What Minds helps with

Therapy for Children, Teens & Adults

Individual therapy and intervention for children, adolescents, and adults addressing mental health concerns (anxiety, depression, low mood), emotional and behavioural regulation, school transitions, and grief.

Parenting Support & Circle of Security

Evidence-based parenting support program designed to build strong parent-child relationships and develop practical strategies for emotional and behavioural needs.

Autism Assessments

A multi-disciplinary evaluation that determines whether a child or adult meets the criteria for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). It usually involves observation, standardised assessments and parent or teacher interviews, resulting in a diagnostic report that opens access to therapy and NDIS supports.

ADHD Assessments

A structured evaluation by a psychologist or psychiatrist to determine whether ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is present. It typically includes questionnaires, clinical interviews, rating scales and sometimes cognitive testing, and results in recommendations for support and treatment.

Cognitive Assessments

A standardised assessment of thinking, learning and memory abilities administered by a psychologist. Results identify a person's cognitive profile, highlight strengths and areas of difficulty, and inform recommendations for school support, therapy and NDIS access.

Educational Assessments

Functional Capacity Assessments

A comprehensive assessment — typically conducted by an occupational therapist or allied health professional — that evaluates how a person's disability or health condition affects their ability to carry out daily tasks. The report is used to determine NDIS funding needs and plan appropriate supports.

Clinical Supervision

Structured support for practitioners to reflect on their clinical work, receive expert guidance and maintain professional standards. Supervision is required for many Allied Health and mental health professionals and supports safe, high-quality care.

Professional Development & Training

Training and professional development services offered to other practitioners.

Our approach

At Minds of All Kinds Psychology, therapy is delivered through a neuroaffirming, trauma-informed, client-centred approach that celebrates the diversity of minds and honours each person's unique strengths, needs, and lived experiences. Sessions draw on evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and play-based interventions tailored to each client's developmental stage. When working with children, a holistic approach involves both the child and their carers, teachers, and other supports to best help families work towards their goals. Sessions address a wide range of presentations including anxiety, depression, emotional and behavioural regulation, school engagement, and life transitions, all grounded in the latest research and best practices in psychology.

Working with families

Parents and carers are central to the clinic's approach, with the team taking a collaborative, holistic perspective that actively involves family members in therapy from the start. The clinic works closely with carers and other supports such as teachers and educators to create consistent, supportive environments and to help families work towards their individual goals. Parenting support services, including the evidence-based Circle of Security program, are available to help you build strong relationships with your child and develop practical strategies for their emotional and behavioural needs. Regular communication and collaboration with families ensures that therapy is tailored to your child's unique needs and that you feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout the process.
