Andrew J. Lewis is a psychiatrist based at 90 South Street, Murdoch WA 6150. He works with people who are dealing with mental health changes that can feel overwhelming, especially when life is already stressful.
In day-to-day care, Andrew focuses on conditions like major depression and bipolar disorder. He also looks after people experiencing postpartum depression, which can show up after having a baby and make everyday life feel heavy. At times, it can affect sleep, motivation, and the way someone connects with others. Getting support early can make a real difference.
Andrew also works with antisocial personality disorder and other challenging patterns of behaviour. These issues can come with strong emotions, risky choices, and strained relationships. Sessions are usually grounded and practical, aiming to help people slow things down, understand what drives them, and plan safer ways forward.
Mental health doesn’t always sit in one neat box. Over time, Andrew may also support people and families affected by serious health events and early life medical concerns, like cerebral hypoxia and intrauterine growth restriction. When there’s been a difficult pregnancy or birth, it can change how someone’s mind and body cope later on. In many cases, this can also link with mood, behaviour, and stress.
He can also be involved in situations where there are medical concerns in infancy, such as high blood pressure in infants. While these are medical topics first, the emotional impact on carers can be big. People often want clear explanations, steady guidance, and a plan that feels doable.
Andrew’s approach is calm and direct. He listens to what is happening now, not just what happened in the past. Then, in many cases, he helps work out what support might help most—whether that’s through talking strategies, medication discussions where needed, or linking in with other services.
