Our Culture

We practice what we preach in many ways at iPsychology. Our team catch ups are all about connecting, reflecting, and enjoying ourselves and each other. We value our own mental health and each of us have been in the client chair. We encourage our therapists to take regular breaks from the therapy room and enjoy being ‘ourselves’ as well as Therapists.

 

We get regular exercise, eat reasonably well (as Mindfulness can be done with chocolate!) and have regular catch ups. We might be seen at local restaurants having a laugh, walking along the beach or the lovely streets of Edithvale and Lower Templestowe. Our annual Doughnut eating competition is always a lot of fun!

Our model of supervision sets us apart from other private practices, creating invaluable learning and professional development opportunities for our team. The team value supporting one another and being able to have a laugh outside of the therapy room.
