I’m Lucy Tiley (Lucy, she/her) - Clinical Psychologist, and owner of Skylight Psychology, which is based on Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung country in Naarm/Melbourne. Skylight Psychology operates in Fitzroy and Carlton locations, and also provides Telehealth services for individuals based regionally/remotely. 

Commencing therapy can often coincide with a time when we are feeling our most vulnerable. I feel privileged to do this work, and always aim to foster a calm and non-judgemental space, where you can feel safe to come as you are.

Hello, and welcome.

About Lucy - (she/her)

BSci, BPsych (Hons), MPsych (Clinical), MAPS, MAAPi

I provide evidence-based psychological services to adults and young people (16+) experiencing a broad range of challenges - whether that be a relationship breakdown, coping with sudden life changes, or related to mental illness. As I say to my clients, you never have to justify why you are here.

I’ve worked across a range of mental health settings for the past six years - including outpatient sleep clinics, university clinics, private practice, and remote settings including  Aboriginal-controlled community health settings across the Central Desert and Mparntwe (Alice Springs).

I assist with a range of challenges, some of which include:

```
Neurodivergence (ADHD, Autism) 
```
```
Adjustment to life stressors
```
```
Anxiety disorders & depression
```
```
Perfectionism & self-criticism
```
```
Relational difficulties
```
```
Stress, burnout
```
```
Sleep disturbance & disorders
```

Trauma (such as PTSD, complex PTSD, relational)

(You can read more about the presentations and full list of difficulties I work with, via the 'Services' tab).

Therapeutic style:

My therapeutic style is warm, down-to-earth, and direct. I practice with respect, integrity, and compassion, and take an integrative approach in selecting evidence-based treatments depending on each clients' needs, preferences, and circumstances. One of my key priorities is to ensure I am providing neuroaffirming, LGBTIQA+ inclusive and trauma-informed care to my clients, and fostering a safe and positive experience of therapy.

To learn more the services and treatments I provide, including fees/location information, please see the 'Services' page, to assess if you think we might be a good fit. I understand the importance of finding a good therapeutic fit, and offer a free 15-minute introductory call. To get in touch, please reach out via the 'New Clients' section.

Other:

Outside of psychology work, I can be found outdoors on some form of trail or bike, dawdling inside Readings, and experimenting with film photography (which you'll see snippets of throughout this website, featuring beautiful parts of unceded palawa and Big River country of Lutruwita/Tasmania).
