ABOUT ME - Adrian Lopresti, Clinical Psychologist in Perth WA

Hi, my name is Adrian Lopresti and I am a registered clinical psychologist practicing in Perth Western Australia specialising in the area of psychological and nutritional treatments for mental health problems. After completing my Masters Degree in Clinical Psychology and working as a clinical psychologist for over 14 years, I became interested in the area of nutritional treatments for psychological health and have completed a number of courses in nutritional medicine with its specific application to mental health problems.

I passionately believe that for the mind to be working properly, the body has to be healthy. You just cannot separate one from the other. The same also applies in the reverse direction. If you are suffering from mental health problems then physical health will also be adversely affected. That's why in this website you will notice a lot of reference to nutrition and physical ailments associated with mental health problems.

My goal in creating this website is to educate the public about how they can effectively improve mental health through effective psychological, nutritional, lifestyle and  (where necessary) pharmacological approaches.

Some of the approaches I recommend are well accepted by 'mainstream' mental health practitioners, while others are not so well known and even criticised by many so called 'experts' who know very little about the topic. Unfortunately, the value of nutrition in mental health is one such approach that is often overlooked by practitioners.

I will be continuing to add to this website and if you have any questions or would like specific topics covered just let me know (contact me).

I wish you all the best in your journey to improved mental health.
