CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGISTS IN ADELAIDE FOCUSED ON YOUR WHOLE WELLBEING
Kensington Psychology & Well-Being is a clinic with a focus on you as a whole person – your background, current challenges, and what brings you to wellness. We offer clients a warm, professional practice dedicated to offering the very best therapy or clinical psychology treatments for your unique needs, delivered as an evidence-based treatment.
We pride ourselves on providing a safe and compassionate practice where all individuals, regardless of cultural, gender or sexual identity, can receive equitable mental health care and support services.
Our practice is located in Adelaide's eastern suburbs, just a short drive from Norwood, where you can consult with some of best psychologists who are not only highly experienced professionals but also empathetic and understanding.
These may include generalised anxiety, struggling to naturally connect with others, sleeping problems, withdrawal, depression, and a sense of life just not flowing well and enjoyably.
It can be lonely being in a disconnected relationship. All of us yearn to be loved and feel truly accepted, but sometimes despite our best efforts, that connection in our relationships evades us.
Psychological trauma can have far-reaching consequences – emotional, physical, and relational. Immediately after the event, shock and denial are typical.
Psychological trauma can have far-reaching consequences for your health - emotional, physical, and relational. Immediately after the event, shock and denial are typical; our team addresses trauma concerns, starting with a psychological assessment.
Depression can affect people of all ages. It can be debilitating, and yet so many put on a brave face as they struggle on. One in five Australians are affected at some stage of their lives.
Anxiety has many faces: from incessant worry to over-busy minds, panic, stress, catastrophising, and physical symptoms like insomnia, IBS, migraines and headaches.

We provide psychological treatment for adults and individuals, couples, and families. Based on over twenty years of successful private practice experience in Australia, our treatment sessions are always client-focused, high quality, compassionate and tailored to the needs of the client.
Whether you need help with anxiety, depression, stress, a difficult life event, relationship concerns, or to cope with a traumatic experience, our trained psychologists can offer expert and effective help. Our clinic is committed to matching you with the right psychologist for your concerns who can assist in planning your programme.
What Can You Expect From Therapy?
We offer a range of mental health care services for people who want to make positive changes in their lives and enhance their health well-being. We believe in client-centred care, and that one size doesn't fit all. Therapy with us is tailor-made, holistic, whole-person care. It is a collaborative process tailored to your needs, helping you reach your life goals. Together, we set your goals and plan your therapy programme to best help you achieve measurable change.
Our pragmatic and evidence-based approach ensures you have skills to apply beyond your therapy sessions. We help you work on your health issues from various perspectives - emotional, cognitive, physical, and behavioural. Sometimes practical strategies and tools may be given to practice between therapy sessions. This ensures you experience immediate short-term benefits from the process while promoting good long-term change in your life.

Our Psychologists & Therapists Are Here for Your Unique Needs!
We are all different and find that different styles of treatment resonate with different people. Besides the obvious need for skills and experience, even the personality of the clinical psychologist and how therapists relate to their clients have an impact on how we experience our therapeutic journey.
One thing we know for certain – a therapist must be kind, compassionate, a good listener, effective in their help, and genuinely care about our wellbeing. After all, we schedule appointments with a clinical psychologist in our moment of need when we feel most vulnerable and uncertain, and sometimes it takes a lot of courage to make the call.
