WHO WE SEE
Psychological assessment and treatment.
Brook Psychology provides psychological treatment for a range of presentations, including anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, adjustment difficulties, stress and other emotional or behavioural concerns. Our clinicians have differing interests and experience; reception can assist with general enquiries about suitability.
We see adults and young people, with age range and availability depending on the individual psychologist. Please check suitability for a particular referral before arranging an appointment.
Ellenbrook is our primary practice. Our secondary Karrinyup location focuses particularly on workers’ compensation referrals, including psychological responses to physical injury, persistent pain and workplace-related psychological injury.
