Inclusive, Affirming & Empowering Psychological Care for All Ages
Hayleigh Dunne Psychology was founded to address the growing need for affirming and informed care for the neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ communities. The practice is grounded in the belief that difference is not a deficit. Care is guided by identity-affirming principles, recognising the importance of lived experience, strengths, and personal context in shaping meaningful support.
Hayleigh’s goal is to offer a space where people of all ages feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood.
Therapy is collaborative and flexible, focused on helping individuals make sense of their experiences, build practical strategies, and move toward goals that align with their values. Whilst, assessments are designed to provide clarity and insight, supporting self-understanding.

DIRECTOR & PSYCHOLOGIST
Meet Hayleigh Dunne (She/Her)
Hayleigh has over ten years’ experience in the field of psychology supporting children, adolescents, and adults across private practice, educational, inpatient, and community settings.
Her work is grounded in a trauma-informed and strengths-based approach, with a strong focus on advocacy, collaboration, identity, autonomy, and honouring each client’s unique experiences.
Hayleigh is deeply committed to neurodiversity-affirming care and has extensive experience working with autistic individuals, ADHDers, AuDHDers, and their families. She practices from a neurodiversity-affirming framework that embraces, celebrates, and supports different neurotypes, rather than pathologizing difference.
Hayleigh Dunne Psychology recognises that every person’s journey is unique.
Whether you are seeking therapy, assessment, or supervision, Hayleigh is committed to delivering high-quality psychological care that honours who you are and supports you to navigate life with greater confidence and understanding.
Hayleigh Dunne Psychology respectfully acknowledges the Jagera and Turrbal Peoples as the Traditional Owners of the land on which we work. We honour their ongoing connection to Country, culture, and community, and pay our respects to Elders past, present, and future. We recognise that this land was never ceded and always remains Aboriginal land.
We also acknowledge and value the voices of people with lived experience of neurodiversity, LGBTQIA+ identities, mental health, disability, and marginalisation, as well as the families, carers, and supporters who walk alongside them. Your experiences are recognised, respected, and welcomed here.
