Welcome to Spoken Word Psychology
We are a dedicated psychology practice based in the western suburbs of Melbourne offering compassionate and professional telehealth services to individuals throughout Australia. We primarily work with adult clients offering individualised support for a range of mental health difficulties.
We understand that finding the right words to express your struggles can be challenging and confronting, yet is an important first step toward achieving positive mental health and well being.
As we expand our team and services, we look forward to offering face-to-face sessions within the western suburbs of Melbourne in the near future.
