Who we support

Supports that just make sense.

We work with children, teens, adults, families, and couples across Geraldton and the Midwest. Different ages, different presentations, one consistent belief: people do better when they feel safe, connected, and understood.

Children & young people

Kids don’t sit on couches for 50 minutes. So we don’t ask them to.

Therapy with children is play-based and relational: games, drawing, building, or shooting hoops while the real work happens alongside. A child who feels safe with their therapist is a child who can actually do the work.

We are neurodiversity-affirming in practice, not just on paper. We help kids understand their brain and cope in a world that was not designed for them.

  • Big feelings and big behaviour
  • Anxiety and worry
  • The effects of trauma and adversity
  • Autism and ADHD, diagnosed or suspected
  • School, friendship, and family struggles

Families & parents

You don’t have to figure it out on your own.

Reaching out for support is a strength, and it means you are ready for something different. Parents are doing the best they can with what they have.

Our job is to give you more: a better understanding of what your child’s behaviour is communicating, practical strategies that fit your actual family, and support that never makes you feel judged for needing it.

We draw on Circle of Security and Collaborative and Proactive Solutions, which is a fancy way of saying we focus on the relationship between you and your child, and we work with your child rather than doing things to them.

Adults

Practical, grounded, and built for you.

Therapy for adults covers anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, emotional regulation, relationship difficulties, and the experience of being a neurodivergent adult in a world built for neurotypical ones.

Many of the adults we see are parents of the kids we see, or adults who spent their whole childhood being told they were too much, too sensitive, or not trying hard enough, and are only now finding out why. If that is you, you are in good company here.

Sessions are practical and grounded in real conversation. No jargon for the sake of jargon, no one-size-fits-all formula.

Couples

It is rarely because one of you is the problem.

Relationships run on the same wiring as everything else we work with: nervous systems, attachment, and communication. When things go wrong, it is usually two nervous systems triggering each other in a pattern neither of you chose.

We draw on the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy to help you understand what is actually happening between you when things break down, and to rebuild the connection and communication underneath it. Not scorekeeping, not referee work, understanding each other well enough that the same fight stops happening.

Assessments

The answer to the question underneath the question.

Sometimes the most useful thing we can offer is an answer to: what is actually going on here?

Psychological and behavioural assessment brings together observation, interviews, standardised measures, and information from the people who know the person best. The result is not just a label. It is understanding that shapes what support should look like, at home, at school, at work, and in funding applications where a formal assessment is required.

Whether an assessment is the right next step depends on the person and the question being asked. Contact us and we will talk it through before anything is booked.

However you come to us

How we work, whoever you are

Research shows

Research shows around 70% of what makes therapy work is the relationship between you and your clinician. We take that seriously, which is why sessions here do not feel like sessions anywhere else.

Evidence-based and actually enjoyable

These are not opposites. We hold high clinical standards and we make therapy something you would want to show up for.

Honest

We are clear about who we work best with. If we are not the right fit, we will say so and help you find who is.

Therapy is not something that marks you as broken. It is something you get to do.
