Child & Adolescent Psychology
Our clinicians specialise in supporting children and teens with anxiety, ADHD, behavioural concerns, and trauma. We collaborate with families and schools to create tailored treatment plans. Services include play therapy, social skills training, and parent coaching to foster emotional resilience and positive development.
Telehealth Sessions
We offer secure video and phone sessions for clients Australia-wide. Telehealth provides convenient access to our full team, ensuring continuity of care regardless of location. This service is ideal for those in remote areas or preferring flexible appointment options.
Neuro-Affirming Therapy
Our neuro-affirming approach celebrates autistic, ADHD, and neurodivergent identities. We focus on strength-based strategies, personalised support, and creating inclusive environments. This includes assessments for neurodivergence and tailored interventions to enhance self-acceptance and daily functioning.
Psychological Assessments
We conduct comprehensive assessments for ADHD, learning difficulties, giftedness, and emotional wellbeing. Our process includes initial consultations, testing sessions, and detailed feedback to guide treatment planning and support strategies for children and adults.
Trauma Counselling
Our trauma-informed therapists use EMDR and CBT to help clients process traumatic experiences. We address symptoms like flashbacks, hypervigilance, and emotional numbness, fostering healing through safe, structured therapeutic relationships for adolescents and adults.
