Does this sound familiar?
“We used to be so close, but now we’re like ships in the night. We don’t laugh together anymore….”
“I don’t even know how it starts — we go from nothing to a screaming match in under 5
seconds.”
“She’s so close to leaving me, and I’m terrified of losing her. I want to fix it, but I have no idea where to start.”
“He has been drinking every night and it’s like there is a third person in our relationship. I just don’t feel as emotionally connected anymore.”
“I can’t remember the last time we had sex. I feel so lonely. I just want to connect again.”
“We have just had our second child, and it has changed everything. The finances are tight, we have minimal support, and we are getting no sleep. It’s like we aren’t in a relationship anymore.”
“Every time I tell her I need space, she keeps asking questions and wants to solve the
problem. It infuriates me.”

“A safe space to find clarity amidst the chaos”
“Navigating the transition into parenthood for the second time was both joyful and overwhelming. Kriss was an incredible support during this period. His compassionate and understanding approach helped me process both emotions and challenges.
Kriss provided practical strategies to balance my responsibilities while ensuring I could still be present for my partner…his guidance created a safe space for me to share my concerns and find clarity amidst the chaos.

Thinking about starting therapy?
Here are some of the most common questions people ask before working with The Lumin Clinic. Answered with the care and honesty you can expect in every session.
Does Lumin Clinic only work with romantic relationships?
Not at all. At Lumin Clinic, we work with both couples and individuals. You don’t need to be in a relationship—or even seeking one—to explore and strengthen the way you relate to others. Whether you’re navigating challenges in a romantic partnership, working through patterns that affect your personal relationships, or seeking support in resolving conflict with family, friends, or colleagues, we’re here to help.
Where is Lumin Clinic? Do I need to be in Brisbane?
No—sessions are available Australia-wide via Zoom. This allows individuals and couples to access therapy from the comfort of their own home, at times that suit their schedule. Whether you’re in Brisbane or beyond, support is just a click away.
What kind of techniques are used in therapy?
Kriss uses a range of different modalities including, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Schema Focused Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Multisystemic Therapy (family therapy), systems and trauma informed therapy, and Gottman Therapy (for couples).
How long do sessions go for?
Individual relationship sessions are one hour long, couples sessions are 90 minutes long.
How do I make a booking?
We start with a free 15-minute initial assessment so we can understand your needs and answer any questions you may have. This conversation helps us decide together whether we’re the right fit, and which type of session will best support you.
Once we’ve had that chat, we’ll send you a personalised link to book your first session at a time that works for you.
How much do sessions cost?
An individual or couple’s relationship session for up to 60 minutes costs $198.00.
A couple’s relationship session for up to 90 minutes costs $240.00.
Am I eligible for a rebate?
You may be eligible to be subsidised through Medicare for individual sessions.
Under Medicare, all Australians are eligible for 10 subsidised sessions with a therapist per year following a GP referral.
Visit your GP before booking a session with Kriss to request a Mental Health Care Plan to receive your first six subsidised sessions.
Some private health insurers subsidise sessions for both couples and individual sessions. For more information about requesting a private health rebate, ask for further details in your 15 minute intro session.
