Comprehensive Psychological Services
Psychological Therapy
Our therapeutic services, led by experienced Counselling, therapist professionals, address a broad spectrum of mental health concerns. We use evidence-based treatment modalities proven effective through rigorous research. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other contemporary approaches suited to your individual circumstances.
Therapy provides a confidential space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Our psychologists help you develop practical strategies to manage challenges, improve relationships, and enhance your overall well-being.
Psychological Assessments
We conduct thorough psychological assessments for:
- ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder): Comprehensive evaluations that examine attention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity across different settings
- Autism Spectrum Disorder: Detailed assessments that explore social communication, behavioral patterns, and sensory sensitivities
- Specific Learning Difficulties: Testing to identify challenges with reading, writing, mathematics, or processing information
These assessments use standardised psychometric tests and clinical interviews to provide you with a clear understanding of your cognitive profile. The results guide treatment recommendations and can support applications for educational accommodations or NDIS funding.
Telehealth Services
We understand that attending in-person appointments isn’t always possible. That’s why we offer telehealth psychology services, allowing you to access quality care from the comfort of your own home. Our telehealth sessions maintain the same standard of professionalism and confidentiality as face-to-face appointments.

Getting Started: Your Journey to Better Mental Health
Starting therapy or arranging an assessment can feel daunting, but we’ve made the process as straightforward as possible.
Step 1: Make an Enquiry
Contact us by phone at 08 7120 7408 or complete our contact form. During this initial conversation, we’ll discuss your needs and match you with a suitable psychologist. You’re also welcome to nominate a specific psychologist if you have a preference.
Step 2: Booking Your Appointment
Once we’ve connected you with the right psychologist, we’ll guide you through booking your first appointment. You’ll receive a Welcome Pack containing important information and consent forms to complete before your session. This ensures your first appointment can focus entirely on beginning your therapeutic work.
Step 3: Your First Session
We recommend arriving early for your appointment. This gives you time to settle in, perhaps make a cup of tea or coffee, take a few deep breaths, and prepare yourself mentally for the session ahead.
Your psychologist will spend time getting to know you, understanding your concerns, and explaining how they can help. This initial session is about building rapport and creating a foundation for the therapeutic relationship.
Our Philosophy: Patient-Centered Care
Everything we do at Adelaide Clinical Psychology centers on one core principle: your comfort and care come first.
We’ve created a practice environment that’s private, safe, secure, and beautiful. We want you to feel relaxed enough to explore difficult emotions, comfortable enough to be vulnerable, and supported enough to work toward meaningful change.
This philosophy extends beyond our physical space. It shapes how our psychologists interact with you, how we structure our services, and how we approach every aspect of your care.
