Adelaide Psychologists & Therapists | For your unique needs!
We are all different and find that different styles of therapy resonate with different people. Besides the obvious need for skills and experience, even the personality of the therapist and how they relate to their clients have an impact in 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 see a 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.
At Kensington Psychology & Well-Being, all our therapists fulfil those criteria and more. Every one has their own style and character and area of practice they are most effective in.
