Personalised, evidence-based therapy in a safe and confidential space, helping you understand yourself more deeply, process what's been difficult, and build a life that feels more like yours.
Individual therapy is a confidential, one-on-one conversation between you and a qualified psychologist. Sessions are tailored entirely to you (your concerns, your goals, and the pace that feels right).
It's a space where you don't have to perform or explain yourself to anyone else. Just you and a clinician who's focused entirely on understanding what you're going through and helping you find a path forward.
Whether you're dealing with something specific, like anxiety or grief, or simply feeling like something's not right, therapy can help you gain clarity, build skills, and make real and lasting change.
No two people are the same. And neither is any two therapy journeys. Your psychologist designs an approach around your specific situation, goals, and strengths.
Everything you share stays between you and your psychologist. Sessions are held in a private, calm environment, in-person in Balwyn North or via secure telehealth.
Our psychologists use therapies with strong research support (including CBT, ACT, EMDR, Schema Therapy, and more), always adapted to what works best for you.
Our psychologists have broad experience across a wide range of mental health concerns.
Generalised anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, health anxiety, specific phobias (practical strategies to break the anxiety cycle and regain your sense of calm).
Persistent low mood, loss of motivation, emptiness, and feelings of hopelessness (evidence-based support to lift and sustain your wellbeing).
Processing difficult or overwhelming experiences (childhood trauma, accidents, abuse, medical events) using specialist trauma-focused therapies including EMDR.
Bereavement, relationship breakdown, loss of identity, or life transitions (compassionate support through every stage of grief, at your own pace).
Obsessive compulsive disorder, unwanted intrusive thoughts, and compulsive behaviours, using specialist ERP and evidence-based CBT approaches.
Low confidence, harsh self-criticism, people-pleasing, and difficulty knowing who you are, building a more grounded and compassionate relationship with yourself.
Disordered eating, body dissatisfaction, emotional eating (integrated psychological support, often in collaboration with our accredited dietitian).
Practical strategies, emotional regulation, and self-understanding for those living with ADHD, ASD, or other neurodivergent presentations.
Major life changes (new parenthood, career shifts, retirement, migration, or relationship changes), navigating uncertainty and building confidence through change.
Beginning therapy can feel daunting. Here's what to expect, step by step.

Contact us via phone, email, or our online booking portal. Our intake team will ask a few brief questions about what you're looking for and match you with the psychologist best suited to your needs and availability.
Your first appointment is about building a picture of who you are and what's brought you to therapy. Your psychologist will ask questions about your current concerns, your history, and your goals, but at a pace that feels comfortable for you. There's no pressure to share everything at once.
Regular sessions (usually weekly or fortnightly) build on each other over time. You'll develop insights, learn practical skills, and practise new ways of responding, both within sessions and in your everyday life. Most people notice meaningful progress within 6–12 sessions.
Therapy isn't open-ended by default. Your psychologist will regularly check in on your progress and discuss your goals. When you're ready, you'll work together on a plan for maintaining your gains and knowing when to reach back out if you need to.
Our psychologists are trained in a range of evidence-based therapies, selected and adapted to suit each person.
The most well-researched form of therapy, helping you identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours that maintain distress.
Building psychological flexibility, learning to accept difficult emotions rather than fight them, and committing to values-based action.
A specialist approach for trauma and PTSD, processing distressing memories so they lose their grip on your present-day wellbeing.
Exploring deeper patterns and beliefs about yourself and the world, often rooted in early experiences, and updating them for who you are today.
Building distress tolerance, emotion regulation, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness, particularly useful for intense emotional experiences.
The gold-standard approach for OCD, systematically facing feared situations without engaging in compulsions, breaking the anxiety cycle over time.
Our psychologists each bring their own areas of expertise, therapeutic style, and lived understanding. We'll match you with the right person for where you are right now. And that match matters.
Individual therapy is offered by Julijana, Samina, Tim, Paige, Belinda, and Shannon, with varying specialties across anxiety, trauma, OCD, eating disorders, ADHD, and more.
