Understanding Psychologists and Clinical Psychologists

A Psychologist or Clinical Psychologist is a highly trained mental health professional skilled in assessing and treating mental health issues, and promoting emotional well-being. Our Brisbane-based psychologists specialize in treating OCD, anxiety disorders, and related conditions in children, adolescents, and adults. They hold postgraduate degrees and have extensive training in clinical practice, research, and assessment.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

OCD is an anxiety disorder characterised by distressing, intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions). Our Brisbane psychologists treat children and adults with various OCD symptoms, including fears of germs, illness, harm obsessions, and intrusive thoughts. With the right psychological therapy, OCD is highly treatable. Our psychologists often collaborate with a Child, Adolescent, and Adult Psychiatrist for comprehensive care, including medication when necessary. We offer treatment in Brisbane-based rooms or via Telehealth, with options for intensive and group-based treatments throughout the year.

Anxiety and Anxiety Disorders

Our Brisbane psychologists are experienced in treating anxiety disorders in children, adolescents, and adults. Anxiety can interfere with daily life, making psychological therapy essential when it becomes intrusive. Anxiety is the most common mental health condition in Australia, and it is treatable with psychological therapy. We treat various anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety, health anxiety, separation anxiety, social anxiety, and phobias. Our treatment approach varies based on severity and individual or family preferences.

Tourette Syndrome and Tic Disorders

Tics are involuntary, repetitive movements or sounds. When both motor and vocal tics are present, it is diagnosed as Tourette Syndrome. Tics often appear in childhood and can fluctuate over time. Psychological therapy, including Habit Reversal Training, helps manage tics, improving quality of life. While there is no cure, our Brisbane psychologists help individuals learn to manage their tics effectively.
