Dr Luke Henderson is a clinical psychologist and psychologist based in Richmond, VIC. You’ll find the practice at 232 Lenox Street, Richmond VIC 3121.
Dr Henderson works with people in a way that feels steady and practical. Sessions are set up for real-life situations, not just theory. For many people, that means talking through what’s been going on, figuring out what’s getting in the way, and then working on small steps that can actually fit into daily life.
He offers individual therapy sessions, which can suit when you’re dealing with things like stress, anxiety, low mood, or changes in how you’re coping. If you’ve tried to push things down or power through, therapy can help sort out what’s underneath and give you some tools to move forward.
Dr Henderson also provides couples therapy sessions. Relationship problems can build up slowly, and sometimes it’s not one big fight—it’s the same patterns showing up again and again. In couples sessions, the focus is often on better communication, understanding each other’s point of view, and finding ways to handle conflict without it taking over everything.
Family therapy sessions are another part of his work. Family life can be busy and complicated, and it’s normal for tensions to show up around routines, parenting, boundaries, or shifting roles. Sessions can help families slow things down, talk more clearly, and make changes that feel workable for everyone.
There are also behavioural therapy sessions. This usually means looking closely at habits and routines—what you do, when you do it, and what keeps it going. Over time, people often find it easier to try new responses, especially when they can see what actually affects their mood and daily functioning.
Dr Henderson uses an evidence-informed approach and pays attention to what’s most helpful for each person, not a one-size-fits-all plan. At times, progress can feel quick. Other times, it’s slower, and that’s still progress.
If you’re thinking about booking, it can help to bring what you want to work on, even if you’re not sure how to explain it yet. A good first step is simply starting the conversation and seeing where things can be improved.
