How we work

At b.psychology, we provide evidence-based psychological assessment and therapy delivered within a thoughtful, relational, and collaborative framework. Our services are tailored to the individual, informed by clinical formulation, and grounded in ethical and professional practice.

What to Expect in Therapy

Therapy at b.psychology is structured, reflective, and collaborative. Your psychologist will take time to understand your concerns, complete appropriate assessment and formulation, and work with you to develop a shared understanding of what is happening and how therapy can help.

Sessions may involve a combination of:

  • Evidence-based strategies for symptom management

  • Exploration of emotional and relational patterns

  • Development of insight, regulation, and coping skills

  • Ongoing review of progress and therapeutic focus

The pace and direction of therapy are guided by your goals, needs, and readiness, within a safe, respectful, and professionally held therapeutic relationship.

Our clinicians draw from a range of evidence-based and depth-oriented therapeutic models. The approach used is guided by clinical formulation, client preferences, and the nature of the presenting concerns.

Approaches across the practice include:

Therapeutic Approaches

Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT-informed work)

Cognitive Analytic Therapy integrates relational, developmental, and cognitive perspectives to help identify repeating patterns that contribute to distress. Therapy focuses on recognising these patterns and developing new, more adaptive ways of relating to self and others.

Psychoanalytic and psychodynamic psychotherapy

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on understanding how past experiences, unconscious patterns, and relationships shape current thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. Therapy supports deeper self-understanding and lasting change through reflective exploration within a safe therapeutic relationship.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps individuals develop psychological flexibility by learning to respond differently to difficult thoughts and emotions. Therapy focuses on building a meaningful life guided by personal values rather than symptom avoidance.

Trauma-Informed & Attachment-Focused Approaches

Trauma-informed and attachment-focused therapy prioritises safety, trust, and emotional regulation when working with the impact of trauma and disrupted relationships. Therapy supports understanding trauma responses and fostering more secure ways of relating to self and others.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours that contribute to distress. It is a structured, evidence-based approach commonly used for anxiety, depression, and related conditions.

Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT)

Mentalization-Based Therapy supports individuals to better understand their own thoughts, emotions, and intentions, as well as those of others. This approach is particularly helpful for improving emotional regulation, relationships, and responses to interpersonal stress.
