Report
I tried to book someone for some sessions with my children to help deal with their challenging behaviour. I leave a msg with the receptionist with my phone no and details. I recover a text 10min later back saying sorry we cant help you and please contact a different practice. I ring back and text back questioning this? No response. Very unprofessional practice especially when it takes a lot yorevonose that your family needs help and you take that step and receive such an unprofessional response. Do not recommend seeing these people.

Report
Earlier this year my husband and I realised we needed some help with our soon to turn 8 year old son. He was experiencing anxiety at school resulting in tears, but at home we were experiencing total defiance ending in outrageous arguements and fights. We were quite an unhappy family. I started talking to friends about our situation and a friend recommended Changes Psychology. I did some research and was especially keen on the idea of our psychologist coming to us, especially considering I had 2 younger children. I rang and made an appointment. We have been having a psychologist visit our son

Changes Psychology and Steve have been amazing. From spending time with us on our first phone call, to going out of is way to make a home visit very quickly. Steve has helped guide us through some big challenges and we could not recommend this business highly enough
