Rae Ellis is a psychologist based in Burwood, VIC. You’ll find the practice at 20 Banksia Street, Burwood VIC 3125.
Rae works with people at different stages of life. That can be anyone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or just not coping as well as they want to. In many cases, it’s about stress, relationship strain, family changes, or patterns of behaviour that are hard to shift on your own. At times, people also come in after big life events, when everything feels a bit off and they want a calmer way forward.
Sessions are available for individual therapy, where you can talk through what’s going on and work on practical changes. Rae also offers couples counselling, which is often helpful when communication has broken down, conflict keeps repeating, or trust feels shaky. Family therapy is also available for times when the whole household needs support, not just one person. If group support feels like the right fit, group therapy is part of the service too.
Rae’s work includes behavioural therapy, along with talking-based support. That usually means looking closely at what happens day to day, what triggers certain reactions, and what steps can be taken to create better habits and healthier responses. The goal is simple: help you build skills you can use between appointments, so things don’t stay stuck.
Training and education are grounded in psychology practice, with a focus on evidence-based approaches that are meant to be practical, not confusing. Over time, Rae aims to make therapy feel steady and doable, with clear goals and a plan you can follow.
Clinical trials and research links aren’t something that are usually part of the day-to-day conversation, but Rae’s approach stays focused on what helps in real life—things that can be tried, tested, and adjusted as you go.
