Kimberley Lipschus // Screenwriter, Trainer and Psychotherapist

Kimberley champions inclusive, embodied storytelling, helping writers access the deeper truth of their stories.

Over a 30-year career that began as an actor, she has written, directed, and produced short films, documentaries, and audio docu-dramas, and co-produced the Australian Broadcasting Commission’s live political panel show Q&A. Alongside her screen work, Kimberley has maintained a fifteen-year psychotherapy practice, working with adolescents, women, and families to support personal growth and resilience.

Drawing on her academic credentials, including a double MA in Counselling and Writing, Kimberley braids personal inquiry with screenwriting in engaging and transformative workshops that bring together inner work and creative practice, using somatic, trauma-informed, and archetypal approaches to awaken the authentic stories held in our bodies, families, and systems.

She hosts The Storymakers’ Rebellion podcast from her home in Australia’s Byron Bay — unceded lands of the Arakwal people, the oldest storytellers on Earth — where she lives with her family, an oversized goofy hound, and two birds she accidentally adopted, all fodder she exploits in service of her story.
