Services
Cognitive Assessments
Our cognitive assessments evaluate intellectual functioning, memory, and learning capacities using evidence-based tools. These assessments help diagnose conditions like learning disorders, ADHD, and intellectual disabilities while identifying strengths and areas for development. We provide comprehensive reports with tailored recommendations for educational, workplace, and personal support strategies.
Anxiety Disorders Treatment
We specialise in treating anxiety disorders across the lifespan using therapies like CBT and ERP. Our clinicians address conditions including OCD, social anxiety, and panic disorders through personalised treatment plans. We focus on equipping clients with practical coping strategies while addressing underlying cognitive patterns contributing to anxiety.
Child Psychology Services
Our child psychologists address anxiety, behavioural challenges, and developmental concerns using age-appropriate interventions. We work closely with families to implement strategies that support emotional regulation and social development. Parent guidance sessions help reinforce therapeutic progress in home and school environments.
Virtual Reality Therapy
This innovative treatment uses virtual reality to create controlled exposure environments for phobias and anxiety triggers. It allows gradual desensitisation in a safe setting under professional supervision. The technology enhances traditional exposure therapy by providing realistic, customisable scenarios for effective anxiety management.
Online Therapy
Our secure online platform delivers evidence-based therapy to clients across Australia. This service maintains clinical effectiveness while offering flexibility for remote clients or those with scheduling constraints. Sessions follow the same structured approach as in-person consultations with ongoing progress monitoring.

Report
A couple of months ago I was in a bad place mentally. I made a booking enquiry on Anxiety House's website, providing my details, availability and requesting a specific psychologist. Two days later, the receptionist replied to my enquiry via email with the words "as you can imagine, appointments after 'X-time' are very popular", and informed me the psychologist would not be available for months. I found this wording to be somewhat dismissive, only furthered by the fact that this was all I was offered. I was not offered further information on other psychologists with better availability or other

I have been seeing Dr Vinit for the last year, he recommended me to come and see a psychologist here at Anxiety House. My GP commented on how impressed she was with the correspondence she had received from Dr Vinit. I enquired through the website and received an email back from Kym within an hour. She straight away offered me an appointment which was amazing. I then was contacted twice before my appointment by Kerry, who offered me appointments as Kym had put me on the waitlist if any spots became available. I was very impressed with Kym and Kerry, they are both very caring and amazing receptionists

I dont normally write negative reviews but I do not recommend this practice at all. Whilst the councillor was professional, the front end reception staff care more about money than the clients wellbeing. Especially the office manager who has proven a number of times to continually hound and harass for fees that were just within the 24hr cancellation period with no consideration for circumstance or loyalty. Completely unprofessional and unacceptable and a business and office manager. Please steer clear of this practice.
