How We Can Help
Our many years of experience have shown us that at times everyone feels overwhelmed by the day to day pressures of modern life. This can result in not coping as well as we would like and often suffering emotional distress. Our role as Psychologists is to help you or your child find your way back to a great quality of life again.Feeling Nervous?
New clients often report feeling a little nervous making their first contact with a Psychologist. We understand that getting started can be difficult so we endeavour to make the process as easy as we can.The First Step

Life Stressors
Sometimes we can feel overwhelmed by our day-to-day lives and start to feel like we are not coping as well as we would like too.These feelings of overwhelm can present as anxiety, depression or just a general feeling of “not being on top of things”.
If you have been feeling overwhelmed for a while you may find it helpful to talk to someone who can help you with some strategies to gain control of life again.
Children & Adolescents
From toddlers, school age children, adolescents and teenagers, right through to year 12 students, if there is an issue that needs professional caring help we can be of assistance to your child and your family.We understand that each individual has their own set of personal strengths and challenges, we focus on building on the strengths while assisting the young person with effective ways to manage and overcome their specific challenges.
Adults & Older Adults
Individuals who come to therapy are often finding life difficult to manage. The goal of therapy is to assist you to find clarity about your situation. We provide a safe, non-judgemental space for you to share your concerns.Our approach is about teaching skills to help you be the kind of people you want to be.
