How can we help?

Psychology Melbourne can offer people suffering post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) a highly successful psychological treatment called Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help reduce the distress of traumatic memories.

It can be an alternative treatment to some psychiatric medications and does not include extended exposure to the distressing memories or detailed descriptions of the trauma.

We have a large team of male and female relationship psychologists who provide in-person and online EMDR counselling. They are available six days a week, for sessions both before and after working hours, as well as all day on Saturdays.

How do I make an appointment?

EMDR Counselling

For online EMDR counselling appointments you can book online or call our Reception team on 1300 161 639 or email us at info@psychologymelbourne.com.au or use the chat box on this website.

Reception will find an appointment time that suits you best and will reserve 3 future appointments in the diary so that you can keep your place in your psychologist’s diary. Appointments after that will be made between you and your consultant.

We understand that changes to your appointments are sometimes necessary, but we urge you to notify us as soon as possible to avoid cancellation fees. You will be sent an SMS reminder four (4) days before your appointment.

For in-person appointments we have strict precautions in place at all our locations for your safety. If you are feeling unwell, have any symptoms of fever, or have tested positive for COVID-19, we ask you to use our online counselling services until you are well again.

Please bring your Mental Health Care Plan to your first session or email it to us at info@psychologymelbourne.com.au. Alternatively, you can ask your GP to fax this through to us on 03 9957 8122.
