What is Clinical Psychology?
Clinical psychology focuses on the assessment and treatment of psychological challenges.

We are committed to delivering high-quality care using treatments that are evidence-based, effective, and tailored to your goals.

All treatment plans are specific to each client, creating a personalised supportive space for healing, growth and meaningful change.
While we draw from a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, our primary treatment modality is Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT). CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour to improve your emotional wellbeing. Additionally, we integrate techniques from Schema Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), tailored to meet your unique needs. 

What is the training of a Clinical Psychologist?

In Australia, Clinical Psychologists are required to complete extensive postgraduate training, with a minimum qualification of a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology. 

This pathway involves at least six years of university-level education and supervised practice in psychology. 

Clinical Psychology training is different from that of registered or generalist psychologists, requiring a higher level of training in assessment, diagnosis and treatment of mental health conditions.
