Behind the practice

Ernest Materyn, psychologist, in his Port Macquarie practice

I'm Ernest — a psychologist based in Port Macquarie, on the Mid North Coast of NSW.

Every mind has its own story, and my aim is to understand it rather than simply score it. Families come to me for autism, ADHD, and cognitive assessments for their children; adults come for assessment and for therapy. In every case, my approach is the same: thorough, neuroaffirming, and explained in plain language.

I believe therapy is more than overcoming challenges; it's a path to self-understanding and growth — and the key is finding a psychologist you feel gets you.

Individual therapy is available to adults (18+), shaped collaboratively around what matters to you.
