About Kelvin
Kelvin Mui is an AASW credentialed therapist in Australia with 10 years' experience in public and private mental health settings. He works with people who feel anxious, overwhelmed, stuck or disconnected, and with those facing trauma, eating or body image concerns, relationship difficulties, or big life changes.
Kelvin uses a trauma- and attachment-informed approach. He pays attention to a person's story and how coping habits formed over time. That helps make sense of current patterns rather than only naming symptoms.
Sessions move at a steady, manageable pace. Kelvin encourages practical steps and small experiments alongside talking through past experiences. He aims for clarity about what is helpful now and what might be tried next.
He draws on a mix of approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural ideas, dialectical behaviour tools, and narrative and attachment work. These give a range of ways to work on thoughts, emotions, patterns and relationships.
People who find social situations, speaking up or meeting new people hard can expect direct, simple options for practice and planning. Kelvin often focuses on reducing unhelpful avoidance and building small moments of connection and confidence.
To begin, clients typically complete an initial matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Kelvin uses that first meeting to clarify priorities and agree a pace and plan that suit the person.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that matter. It helps people struggling with avoidance or worry to make small, values-based changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. That can help with social anxiety, avoidance and rumination. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to how early relationships shape current trust and closeness. It can be useful when patterns of withdrawal, fear of rejection or intensity in relationships are causing distress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kelvin treats this as a collaborative process - he will talk with the person about goals, try an approach, and adjust what they do together based on how it fits. It is common to combine elements from different methods to suit a person's needs.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work, childcare or study commitments, allow for shorter check-ins, or reduce travel time. Kelvin will discuss practical arrangements and a workable session plan when the first meeting is scheduled.
