Miss Myah Sylvan Devlin is a Psychologist based in South Melbourne. She works from 183 Bank Street, South Melbourne VIC 3205. People come to her for help with everyday things that have been getting on top of them, like stress, worry, low mood, and the tricky emotions that can build up after tough life events.
Her work includes individual therapy sessions, couples counselling, and family therapy. In individual sessions, the focus is on making sense of what’s going on, and then finding practical ways to cope. At times, it can feel like your thoughts keep looping, or your mood drops and you can’t quite shake it. Therapy can help you slow that down and build more helpful habits.
For couples, the goal is usually clearer communication and less back-and-forth. Many couples want help with conflict, trust issues, feeling disconnected, or not knowing how to move forward after ongoing stress. Sessions are a space to hear each other properly and work on shared ways to handle problems, not just argue about them.
Family therapy is there for when things feel strained at home. That might be about parent-child tension, changes in family routines, or bigger issues that affect everyone. Over time, even small shifts in how people talk and react can make a real difference.
Miss Devlin also uses CBT, which stands for cognitive-behavioural therapy. It’s a common, skills-focused approach. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. For example, when anxiety shows up, it can lead to avoidance and that can make things worse. CBT helps you spot those patterns and try new ways of thinking and responding, step by step. She also supports stress management strategies, like learning to notice early warning signs and using tools that actually fit into real life.
If you’re not sure where to start, that’s okay. Therapy often begins with talking through what’s been happening, what you’ve tried already, and what you want to change. From there, the sessions stay practical, grounded, and focused on what you can do between appointments.
Miss Devlin’s approach is calm and down-to-earth. The aim is to help you feel more in control, whether that’s managing day-to-day pressure, improving relationships, or getting through periods where everything feels a bit harder than it should.
