About of Tamara May

Tamara May is a Psychiatrist based in Parkville, VIC. Her clinic is located at 50 Flemington Rd, Parkville VIC 3052, Australia.


Dr May looks after adults and young people who are dealing with mental health and wellbeing concerns. In many cases, that can include Autism Spectrum Disorder and Asperger’s Syndrome, where support needs to be practical and fit the person’s everyday life. She also works with people who have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), including when symptoms affect sleep, school or work, or day-to-day routines.


Depression is another big part of her work. For people experiencing major depression, things can feel heavy and slow down daily life. Dr May focuses on listening, making sense of what is going on, and working through options that can help someone start feeling more like themselves again.


Mental health is not one-size-fits-all. At times, a person may have more than one thing happening at once, like ADHD symptoms alongside low mood, or challenges that come with social and communication differences. Dr May takes a steady, calm approach and tries to understand the whole picture rather than just one label.


Appointments usually start with getting clear on what’s been happening, when things began, and what support has (or hasn’t) helped so far. From there, care can involve planning next steps and talking through treatment options. The goal is not just to manage symptoms, but to help people build strategies for life at home, at work, and in the community.


If someone is feeling overwhelmed, unsure, or stuck, it can help to have a professional who can explain things in plain language and keep the plan realistic. Dr May aims to do that, with conversations that are clear and grounded, and decisions made with the person’s needs in mind.


Education, research, and clinical trial details are not listed here. What is clear is the range of conditions Dr May cares for, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, Asperger’s Syndrome, ADHD, and major depression, and the focus stays on helping people move forward in a way that feels achievable.
