Ms Robyn Adler

Psychotherapist

I am a Clinical Counsellor and Psychotherapist working from a psychoanalytic psychodynamic perspective addressing grief, loss, anxiety and general life trauma.

About Me

I help clients explore the deeper roots of their experiences, offering a psychoanalytic psychodynamic perspective. This approach is especially beneficial for those navigating grief, loss, anxiety, or general life trauma. We work together to understand how past experiences and unconscious patterns might influence present difficulties. This reflective process helps you process complex emotions and foster lasting change, moving towards greater emotional stability and understanding.

Approach

I focus on what lies beneath surface symptoms, attending to the stories and habitual patterns that shape how you respond emotionally. In Sydney and via secure English-language online sessions, I keep a steady, reflective pace that allows time to notice small shifts. Sessions combine close listening, respectful curiosity and gentle interpretation, and I often offer short, practical experiments to try between meetings so insights become lived changes. This way of working tends to help adults facing bereavement, burnout, relational hurt or past abuse.
