• Our approach

  The provider uses an evidence-based, client-centred approach tailored to each person's unique needs, background, and goals. Sessions are personalised according to your background, narrative, and values. The team offers a range of evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Schema Therapy for psychology clients, along with neuropsychological assessments, occupational therapy, and speech pathology services. The clinic is committed to inclusive, culturally responsive care and is LGBTQI-friendly, serving Melbourne's diverse communities in multiple languages.

• Working with families

  Parents and carers are directly involved in treatment for children under 18, who require parental or guardian consent at the time of booking. The clinic offers family therapy as a service, creating a safe and neutral environment where family members can express concerns and work on communication, conflict resolution, and understanding. The provider uses therapeutic approaches like systems theory to examine family dynamics and patterns of behaviour, helping families develop coping strategies and set boundaries. Sessions may involve the entire family or focus on specific individuals depending on the issues, with the goal of equipping families with skills and tools to handle future challenges together.

• Your first visit

  At a first appointment, you can book directly without a referral, though Medicare rebates require a referral from your GP, psychiatrist or paediatrician. Standard consultation fees for psychology and neuropsychology range from $150–$330 for a 50-minute session. The initial appointment will establish your needs and goals, and the clinician will create a collaborative and safe therapeutic relationship. For children under 18, parental or guardian consent is required at the time of booking. Telehealth appointments are available, and clients can access sessions from any private location with a reliable internet connection and appropriate device.
