Everyone's story is different
Behind every concern is a unique person with their own experiences, relationships and goals.
Our psychologists work collaboratively with you to understand the whole picture.
Our Scope of Practice
Our practice provides individual psychological therapy for adults aged 18 and over. We do not provide couples, relationship or family therapy. To ensure every client receives the most appropriate care, we work within clearly defined areas of clinical practice. Some people are better served by specialist or locally based in-person services that are designed to meet their needs.
Our practice does not provide psychological services for:
Active psychosis, acute psychiatric crises, suicide risk, or conditions requiring specialist psychiatric management, including eating disorders, bipolar disorder and personality disorders
WorkCover, TAC, NDIS, Victims of Crime, or other third-party-funded psychological services
Medico-legal assessments, court reports, expert witness reports, Independent Psychological Examinations (IPEs), or other legal assessments
The Australian Defence Force, police, emergency services, correctional services, firearm licensing, the Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA), or other employment, licensing, or government agency requirements
If, during assessment or treatment, we determine that your needs fall outside our scope of practice, we'll discuss this with you and, where appropriate, help you access a service that is better suited to your circumstances.
