Psychological Therapy Services in Lane Cove
Move from surviving to thriving
Supporting you towards a more meaningful, fulfilling life
Welcome to The Psychology Cove
Our Approach
At The Psychology Cove we take a holistic approach, using evidence-based psychological therapy to uncover pathways to suit each individual, along with practical tools to support you in your daily life and overall wellbeing.
We offer both face-to-face and telehealth appointments.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a structured, collaborative and goal-focused approach. It helps you identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, understand how they affect your wellbeing, and build healthier skills and habits for managing immediate difficulties and future challenges.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT helps you develop psychological flexibility—the ability to respond more effectively when life feels difficult. It combines mindfulness, acceptance, values clarification and practical skills to help you manage painful thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful action.
Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)
IPT is a time-limited approach that focuses on the relationship between mental health and interpersonal difficulties. Therapy may explore changes, conflict, grief or relationship concerns, while strengthening communication and social support to help you manage interpersonal distress.
