MindCare Clinics Psychology Therapy Assessments Brisbane Paddington

Therapy for all ages

Individual therapy provides us in which we explore your thoughts, emotions and behaviours to address personal challenges. It aims to support you, develop coping strategies, and promote emotional healing in a warm and safe environment.

Therapy allows us to explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Our focus is to support you by understanding your experiences, building your knowledge around those experiences, developing coping strategies, and promoting emotional healing in a warm and safe environment.

In our work together, we draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to help you challenge not only negative thoughts but also deep-seated beliefs. We can promote lasting change and emotional growth through techniques like thought challenging, values exploration, imagery, role-playing, and mindfulness.

“Healing does not mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls your life”.

Neurodiversity support allows us to collaborate and create personalised solutions that support your strengths and help you navigate challenges in an authentic and empowering way.

Neurodiversity support helps you understand how the world affects your daily life and develop strategies that work with your brain's unique way of processing information.

Neurodiversity support focuses on you and your needs, which may differ for each person. I incorporate multiple modalities, including psycho-education and role-play to promote social skills.

Therapies at MindCare Clinics

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

    Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a highly effective, evidence-based approach that focuses on understanding and changing the thought patterns and behaviours that contribute to emotional distress. By identifying these negative thought cycles, we can work together to challenge them and replace them with healthier, more balanced ways of thinking. This process not only helps reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other emotional struggles but also fosters personal growth and resilience.

    CBT is a collaborative and goal-oriented therapy, where we will work closely to identify specific issues and develop practical strategies to overcome them. This therapy empowers you to gain better control over your emotions and reactions by learning to recognise unhelpful patterns and replace them with more positive, constructive behaviours. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, or any other mental health challenge, CBT equips you with the tools to create lasting, meaningful change in your life.

  • Schema Therapy

    Schema Therapy is an integrative form of psychotherapy that combines elements of Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), attachment theory, and experiential techniques. It focuses on identifying and changing deeply ingrained patterns, or ‘schemas’, that develop early in life and shape how we think, feel, and behave.

    These schemas, often formed from negative or unmet childhood experiences, can influence how we view ourselves, others, and the world around us. Schema Therapy helps individuals understand these patterns, challenge unhealthy beliefs, and develop healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and relating to others.

  • Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)

    Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines mindfulness, acceptance, and self-compassion principles to help individuals manage emotional pain and challenging experiences. It focuses on cultivating a compassionate mindset towards oneself and others while encouraging acceptance of emotions, thoughts, and bodily sensations without judgment.

    By fostering a sense of kindness and understanding, ACT helps people develop greater emotional resilience, reduce self-criticism, and enhance their ability to navigate life's challenges with a sense of inner peace and balance. The goal is to create a more supportive, non-judgmental relationship with oneself, leading to improved mental well-being and healthier coping strategies.

  • Motivational Interviewing

    Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a client-centred, goal-oriented therapeutic approach to help individuals explore and resolve ambivalence about change. It focuses on building motivation and commitment to make positive changes by exploring the person's reasons for change in a non-judgmental and empathetic manner.

    MI involves active listening, open-ended questions, and reflective statements to help clients gain insight into their values, challenges, and desires. The goal is to enhance a person's confidence and autonomy in making decisions that align with their values, ultimately fostering lasting behavioural change.
