Services
Diagnostic Assessment
Our comprehensive diagnostic assessments identify cognitive and clinical conditions using standardised tools. We evaluate learning disorders, ADHD, autism, and intellectual impairments through multi-session testing. Each assessment includes background analysis, evidence-based testing protocols, and detailed reporting for educational or NDIS purposes.
Trauma Counselling
Specialised trauma treatment using EMDR and evidence-based modalities addresses PTSD and complex trauma. Our therapists help clients process distressing memories through bilateral stimulation techniques. Sessions focus on developing coping strategies and restoring emotional regulation for adults and adolescents.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
CBT interventions target anxiety, depression, and stress-related conditions through structured skill-building. We help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical coping mechanisms. This short-term therapy focuses on symptom relief and behavioural change across multiple clinical presentations.
Supervision Services
Board-approved supervision programs support psychologists' professional development through STAP-trained supervisors. We offer clinical registrar programs, internship supervision, and re-entry training. Supervision includes goal setting, progress monitoring, and compliance with AHPRA registration standards.
Telehealth Sessions
Secure telehealth consultations provide accessible mental health support across Queensland. Our registered psychologists deliver evidence-based therapy for anxiety, depression, and stress management through encrypted video platforms. This service maintains the same clinical standards as face-to-face consultations.
