Who Needs Psychologists

We all can need help at certain times in our lives.

Our clients are ordinary human beings who have had difficult experiences or are having a problem for which they need professional help. One in five Australian’s will experience a problem in their life that may need psychological treatment. Some of these are problems in living situations that are hard to cope with, People come to therapy for all sorts of reasons — and you don’t need to be in crisis to benefit. We help with, among many other things:


  • Stress, depression and anxiety
  • Trauma, grief and loss
  • Relationship, family and parenting difficulties
  • Life transitions, work stress and burnout
  • Chronic pain and health-related distress
  • Sleep, confidence, and feeling stuck


We work with adults, children, teenagers, couples and families, and with people from many cultural backgrounds. If you’re not sure whether therapy is right for you, give us a call — we’re happy to talk it through.

Many of our clients tend to minimise their problems and tell us that they are sure there are people more in need than they are.

No matter what difficulty you have or how small or large you think it is – talking to a psychologist can help. The hardest part is taking the first step.

Client’s often remark that their problem must be so much smaller than the problem of someone else that we see, or that their problem is small in comparison to someone who they see on TV. The truth is there is no scale of problem size. Different people struggle differently with different things, people each carry their pain in their own way.

It does not matter how big or small someone else thinks your problem is. It only matters how big you feel it is and that life is too important to let things slide.
