Find a psychologist in Adelaide who suits you or your child: our psychologists and occupational therapists see children, teens and adults for therapy and assessments, in a neuro-affirming way. You can see us at our Salisbury and Seacliff clinics, and psychology therapy is also available by telehealth anywhere in Australia, with NDIS, Medicare or private funding. A free first call with our team helps match you with the right person.
Pick what’s hard right nowBooking opens our online form. The first call with our team is free, and we usually reply within 1–2 business days.
Pick anything that fits. We’ll show you how our psychologists can help.
Nothing you pick is saved or sent.
Start with four things: what you’d like help with, who it’s for, where you’d like to be seen and how you’re paying. Then look for someone whose focus matches. If you’d feel more comfortable with a practitioner of a particular gender, or someone who shares your language or culture, tell us on the free first call. You don’t need to have it all worked out: matching you with the right person is part of what our team does.
You might say: Support for my child
Children often need support with feelings, learning, play, sensory needs or everyday routines. Our child psychologists offer therapy, and our paediatric OTs build everyday skills through play, in clinic, at home or at school.
You might say: Support for a teen or adult
Teenagers and adults come to us for support with mental health, independence, daily routines and big life changes. Our psychologists offer talking therapies, and our OTs work on the practical skills and strategies that make everyday life easier.
You might say: Anxiety, trauma or grief
Worry that won’t switch off, the effects of something painful that happened, or a loss that’s hard to carry can affect sleep, work, study and relationships. Our psychologists offer compassionate, evidence-based therapy at a pace that feels safe for you.
You might say: An autism or ADHD assessment
An assessment can help you understand how you or your child thinks, learns and experiences the world. Our psychologists assess for autism, ADHD, learning differences, giftedness and FASD, and explain the results in plain language. Ann Parker is our assessment psychologist: she assesses autism from age 3, and ADHD for children and teens aged 5 to 17.
You might say: Someone who understands neurodivergence
Neuro-affirming support works with how your brain works, not against it. Our practitioners focus on strengths, sensory needs and the goals that matter to you, and never try to change who you are.
You might say: NDIS-funded support
We’re a registered NDIS provider, so participants can use their plan funding for psychology, occupational therapy, positive behaviour support and dietetics. We accept plan-managed, self-managed and NDIA-managed plans. All of our therapy practitioners see NDIS participants. Assessments are privately funded.
Book online, refer, or call 08 8166 4700. We usually reply within 1–2 business days.
Our team talks through what you’re looking for and suggests who fits. You can also ask for someone by name. This call is free.
You meet your psychologist, OT or other practitioner in clinic, at home or by telehealth, and set goals together. The first appointment is charged.
Feeling comfortable with your practitioner matters. If the fit isn’t right, tell us and we’ll talk about other options. You can switch practitioner.

Fees as listed on our fees and funding page. The session fee is the same for private, Medicare and NDIS clients, and it is the 2026–27 NDIS price limit for psychologists. We don’t bulk bill. Our psychologists are general psychologists, so the Medicare rebate is $101.55 (item 80110, from 1 July 2026), which leaves a gap of $151.44.1 The rebate changes each 1 July.
No referral needed. Book directly and pay per session.
You can pay privately and claim back from your insurer. Most funds let you claim through their app, depending on your cover. We don’t process claims on the day, so you pay in full at your session.
Ask your GP for a Mental Health Treatment Plan and a referral to us. Under Better Access you can claim a rebate for up to 10 individual sessions each calendar year: the first course is up to 6 sessions, then your GP reviews your plan and refers you for the rest.2 You pay the gap between our fee and the rebate.
Funding for the support in your plan, then an online referral. We accept plan-managed, self-managed and NDIA-managed plans.
These are the psychologists and occupational therapists you can see at CHSA. Each card shows who they see and what they focus on, with a link to their full profile. Clinics and days are on each profile. Our positive behaviour support practitioners, dietitians and assessment team will be added here soon.

It’s your choice. What matters most is feeling safe and comfortable with the person you see, and some people feel more at ease with a practitioner of a particular gender. Tell our team on the free first call and we’ll take your preference into account when we suggest who to see. We value every practitioner equally, and requests can be for cultural or personal reasons. We only show a practitioner’s gender on our site if they have chosen, in writing, to be listed that way.
Yes, for private sessions: you can book directly. To claim a Medicare rebate you need a GP referral and a Mental Health Treatment Plan. NDIS participants need funding for psychology in their plan, then an online referral.
Our psychology fee is $252.99 an hour for private, Medicare and NDIS clients. With a GP referral and a Mental Health Treatment Plan, Medicare rebates $101.55 a session, so the gap is $151.44. Every service’s fees are on our fees and funding page.
It depends on what you need. Psychologists provide talking therapies and assessments. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose and prescribe medication. Many people start with their GP or a psychologist, who can refer on to a psychiatrist if that would help.
Feeling unheard, judged or unsafe, or feeling that your goals and consent aren’t respected, are signs the fit isn’t right. You can raise it with your practitioner or with our team, and we’ll talk about seeing someone else. Clients can switch practitioner.
