panic attacks, and scrupulosity (religious OCD). I also work with those experiencing complex trauma, grief, stress related to work or study, and the ongoing impact of challenging life circumstances. Each person’s situation is unique, and I offer tailored therapy that addresses both current difficulties and the deeper patterns that may be holding them back.
My primary modality is Schema Therapy—a compassionate, in-depth approach to healing trauma and long-standing emotional patterns. I also incorporate a range of other evidence-based, trauma-informed therapies including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR). This integrative approach allows therapy to be personalised to each client’s needs, promoting genuine healing, resilience, and lasting change.
Recovery from Abusive Relationships & Trauma
I offer compassionate support for individuals recovering from abusive relationships, domestic violence, emotional abuse, and trauma. My therapeutic approach is informed by research in coercive control, which deepens my understanding of the complex ways power and control can affect survivors. I work with individuals experiencing PTSD, complex trauma, and the effects of religious trauma, helping them to rebuild self-esteem, establish healthy boundaries, and regain emotional safety.
If you are processing experiences of adult clergy sexual abuse, institutional betrayal, or the pain of marriage breakdown and betrayal, I provide a safe, confidential space to explore these wounds and begin the journey of healing. Support is also available for those navigating workplace bullying and other complex relational dynamics, where trust, belonging, and safety may have been compromised.
I draw on evidence-based therapies suitable for trauma and abuse recovery, including Schema Therapy and EMDR, offering tailored support to help you reclaim your life with resilience and hope.
Faith and Wellbeing Support
Faith can be a powerful source of meaning, resilience, and connection, but it can also bring unique challenges. For some, faith provides comfort and strength during difficult times. For others, it may be tied to painful experiences such as spiritual abuse, harmful community dynamics, or the pressures of ministry and leadership. At Curated Mind Psychology, therapy is offered with sensitivity to the role faith and values can play in both wellbeing and struggle.
Kylie provides professional, evidence-based support for people of faith seeking counselling that honours their spiritual beliefs alongside their mental health needs. Online Christian counselling and faith-sensitive counselling is available for those who prefer to work with a psychologist who understands their faith. This includes working with individuals facing anxiety, trauma, depression, or identity struggles, as well as faith leaders experiencing the weight of responsibility, conflict, or ministry burnout. She also supports those navigating the impact of faith-based communities, helping them process difficult or harmful religious experiences while moving toward clarity and recovery.
Therapy for Couples
Relationships can bring joy and meaning, but they can also face challenges such as communication breakdown, ongoing conflict, or the pain of a marriage breakdown. Kylie provides professional relationship support to help couples strengthen their connection, resolve difficulties, and move forward with clarity and hope.
Kylie draws on Schema Therapy for Couples to uncover deep emotional patterns formed early in life that influence how partners relate and respond to each other. She also integrates Gottman Couples Therapy, a practical, evidence-based approach that offers tools to improve communication, manage conflict more effectively, and build stronger emotional bonds. This combination of approaches provides a powerful foundation for creating healthier, more resilient relationships.
In addition to ongoing couples therapy, Kylie offers pre-marriage counselling to support couples preparing for long-term commitment, as well as short-term relationship therapy for those seeking guidance around specific concerns.
