Helping people achieve meaningful change

Practice Director Julie Cochrane as been practicing ISTDP since 1995, She founded Dynamic Psychotherapy in Carlton, Victoria, with the aim of bringing the benefits of ISTDP to as many people as possible.

25 Therapists, 2 Buildings, 1 Mission

Since then, Dynamic Pyschotherapy has grown significantly, and now operates across two buildings in Carlton, just outside of the Melbourne CBD. The team and footprint may have grown, but the mission remains the same – helping people achieve transformational change through therapy.
