Servicing the Community
Salamanca Psychology offers specialised psychological services
for individuals and families needing assessment and/or treatment
for psychological problems. Our group adheres to the principles
of evidence-based practice, and our psychological therapy
approach is based on the scientific foundations of cognitive-behaviour
therapy.
Salamanca Psychology was founded in 2004 to provide a facility
for medical, legal, educational, government and community
groups to access when specialist clinical, forensic and neuropsychological
skills are required for child, adolescent and adult clients.
Professional Psychological Practice
The psychologists at Salamanca Psychology all have significant
experience and training in their areas of speciality. They
are members of the Australian Psychological Society (APS),
and of the Colleges of Clinical Psychologists and Clinical
Neuropsychologists. They teach in the postgraduate clinical
psychology program at the University of Tasmania. Our clinical
team has a range of experience and training at international
and Australian universities, agencies and hospitals.
All psychologists are actively involved in research and many
publish widely in national and international journals. Salamanca
Psychology practitioners are registered with the Psychologists
Registration Board of Tasmania.
How do I make a Referral?
Members of the Public -
You do not need a referral from a doctor.
You can call Salamanca Psychology on 03 6224 1633
to discuss your needs with our receptionist, and to make an
appointment.
Alternatively,
Psychology services now attract Medicare rebates when you or
your children are referred by a GP on a Mental Health Care
Plan (2710). There are conditions that apply and these
matters will be discussed with your doctor.
There is a maximum of 12 standard sessions claimable per
calendar year with a review by the referrer after the first
6 sessions. An extension may be granted under some
circumstances.
Patients with a Health Care Concession Card or financial
difficulties can be bulk billed.
Lawyers, Medical Practitioners, Psychologists,
Allied Health and Education Professionals -
Referrals can be made in writing or by telephoning Salamanca
Psychology on 03 6224 1633 to discuss your particular
needs. All psychologists can be contacted by email.
