Swan Valley Psychology Centre in Perth provides a highly professional clinical psychology service with each clinical psychologist providing a high standard of health care to our clients.
Reviews of this provider are predominantly negative, with multiple reviewers raising serious concerns about administrative failures — including being given incorrect billing information, appointments being cancelled or moved without notice, and unreturned complaint calls. Several reviewers also describe the physical environment as unclean or uncomfortable, and there are individual accounts of a therapist shaming a client and a 14-year-old being dismissed mid-session. A small number of reviewers had positive experiences with a specific psychologist named Christina, describing her as approachable and insightful, but these positive accounts are outnumbered by complaints about both clinical conduct and basic service reliability.
