Couples & relationship therapy in Melbourne — online and in person
Secure online sessions for Melbourne — and in-person work in Mornington.
Share a few details and I’ll respond with available times. I’m currently welcoming a small number of new couples in Melbourne and online.
Is couples therapy in Melbourne right for us?
Therapy Atelier is a couples-only psychotherapy practice working with Melbourne couples in two ways: secure online sessions that fit around city schedules, and in-person work — including multi-day intensives — at the practice in Mornington, an hour down the Peninsula. Ninety-minute sessions, complete discretion, couples and nothing else.
Melbourne couples who want relationship therapy with depth rather than a quick fix:
- professionals whose conflict has calcified into distance
- couples rebuilding after an affair
- partners weighing whether to stay or separate
- busy households where the relationship keeps landing last
Online sessions mean the work can actually happen — no commute, no waiting list logic, the same structure as in-person work.
How I work with couples
I’m Tumee Hugginson — a psychotherapist and couples therapist with Gottman Method training at Level 3 and a Jungian psychoanalytic background. Sessions run ninety minutes, usually weekly, drawing on depth psychology, attachment science and the Gottman Method.
For couples who prefer to concentrate the work, two- and three-day intensives in Mornington are often the better shape — many Melbourne couples pair an intensive with online follow-up. My work is grounded in Gottman-informed and psychodynamic depth approaches.
What sessions look like
- A couples-only practice, not a general clinic.
- Ninety-minute sessions, not rushed hours.
- Online work held to the same standard of care and confidentiality as the consulting room.
And honesty about the work itself: outcomes in therapy are never guaranteed — what you get is serious, structured attention to your relationship.
