Our approach
The clinic uses evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to each child's needs and developmental level, including cognitive behaviour therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and trauma-informed strategies. Sessions focus on building awareness of thoughts and feelings, establishing healthy patterns of communication and behaviour, and helping young people feel heard and understood in a warm, safe environment. The clinic emphasises that sustainable change happens through parental involvement and collaboration with the school when needed, recognising that children thrive with a connected care team surrounding them.
Working with families
The clinic strongly believes that sustainable and effective change is achieved through parental involvement, and actively communicates with parents or carers about their child's progress and therapeutic goals. Where necessary, the team also communicates with schools to support continuity of care. Parents are invited to participate in initial sessions and are treated as partners in their child's therapy journey, with the clinic recognising that children thrive when there is a connected care team surrounding them.
Meet the team
The multidisciplinary team includes psychologists at various experience levels (from provisional to principal psychologists), occupational therapists, a speech therapist, and a dietician specialising in feeding therapy. Leadership includes Veronica Johnston (Managing Director and Clinical Psychologist) and April Daltonalomes (Principal Psychologist). Many clinicians hold postgraduate qualifications including Master's degrees in Clinical Psychology, and the team collectively brings diverse experience across mental health settings, neurodevelopment, trauma, family therapy, and specialised assessments including autism and ADHD evaluations.
Your first visit
Depending on your child's age and presenting concerns, the clinic may meet with you as a parent or carer individually for the first session to take a detailed history and give you space to speak honestly about your child's difficulties and your therapy goals. During this initial appointment, the team works to understand your specific challenges and areas of focus. After your first session you'll receive a detailed therapeutic plan to help you move forward. The clinic's goal is to ensure you have a supportive first session experience.
