What is Clinical Psychology?

​

Clinical psychology focuses on understanding, assessing, and treating a wide range of mental health concerns using therapies that are backed by scientific research. This means that the treatments we offer - known as evidence-based therapies - have been shown through research to be effective, safe, and meaningful for improving mental health and wellbeing.

 

At our practice, we provide psychological services to adolescents (strictly aged 14+) and adults across a range of through a full range of emotional and psychological challenges. Our clinical psychologists use their extensive training and experience to help you understand your current and past difficulties, select a treatment approach that feels right for you, and work collaboratively to bring about lasting, positive change.

Working Together to Support Your Progress

​

At The Glow Centre, we believe therapy is most effective when it’s a collaborative process. While your clinician brings expertise, guidance, and support, your active involvement is just as important in creating meaningful and lasting change. Attending sessions regularly, being open to sharing your experiences, and practicing strategies between sessions all help to build momentum toward your goals. Many clients find that reflecting on our conversations, noticing patterns in daily life, and trying new approaches outside of sessions deepens their progress. Change takes time, and your commitment to engaging in the process — both during and between sessions — plays a vital role in supporting your growth and wellbeing.
