We're committed towards helping the people of Hobart, live a happier, healthier and more meaningful life.
Seriously, psychology isn't just a job to us! We are absolutely motivated to support you, in order to transform your life for the better.
We are centrally located on the Eastern Shore (obviously), in Rosny, just over the bridge (10 min max from center of Hobart - it's really not that far ;) )
Sometimes, seeking help from a mental health professional is the best step you can take, towards embracing and changing the life you have. We genuinely live, eat and breathe all things mental health.
We're a dedicated bunch - We now have 9 Psychologists at our Rosny Park office.
We'll be happy to guide you through what ever life is throwing you at the moment and are dedicated to supporting our community through this global pandemic.

CRISIS NUMBERS AND SERVICES
For urgent and immediate support, please be aware that there are a number of 24/7 services you can contact. We are unable to provide immediate and crisis support, unless you are an existing client, on our caseload.
Typically, wait times for a private psychologist are 4-8 weeks (sometimes less, sometimes more). We endeavour to book you in as soon as possible and often cancellations can come up, so you may not be waiting that long.
Please don't hesitate to contact a crisis service for immediate support.
MEDIA AND ARTICLES
Here are some Media articles, we have contributed to, in regard to suicide awareness, workplace bullying and helping our community.
Get in touch with Sarah Purvey if you would like a contribution from her for media.
Sarah has recently been interviewed on ABC Radio and Hit 100.9 about COVID-19 and about her book release,
Keep Sane and Parent On.
LET'S CHALK ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH
The girls at Eastern Shore Psychology brought the people of Eastern Shore together, to spread messages of hope on the streets. "Let's Chalk About Mental Health" kicked off Suicide Awareness Month in September 2018.
An article from HCF about the effects of and how to manage workplace bullying, with a contribution from Sarah Purvey
Jimmy & Nath were joined by clinical psychologist Sarah Purvey from Eastern Shore Psychology who chatted about talking to your kids about COVID-19 - especially when your mental health might be taking a hit at the moment as well.
The Suicide Call Back Service provides immediate support to anyone feeling suicidal. In addition, they can provide ongoing support through up to six 50 minute telephone counselling sessions that will provide you with longer term support. The Suicide Call Back Service also offers online counselling.
