SERVICES WE OFFER

Happy Minds focuses on the whole person, recognising your strengths rather than focusing on deficits or traditional disease-based models of mental illness. This holistic approach means that we understand our clients come to us with many skills already and are the 'experts' in their own lives. We build on this to work collaboratively towards achieving meaningful goals for the client.

Our team offers a wide range of services for children, young people, adults and families. In addition to those described in detail further below, we also offer:

 

  • evidence-based therapeutic interventions for most psychological presentations

  • diagnostic assessments and reports (including supportive assessment for Autism)

  • various workshops for parents and schools, and

  • individual or organisation supervision and training.

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

Our individual therapy sessions focus on building resilience and wellbeing for children, young people and adults. We offer evidence-based interventions that are tailored to what works for each of our clients - what is helpful for one person may not fit for another.
Some of the therapy models we use are: Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), EMDR, and narrative/play based therapy. No matter which models we use, our goal is to approach sessions with flexibility, openness and authenticity.

COUPLES AND FAMILY THERAPY

We recognise that 'no one person is an island' and that our relationships are an essential part of what makes us human - especially our families. We understand that along the way there can be challenges with intimacy, parenting, marital separation, and stressful life events.
In therapy sessions, we’ll work to address unhelpful thinking and behaviours using an approach built on attachment and compassion. We will help you “re-frame” your thinking and provide you with valuable tools to cope with life’s obstacles together.

NDIS SERVICES

We believe that everyone deserves to have a fulfilling and meaningful life - including people with disabilities.

​

Happy Minds is proud to support National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants, offering Therapeutic Support to eligible clients under the scheme. We also provide relevant assessments and support with NDIS applications.

​

We welcome opportunities to work collaboratively with other providers and aim to be flexible to suit each individual participant's plan.
