Book HereAdelaide-based psychology practice for children, adolescents and young adults
Umbrella Psychology is an Adelaide-based psychology practice that is home to psychologists who have chosen to exclusively work with children, teenagers, young people and their families. Neuroscience research tells us that the brain does not fully develop until the age of 25. Up until then, children, adolescents and young people face a range of challenges. They are learning and do many things for the first time. Their lives are strongly influenced by family, the education system and their peers. We believe that when facing challenges, children, teenagers and young adults need someone with knowledge and understanding of the factors unique to being a young person. That is why we created Umbrella Psychology.
How we can help
Sometimes mental health can impact on development. When children and young people are feeling that they are able to effectively manage their emotions, they are free to engage in study or work and the activities and interests they want to pursue. They are able to develop meaningful and fulfilling relationships with friends and family. We are here to facilitate this process.
Our psychologists
Our psychologists have focused their practice on seeing people from ages 2-25 years. They have extensive experience in a variety of roles in both the public sector and private practice. We are able to provide alternatives for those with a preference for a male or female psychologist. Learn more about our psychologists here.
