Eva R. Kimonis is a psychiatrist based in Sydney, NSW, Australia. She works with people who are dealing with challenging patterns of behaviour and relationships, especially when emotions feel hard to manage day to day.
Her clinical work includes antisocial personality disorder and oppositional defiant disorder (ODD). These conditions can show up in different ways, like anger that flares up fast, ongoing conflict at home or school, and trouble following through on rules. At times, it can also affect how someone feels inside—things like guilt, frustration, or a sense of being stuck.
For ODD, she often supports children and teenagers, and helps carers and families make sense of what is going on. The goal is usually to reduce blow-ups, improve routines, and find ways to respond that don’t just push the problem around. With antisocial personality disorder, the work can be more complex, and sessions may focus on safer choices, accountability, and building skills that help someone deal with stress without harming themselves or others.
Eva’s approach stays practical and grounded. In many cases, the most helpful steps are the ones that can be used in real life—at school, at home, and in day-to-day situations where things get tense. She also understands that progress can be slow, and that different supports may be needed as circumstances change.
