Psychology

Telehealth Psychology services are now available for clients from anywhere in Australia.

Our warm, professional approach encompasses a belief that people can learn new ways of coping to achieve the most out of life. At Inner West Allied Health Centre we provide leading evidence-based treatment for a range of difficulties.

 
 

You don’t have to be in crisis or have a mental health issue to benefit from psychological therapy. Psychological therapy offers opportunities to explore all aspects of life experience, from personal development to difficult conditions like anxiety and depression, trauma, bereavement, illness and relationship issues. Psychological therapy can help you:

  • Improve your mood and reduce stress

  • Identify and change dysfunctional thought processes

  • Help you to identify and change old patterns of behaviour

  • Improve your ability to manage your emotions

  • Improve your awareness, communication & understanding of others’ intentions & behaviours

  • Increase your assertiveness skills

  • Improve your self-esteem

  • Help you to create and maintain personal boundaries

  • Create new meaning and open up possibilities in your life

  • Assist you in recovering from life-long problems

  • Improve your self-awareness and body-awareness
