Coastal Minds

Coastal Minds is an esteemed establishment located at Dicky Beach, Coonowrin Street in Australia. As a health-focused institution, we provide exceptional Behaviour Support and Therapeutic Services for children, adolescents, and their families. Our psychology practice in Caloundra is dedicated to offering effective interventions and support to promote the well-being of our clients.

At Coastal Minds, our highly qualified psychologist, Ana Foix, holds full registration with the Psychology Board of Australia (AHPRA) and is an associate member of the Australian Psychological Society (APS). Ana is also registered to provide services under Medicare schemes, making our institution a trusted choice for families seeking professional assistance. Ana is a panel provider for the early intervention programs Helping Children with Autism and Better Start for Children with a Disability.

We pride ourselves on our special interest in positive behaviour support, as we firmly believe in focusing on abilities rather than disabilities. Our therapeutic interventions are based on evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), ensuring the highest quality of care for our clients.

Coastal Minds adopts a family-inclusive approach, placing the client at the center of our practice. We understand the importance of a supportive environment and work closely with families to provide tailored services that accommodate individual needs. Our in-clinic appointments typically last for one hour and are available at two convenient locations: Caloundra and Dicky Beach.

In addition to in-clinic sessions, we also offer assessments, therapy sessions, and behaviour support within the school environment. We recognize the significance of a holistic approach to psychological services, which is why we provide support in the home environment as well, assisting with specific skills and accommodating individual family needs.

To foster social skills and confidence, we organize group sessions that are designed to promote growth and development. Stay updated with our upcoming group sessions to ensure your child has the opportunity to enhance their social abilities.

At Coastal Minds, we are proud to work closely with Dr Maggie Bailey, a clinical neuropsychologist. This collaboration allows us to provide comprehensive and specialized services to our clients, ensuring their overall well-being.

As professionals in the field of psychology, we understand the importance of balance in life. When we are not serving our clients, we value our roles as mothers, daughters, sisters, wives, and other social roles that enrich our lives. This personal connection drives our passion for helping families and individuals achieve their full potential.
