About Robert Grimes

Robert Grimes is an Australia-accredited therapist with 18 years of professional experience and accreditation through PACFA (Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia). He works with individuals and couples on relationship difficulties, family conflict, grief and loss, and intimacy-related concerns, drawing on an approach he describes as Relational Wisdom and The Art of Compassionate Conflict.

Known by some as "The Couples Whisperer," he pays attention to the patterns that show up across the range of close connections - at home, at work, among friends, and within wider family of origin relationships including children, parents, and siblings. He applies this understanding to help clients navigate communication problems, control issues, separation and divorce, and other relational challenges.

Robert adapts conversations and treatment plans to suit each person's particular circumstances, offering support for issues such as abandonment and attachment wounds, body image, caregiver stress, guilt and shame, impulsivity, loneliness, men's issues, and midlife concerns. He approaches every client with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and acknowledges the courage it takes to begin therapy.
