Dylan Kirkpatrick

I am passionate about supporting health wellbeing through evidence-based interventions for sleep disorders.  I see adolescents (14+) and adults. I work to foster a friendly and supportive relationship that helps clients to better understand their sleep and develop strategies to bring about positive change. I’m trained in CBT-Insomnia which is the recommended first-line treatment for this common condition. 

The sleep related difficulties I work with include: 

• Insomnia (trouble falling asleep and/or staying asleep)
• Overrealiance on  sleep medication
• Circadian rhythm disorders (extreme night owls and early birds)
• Coping with shift work
• Recurrent nightmares
• Hypersomnia and fatigue
• Assisting patients to adjust to CPAP therapy for OSA
• Assistance with other difficulties impacting sleep (e.g. depression, stress, and anxiety)​

I am a Clinical Psychologist registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and a member of the Australian Psychological Society (APS) and Australian Clinical Psychology Association (ACPA). I completed my Bachelor of Psychology (Hons) and Master of Clinical Psychology degrees through Curtin University and have experience working within private practice and community mental health settings.
