Dr Belinda Mackie

Psychoanalyst

“Registered Psychoanalyst with the Australian Centre for Psychoanalysis in private practice, Melbourne.”

About Me

I help individuals make sense of long-standing patterns influencing their lives. As a registered psychoanalyst, my approach offers a unique space for deep, sustained conversation. We can explore underlying experiences that shape how you feel and relate to others. This process is ideal for those seeking profound self-understanding and lasting change. My extensive training ensures a rigorous and thoughtful engagement with your inner world.

Approach

My practice centres on attentive, open-ended conversation that traces the patterns you bring and how they shape your relationships. Based in Melbourne, I work in English and offer both in-person and online sessions, arranging a steady rhythm that supports sustained reflection. Sessions move between close listening, exploring recurring themes and gently interrogating unhelpful assumptions, with opportunities to reflect between meetings when helpful. This way of working tends to suit people seeking deeper understanding of long-standing patterns and meaningful, lasting change.
