Multi-disciplinary Services
Our team members come from a variety of training, experience and backgrounds. We have enjoyed collaboratively working across our internal teams, as well as working closely with external teams and stakeholders.
Let us tailor assessments and intervention based on your needs, and if we cannot meet your needs, let us help you find an alternative.
Apart from treatment provided under NDIS, Victims Services, CTP, and Workcover, most services have an out-of-pocket fee. If you are looking for an assessment, a quote will be provided prior to the initiation of services.
Prior to your first appointment, it is helpful for you to complete our intake form and some psychometric assessments to ensure that your treating practitioner is clear on your background and support needs.
