Our Story
I thought I was too much.
Then I thought I wasn't enough.
And in this room, both are welcome.
​
Whoever you've been
there's room here for who you're becoming.
The Aligned Phoenix is a women's psychology practice in Frankston, working with women aged 14 and above. We do integrative depth therapy. Drawing on attachment theory, schema therapy, parts work, ACT, somatic and nervous system approaches, and CBT, with pattern recognition as the central organising mechanism.
​
The practice was founded by Melanie Hunter, registered psychologist. We are growing as a small group practice of women psychologists, all working in our restored old house on the Nepean Highway.
​
When a woman walks in, we want her to be able to exhale. The space is built for that, domestic, soft, considered. Somewhere her body recognises as safe enough to begin the real work.

You're in the right place if...
You carry it all, beautifully, invisibly, and wonder when someone will ask how you're doing
You've outgrown the roles you were taught to play and want something more honest
You feel the pull to soften, to come home to yourself, but don't quite know how
You've tried coping tools, read the books, done the work and still feel a quiet ache
You want depth. Not just strategies, but somewhere for your truth to unfold
You want a practice that takes your story seriously.
​
The Aligned Phoenix is a practice for women who are ready to do real work on themselves and want to be met properly while they do it.
