The Psychology service aims to make a meaningful impact on the well-being of our patients and the community through a variety of assessment and treatment approaches.

Psychological assessments may involve interviews, questionnaires, norm-referenced psychological tests, and observation. These assessments can help to understand cognitive deficits and also guide advice on management or recommendations for individual or group-based interventions.

Psychological therapy assists individuals in learning to cope with challenging emotions and situations through a variety of customised strategies.
