About MyClinicalPsych
Welcome to MyClinicalPsych, a private clinic located in Thirroul, Australia. Our clinic specializes in providing family-focused psychological services to children aged 0-12 years and parents/carers experiencing mental health conditions. We are dedicated to improving the emotional well-being of parents and their infants before and during pregnancy, as well as during the three years following the birth of a baby.
At MyClinicalPsych, we offer evidence-based psychological therapy that can be tailored to meet the specific needs of each client. Our initial assessment stage involves including the client's family, especially for young clients, in order to gain a well-informed view of their needs. Treatment may then proceed for the family or individual, depending on the benefits to the client.
Our highly experienced clinical psychologist, Dr. Phoebe Carter, has advanced training and 15 years of experience in assessing and treating a wide range of psychological difficulties experienced by children and families. Dr. Carter utilizes various therapeutic approaches, including Family Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Her work is strongly influenced by attachment theory and family systems theories, which she applies when working with children and their families.
While Dr. Carter enjoys working with clients of all ages and backgrounds, she has a particular passion for working with parents before and during pregnancy, as well as with children and their parents in early childhood. Her areas of expertise include parent/child relationships, challenging life transitions, adjustment issues, infertility, antenatal and postnatal depression and anxiety, grief and loss issues in the perinatal period, and stress management.
In addition to providing therapy, Dr. Carter also offers supervision to registered health professionals and trainees. She has published research in the areas of cognitive impairment, late-life depression, personality disorder, trauma, and expressive language difficulty.
To make our services more accessible, we accept Medicare rebates with a Mental Health Care Plan from a GP, Psychiatrist, or Pediatrician. Our consultations are 50 minutes long, during which we aim to gain a comprehensive understanding of your current difficulties and discuss treatment options tailored to your needs. Ongoing consultations can be arranged on a weekly, fortnightly, or as-needed basis.
Parents bringing children for therapy will be involved in sessions to some extent, depending on the child's age and presenting problem. Our psychologist will use their clinical judgment to determine the best treatment approach for the child, which will inform the level of parental involvement required.
Therapy at MyClinicalPsych may involve exploring and understanding thoughts, feelings, and behaviors alongside a trusted health professional. While the ultimate goal is to generate positive emotions, therapy may also involve remembering unpleasant events and tolerating difficult emotions in order to move forward.
We welcome both self-referrals and referrals from GPs or Psychiatrists, which entitle you to a Medicare rebate. The Medicare rebate allows for a minimum of $129.55 per session, available for up to 10 sessions per calendar year. Private health fund rebates are also available with appropriate cover.
Please note that all scheduled appointment times are reserved in advance and set aside specifically for you. If you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment, we kindly ask for at least 24 hours' notice. Failure to do so will result in a cancellation fee of $120, which cannot be claimed through Medicare or private health cover.
For additional support, we recommend utilizing Parentline, a telephone counseling, information, and referral service for parents and carers of children aged 0-18 in NSW. The FaCS Helpline (132 111) is also available 24/7 to report children at risk of harm, and there is a helpline for anyone seeking assistance with alcohol or other drug use.
We are conveniently located at 2 Raymond Road, Thirroul, NSW, Australia, 2515. If you have any further questions or would like to schedule an appointment, please don't hesitate to contact us. We look forward to supporting you and your family on your journey towards improved well-being and positive relationships.
