About our team

Senior Psychologists

Senior Psychologists also hold registration with AHPRA and may or may not have an area of endorsement (e.g., clinical psychology). Senior Psychologists have advanced clinical expertise and have experience supporting clients with more complex needs. They also support the clinical governance of our practice, provide leadership to our team, and support early career clinicians through supervision and training.

Psychologists

Our Psychologists hold registration with AHPRA and may or may not hold an area of endorsement (e.g., clinical psychology). All Psychologists have completed at least 6 years of university and on-the-job training to obtain registration. They provide comprehensive psychological therapy and assessment and can confidently manage more diverse presentations.

Provisional Psychologists

Our Provisional Psychologists are early career clinicians, completing student placement or an internship as part of their requirements to gain general registration. Provisional Psychologists have completed a minimum of 4 years university training and are building their clinical experience under the support and supervision of a registered psychologist.
