Who is Kaye Phillips-Glynn?
A practitioner
rooted in depth & science
Hi, I'm Kaye, a Provisional Psychologist and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner based in Bundoora, Melbourne. I believe that true healing comes from addressing the mind, body, and the deeper layers of the self as interconnected parts of the whole.
With a background spanning psychology, somatic therapy, and depth work, I bring a genuinely integrative approach to each client. Whether we are working with nervous system dysregulation, the patterns held in the unconscious, or the behaviours keeping you stuck, the work we do together will be collaborative, rigorous, and deeply personal.
I'm here to remind you that healing isn't about fixing something that's broken. It's about coming home to yourself.
Qualifications
As a Provisional Psychologist, I am employed by RM Therapy and practise under the supervision of a Board-approved supervisor, in accordance with my registration with AHPRA. All clients engage as clients of RM Therapy.
My Approach
Holistic, integrated,
evidence-based
With a strong background in Somatic Experiencing®, depth psychology, and behavioural therapy, I embrace a holistic approach, empowering individuals and supporting them in their wellness journeys. No single lens captures the full complexity of a human life.
To be clear about what's what: Somatic Experiencing and behavioural approaches are trauma-informed and evidence-based. Depth psychology is an interpretive lens I draw on alongside them, not a replacement for them. I'll always be upfront about which we're using, and why, for your particular situation.
"I believe our capacity to grow and adapt doesn't disappear. It simply waits for us to reconnect with it."
Somatic Experiencing®
A holistic approach to healing trauma that recognises the profound connection between mind and body. SE® works with what Dr Peter Levine calls the "felt sense". Clients move between sensations of distress and safety, allowing painful memories to be processed in a calm, resourced state. The body's innate wisdom leads the way.
Depth Psychology
An invitation to listen deeply to the recurring patterns that call for your attention: the themes that play out in your relationships, struggles, and joys. We explore what repeats, not as coincidence, but as meaning waiting to be recognised, so old patterns become easier to notice and to choose differently.
Behavioural Therapy
Understanding why we do what we do. Behavioural therapy explores the relationship between actions, thoughts, and environment, uncovering the "why" behind a behaviour so we can rewrite the "how" of our responses. Practical, focused, and compassionate. Small, consistent shifts can build into meaningful change over time.
Going Deeper
The patterns beneath
the surface
Beneath our everyday thoughts lies the subconscious, the place where recurring patterns take hold, and the roots of "why you are the way you are" reside. Depth psychology invites you to listen to these patterns, not as coincidences, but as messages from within.
This work isn't about fixing yourself. It's about knowing yourself deeply, with curiosity and compassion, at whatever pace feels right for you.

Getting Started
What to expect
when you reach out
Reaching out is simple. Send a short message about what you're looking for, and I'll take it from there.
Get in Touch
Send a message about what you're seeking support for. I read every enquiry personally and respond within 48 hours to talk through whether we're a good fit.
Confirmation
Once we've confirmed fit, I'll offer you a session time (or waitlist details if needed) along with an intake form to complete beforehand, so you can begin with clarity and confidence.
First Session
We begin by establishing safety, building rapport, and mapping your history and goals. The first session sets the foundation for all that follows.
Ongoing Work
Sessions are typically fortnightly or monthly. Healing unfolds in layers. We move at the pace that genuinely serves you.
FAQ
Common
questions
Somatic Experiencing is a gentle, body-based approach to working with trauma and stress. Rather than asking you to relive difficult events, it supports the nervous system to move out of survival states and back toward regulation, working with the felt sense of the body at a pace that feels safe.
Sessions are seated and fully clothed, and I don't use touch. We might pause together to notice a sensation, track your breath, or gently follow what your body is doing as we talk, there's no set exercise you have to do. Nothing happens without your say-so; you're always in control of the pace.
Somatic Experiencing is an established, trauma-informed approach with a growing research base. I draw on it alongside evidence-based psychological practice, and I'll always be honest with you about what the work can and cannot offer.
Talk therapy works mainly with thoughts and narrative. Somatic Experiencing also listens to the body: sensations, nervous-system states, and the felt sense. This allows change to settle at a physiological level, not only an intellectual one. The two work beautifully together.
No referral is needed. You're welcome to reach out directly. As a Provisional Psychologist I'm not able to offer Medicare rebates, so sessions are private; I'll always be transparent about fees before we begin.
All sessions can be conducted online via secure, confidential video conferencing. You'll receive the same level of personalised care as you would in person. Research supports the effectiveness of online therapy for many presentations.
Standard sessions are 50 minutes, with 75-minute sessions available for more extended work. Both allow space to integrate before re-engaging with your day.
The frequency varies depending on your needs. Some clients benefit from weekly sessions, others from fortnightly or monthly check-ins. We'll determine the best rhythm during our initial session and adjust as needed over time.
I require 24 hours' notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations or non-attendance will incur the full session fee. This policy protects the integrity of our work together.
If you're looking to move through challenges, understand yourself more deeply, or create lasting change, my approach may be a meaningful fit. Get in touch and I'll help you determine whether we're well-matched before we commit to working together.
