Pip Dean

Pip is a Clinical Psychologist working in our Logic Lounge Psychology & Psychiatry Drummoyne. She is passionate about supporting people to navigate life’s challenges and create meaningful change. Originally from New Zealand, she is registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and is a member of the Australian Psychological Society (APS). She holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, a Master of Science in Forensic Psychology, and a Postgraduate Diploma in Clinical Psychology.

Pip views therapy as a collaborative partnership. She brings curiosity, empathy, and validation to her work, aiming to truly understand each client’s needs and worldview. Therapy with Pip is an opportunity to build self-awareness, strengthen resilience, and develop practical strategies that foster growth and wellbeing.

Her approach is flexible and tailored, drawing on evidence-based modalities such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion–Focused Therapy (EFT), and Compassion–Focused Therapy (CFT).

She has also completed Level 1 Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) training, an effective approach for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other distressing life experiences. She has a particular interest in delivered EMDR to clients.

Pip works with clients on a broad range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma responses, substance and alcohol use, relationship difficulties, and stress management. She has a particular interest in supporting people in the emerging adulthood stage of life (20s – 30s), when many are navigating identity, relationships, and major life transitions.

Outside the therapy room, Pip has an appetite for adventure. She enjoys diving, travelling, hiking, and camping, and rarely misses a chance to spend time in the sun and outdoors. These passions reflect her belief in balance, exploration, and connecting with what matters most in life.
