About Me

I’m Aiden and I’m the Founder & Operator of Avision Psychotherapy. That’s me in the Coca-Cola hat. I’m standing in front of Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, where Martin Luther King Jr. was baptized and served. It’s a place that resonates with me very deeply because it symbolizes a life led with purpose and dedicated to authentic service to others.

Through my ongoing work in the healthcare & community sector, I came to a point of questioning the direction of my career. It seemed all too often and frustrating that many of the systems in place felt distant from the real needs of people—focused on protocol and profit, not enough on the individual.

It’s my fundamental belief that the person who can help you the most is YOU. You know your life better than anyone else ever could, the unique details and relationships that only you have. My role is to facilitate, support, truly listen, offer academic or profession specific insights and offer resources that will help you unlock the answers within yourself.

I transitioned into private practice to provide genuine outcomes. My goal is not to impose solutions but to assist you to discover them within yourself. Each of us has the capacity to live a life that is meaningful and authentic, and the path to this starts with honoring who you truly are at your core.

To create a life that’s truly yours, where you feel free from unnecessary suffering and equipped to take on the responsibilities that give your life its ultimate purpose. It’s not a matter of following a predetermined path—you owe it to yourself to forge your own.

Experience, Qualifications & Registration

  • I am a Registered Counsellor and Psychotherapist, holding Level 1 membership with the Australian Counselling Association (MACA). This registration ensures adherence to high professional standards, a rigorous code of ethics, educational and ethical benchmarks, ongoing professional development and recognition as an Allied Health Professional in the Australian Healthcare system.

  • A Graduate Diploma of Counselling from Torrens University, I honed my clinical skills and deepened my understanding of psychotherapy through practical applications and extensive supervision. My training emphasized evidence-based modalities such as:

    • Cognitive Behavioural Therapies (CBT, ACT & DBT)

    • Humanistic Therapies (Client-Centered, Gestalt & Narrative Therapy)

    • Psychodynamic Therapy

    • Short Term Modalities (Motivational Interviewing & Solutions-Focused Therapy)

    A Bachelor of Psychological Science at Deakin University, I developed a strong foundation in Cognitive Psychology, Psychopathology and Personality Theory, with a particular focus on Diagnostic Frameworks, Research Methodologies, and Psychological Assessment. My studies also included specialized electives in Neuroscience, Health Psychology, Forensic Psychology, World Religions, Counselling, and Philosophy, allowing me to explore the biological, social, and existential dimensions of human behavior. This interdisciplinary background informs my clinical work, enabling me to approach therapy with a nuanced understanding of cognition, emotional regulation, and the diverse factors that shape mental health.
