What Soothe helps with

Assessment

A thorough evaluation by a psychologist using standardised tests, interviews and observation to understand a person's cognitive, emotional and behavioural functioning. Results inform diagnosis and guide recommendations for therapy, school adjustments and support services.

ADHD Assessment

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.

Specific Learning Disorders Assessment

Formal testing to identify and understand specific learning disorders.

Intellectual Disabilities Assessment

Formal testing to assess intellectual functioning.

Educational 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.

Giftedness Assessment

Formal testing to identify and assess giftedness.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

A structured, evidence-based therapy that helps people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours. CBT is widely used for anxiety, depression, OCD and many other mental health challenges, and has strong evidence for both children and adults.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

A mindfulness-based psychological therapy that teaches people to accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than fighting them, and to commit to actions aligned with their values. ACT is effective for anxiety, depression, chronic pain and many other conditions.

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy

Psychological treatment using EMDR techniques.

Schema Therapy

An integrative psychological therapy that explores deep-rooted patterns (schemas) formed in childhood that drive unhelpful thoughts, feelings and behaviours in adulthood. It combines elements of CBT, attachment theory and other approaches to bring about lasting personality and emotional change.

Motivational Interviewing

A structured, time-limited therapy that focuses on improving interpersonal relationships and communication patterns as a way to address mental health difficulties such as depression and grief. It helps clients identify how relationship dynamics affect mood and functioning.

Interpersonal Therapy

Cool Kids Program

Psychological treatment program offered by the clinic.

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.

Our approach

At Soothe Psychology, the approach focuses on helping clients discover thinking and behavioural patterns that may be affecting their quality of life, with the goal of helping individuals overcome mental blocks and live in line with their values. The practice recognises that there is no one-size-fits-all for therapy, and offers a range of evidence-based psychological treatments including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, and Schema Therapy, among others. Sessions are tailored to each person's needs, with therapists taking a collaborative, curious and empathetic approach. The psychologists are trained in structured assessment procedures and formal testing to better understand cognitive, academic, behavioural and emotional functioning. The foundation of successful therapy is described as the provision of unconditional trust and an environment of compassion, understanding and acceptance.
