Clinical Psychology Services
Psychologists use non-medication-based approaches and strategies to help reduce mental health distress and enhance wellbeing. This may also include working with thoughts, feelings, and behaviours to address common lifestyle factors.
In therapy, it is common for many issues to overlap, and often these can be addressed as a part of the treatment plan. Where complex or acute mental health issues, including self-harm, trauma or eating disorders are the primary concern, you may find it helpful to speak to your GP to find a psychologist who specifically works in these areas. Where it becomes clear that you would benefit from another type of therapy or practitioner, our Psychologist, Rhonda, will discuss referral options with you.
Live Love Work Psychology provides clinical psychology services for individual adults, with a particular focus on women’s wellbeing and lifestyle medicine. We also periodically offer some workshops around the theme of wellbeing.
