““Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength.””
My name is Brendan McMahon (he, him, his), thank you for visiting my website. I am a registered psychologist and a psychotherapist in private practice at Silverton Place on Wickham Terrace at Spring Hill in the Brisbane CBD. I am also a Psychology Board of Australia approved supervisor, providing supervision to psychology trainees undertaking the 4+1 and 5+1 pathways to registration as well as collegial consultations for professional and personal development. I work in a compassionate, gentle, and empathic manner to help you understand yourself better and feel better at the same time.
I conduct adult psychotherapy and see persons aged 18 and older. I have a particular interest in providing long-term psychoanalytic psychotherapy (sometimes called psychodynamic psychotherapy), but I also conduct shorter-term psychotherapy that is more symptom-focussed, where appropriate.
This type of therapy is best suited for people who place a high value on personal growth and want to understand themselves better and what motivates them.
It is out of this understanding and insight that people come to perceive themselves differently and more realistically and can develop new ways of thinking, feeling, behaving, and relating to others. It is a chance to break out of old patterns of habitually behaving, improve relationships with self and others, develop deeper meaning in life, find increased self-acceptance and consequently greater life satisfaction.
