What Therapy helps with

Child and Adolescent Therapy

Therapy tailored to the developmental and emotional needs of children and teenagers, addressing challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, identity, social difficulties and school-related stress. Therapists use age-appropriate approaches that engage young people on their own terms.

Adult Psychotherapy

Therapy for adults addressing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, trauma, and other psychological concerns using CBT, ACT, EFT, EMDR, and short-term psychodynamic therapy.

Family Therapy

Therapy that works with the whole family — or key members — to improve communication, resolve conflict and strengthen relationships. It recognises that difficulties often affect and are affected by family dynamics, and works on shared patterns rather than focusing on one individual alone.

Couple Therapy

Therapy for couples experiencing relationship difficulties, communication breakdowns or major life transitions. A therapist helps partners understand each other's perspectives, improve communication and work toward a healthier, more connected relationship.

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.

Autism Spectrum Disorder Assessment

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.

Cognitive Assessment

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.

Memory and Concentration Assessment

Assessment of memory and concentration difficulties.

Parenting Support

Guidance and skill-building for parents and carers to better understand their child's development, manage challenging behaviours and build a warm, secure relationship. Programs may be one-on-one or delivered in groups and draw on evidence-based frameworks tailored to the family's needs.

Group Therapy

Therapy delivered to small groups of children or adults with similar goals, allowing participants to practise skills, build connections and learn from shared experiences. Groups are facilitated by a qualified therapist and can cover areas such as social skills, emotional regulation or anxiety management.

Circle of Security Parenting Program

Parenting program offered by the clinic.

Workshops and Seminars

Online workshops and seminars on various topics to provide accessible support and knowledge.

Our approach

Therapy House uses various evidence-based therapy models tailored to each child's needs, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma, and play-based approaches for younger children. Sessions are designed to help children make sense of their experiences in a safe, supportive environment. Therapists take a flexible and responsive approach, learning from clients and adapting their methods to meet evolving needs. The clinic emphasises trauma-informed principles and a deep respect for each child's lived experience and strengths.
