Thinkahead is a private psychology consulting firm based in Sydney that works across both private practice and corporate consulting.
Parents most consistently praise the speech pathology work of Lindsay Gibson, with multiple families reporting meaningful progress in their children's speech and sound production over time, describing her as patient, warm, and effective with young children. Several reviewers also speak positively about behaviour therapist Sarah Barker and the practice's ability to offer multiple therapy types under one roof, which a number of parents of neurodivergent children found particularly valuable. However, one reviewer had a strongly negative experience involving cancelled appointments that were never rescheduled, poor communication, and billing issues, specifically raising concerns about the suitability of this approach for autistic children who rely on routine and consistency.

Thinkahead is a private psychology consulting firm based in Sydney that works across both private practice and corporate consulting. They specialise in the assessment and treatment of mental health conditions and provide clinical services to children, adolescents and adults. Their vision is to unlock true potential and build on strengths by using an integrated approach combining psychological principles with evidence-based methodologies.
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.
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.
Counselling services addressing anxiety, depression, behavioural problems, trauma, grief and other mental health concerns in children and adolescents.
Structured therapy that uses evidence-based strategies to reduce challenging behaviours and teach new, more helpful ones. Therapists identify the purpose a behaviour serves and design targeted plans to address it across home, school and community settings.
Assessment and treatment of communication difficulties including speech sounds, language development, stuttering, voice, and feeding and swallowing. Speech pathologists work with children and adults to help them communicate clearly and confidently.
A creative therapy in which drawing, painting and other art-making processes are used to help children and adults explore emotions, reduce anxiety and process difficult experiences. No artistic ability is required — the focus is on the process, not the product.
A therapy that helps children and adults develop the everyday skills needed for daily life — from dressing, writing and play to sensory processing and school participation. Occupational therapists assess what is getting in the way and design practical strategies to build independence and confidence.
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.
A talking-based support that helps people work through emotional difficulties, relationship challenges, grief, stress or mental health concerns. A counsellor listens without judgement and helps you develop coping strategies and a clearer sense of direction.
