Psychology

Our psychologists have experience and knowledge in the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of mental health difficulties in children, adolescents and adults. We believe in a collaborative and holistic approach for the clients that we see. Collaborating with our allied health colleagues means that an effective and efficient treatment model can be employed to provide the best practice for our clients.

At Head 2 Toe, we see parents on their own for an initial consultation to allow for a comfortable and open dialogue about the concern/s they are having for their child. Following this, assessment and treatment recommendations will be made to best support your clinical requirements and your families needs. We place high importance on the need for frequent collaboration with you for treatment plans and shared therapy goals.
