Human minds are messy, brilliant, painful, and complex.

Understanding your mind changes everything.

At Tara Psychology, therapy and assessments begin with understanding what it's like to be you – how your mind moves, and how life can sometimes feel too heavy or overwhelming to make sense of alone. It's about slowing things down just enough to notice what's really happening underneath. With time and support, that awareness becomes the ground to rebuild from compassionate understanding.

 

Support is available for people navigating autism, ADHD, trauma, anxiety, depression, and other challenges. Therapy is trauma-informed, neuroaffirming, and respectful of each person's story.

 

Comprehensive adult autism and ADHD assessments are also available, with insights that bring clarity and meaning to daily life.

 

Services are available online across Australia and in-person in Footscray. Meet your psychologist.
