Inner Haven Therapy

About

Kevin Vun (He/Him)

Counsellor, Psychotherapist, Coach & Relationship Therapist.

Melbourne, Sydney & Online

I work with queer people who are thoughtful, self-aware, and tired of being pathologised, rushed, or boxed in — especially when their lives, relationships, identities, or histories don’t fit neat frameworks.

I’m a queer, Asian male psychotherapist with over a decade of lived, professional, and community-based experience working across Australia, Canada, and the UK. I’ve worked in private practice, community settings, non-profit, charities, crisis lines, schools, EAPs, and alongside diverse organisations supporting LGBTQIA+ communities, including clients navigating migration, identity development, trauma, addiction, relationship complexity, and burnout.

My work is grounded, relational, and practical — not performative, not prescriptive, and not “one-size-fits-all queer care”.


Who I Work With

I support individuals and relationships across the queer spectrum, including:

  • Gay, bi, trans, non-binary, questioning & gender-diverse clients

  • Queer men, Asian & CALD clients, and those navigating cultural identity

  • Neurodivergent clients

  • People in monogamous, ENM, open, kink-aware, or non-traditional relationships

  • Clients working through trauma, attachment wounds, shame, addiction, or identity fatigue

  • Couples and relationships wanting depth, repair, and real tools — not blame

I work affirmatively, but I don’t assume. I listen first.


How I Work

My approach is integrative and evidence-based, drawing from, but not limited to:

  • EMDR (trauma processing)

  • Gottman Method (Level 3) for relationship work

  • Emotionally Focused Therapy
  • Attachment-focused and psychodynamic therapy

  • Somatic, narrative, CBT & solution-focused approaches

  • Mindfulness, meditation, visualisation
  • Client Centred Therapy

What matters most is not the modality — it’s whether the work feels safe, collaborative, and useful.


What a Session With Me Is Like

Sessions are calm, human, and intentional.

You won’t be analysed from a distance or pushed to perform insight. We’ll slow things down when needed, name patterns honestly, and work with what’s actually happening in your life — not what should be happening.

Clients often tell me sessions feel:

  • Grounded and non-judgmental

  • Emotionally safe, but not passive

  • Insightful and practical

  • Respectful of autonomy, boundaries, and pace

I care deeply about ethical practice, transparency, and not over-promising. Therapy with me is a shared process — not something done to you. I also see these sessions are your own, you take the reins and I provide suggestions where appropriate. We work towards your goals, and I provide processing, education, tools, & insight along the way.


A Note on Values

Inner Haven Therapy was built to remove stigma from accessing therapy and to offer queer-affirming care that is ethical, thoughtful, and genuinely inclusive — not just in language, but in practice.

If you’re looking for a therapist who understands complexity, honours your lived experience, and treats you as a whole person rather than a label, you’re welcome here.
