Dr Adrienne Brown
Clinical Psychologist
B.A. (Hons), DPsych (Clinical)

Adi is a Clinical Psychologist who has been practicing as a psychologist in Victoria for over 10 years. She has experience supporting people throughout the perinatal period – from conception through to parenthood. Her passion for perinatal and infant mental health grew following her own transition to motherhood. It is founded upon an awareness of how complex this time is, and how difficult it can be to navigate the various challenges that arise.

Adi’s personal values of openness, honesty, non-judgment, and respect are central to her practice. She is committed to providing her clients with the right (evidence-based, individually-tailored) support to enable them to regain hope, trust, and confidence in themselves and their future. She uses a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy, Schema Therapy and attachment theory depending on her client’s needs.
