Our Approach

At Darlinghurst Psychologists, we believe seeking support should feel straightforward, welcoming, and safe. Conveniently located near the CBD, Surry Hills, and Kings Cross, our clinic provides easy access for people across Central Eastern Sydney.

We are an inclusive practice, proudly supporting people from all walks of life, including those from LGBTQ+ communities. The team of psychologists understand the unique challenges that can come with identity, relationships, discrimination, and belonging, and we offer a safe, affirming space where you can explore these experiences without judgment.

Whether you’re looking to better manage stress, navigate anxiety or depression, or work through more complex concerns such as trauma, we tailor therapy to your individual needs. The team of psychologists use only approaches supported by strong research, ensuring that you receive care that is effective, practical, and compassionate.

Our Services

At Darlinghurst Psychologists, we provide individual therapy both face-to-face in our Darlinghurst clinic and via telehealth, giving you the flexibility to choose the option that best suits your lifestyle. We work closely with GPs to support patients with Mental Health Care Plans (MHCPs) and also accept clients with many popular private health insurers.

Whether you prefer in-person sessions or the convenience of online appointments, our goal is to make high-quality psychological care accessible, personalised, and easy to arrange.

We are committed to delivering evidence-based care, drawing only on treatments that have been rigorously researched and shown to be effective.
