Play Psychology Perth 136 Balcatta Road, Balcatta, Western Australia 6021

Welcome to Play Psychology Perth, located at 136 Balcatta Road in Balcatta, Australia. As an establishment focused on health and well-being, we are a point of interest for individuals seeking professional psychological services. Our lead psychologist holds a Bachelor of Arts with First Class Honours in Psychology, as well as a Graduate Diploma of Education with a major in School Psychology. With a special interest in child and adolescent psychology, we work closely with school-aged individuals and their families to provide comprehensive support.

With previous experience as a School Psychologist in the public-school sector, we have gained valuable knowledge of school-based interventions and processes to support students with special needs, learning difficulties, behavioral issues, and social-emotional concerns. We understand the importance of collaboration between parents and schools, and we aim to assist parents in navigating this relationship to ensure their child's educational needs are met effectively.

Having worked in both primary and high school settings, as well as at WA's largest special education school, we have accumulated over 7 years of experience in supporting children and adolescents with complex social and emotional mental health issues, as well as learning disabilities. We recognize that learning is influenced by various factors, including learning style, cognitive ability, mental health, motivation, sense of achievement, and social demands. To gain a comprehensive understanding of your child's unique learning profile and educational needs, we offer educational assessments. Based on the results, we provide tailored strategies and recommendations to help your child reach their educational potential.

At Play Psychology Perth, we provide ongoing support in a safe, relaxed, and non-judgmental environment for children, youth, and their families. Our approach is rooted in understanding and embracing the individual's unique needs, strengths, and challenges. We believe that lasting change occurs through a trusting therapeutic relationship, where topics are explored safely, meaningful goals are collaboratively set, and tailored interventions are utilized. We work closely with children, youth, and their caregivers to address a range of presenting issues, including behavioral difficulties, social challenges, emotional concerns, and learning difficulties.

Our lead psychologist is trained in various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Mindfulness, and Play Therapy. Through these evidence-based approaches, we aim to provide the most effective and appropriate interventions for each individual.

We are currently accepting bookings, with appointments available from January 16th, 2023. If you are seeking professional psychological support for yourself or your child, we invite you to contact us and begin your journey towards positive change and growth.
