Towards wellbeing with Shoalhaven Psychology Services
Creating mobility for stability
Shoalhaven Psychology Services is a leading private practice of psychologists serving the Shoalhaven and Illawarra.
Our team of psychologists work with people and schools across Nowra and the greater Shoalhaven and Illawarra regions to provide counselling and help people resolve issues they feel are getting in the way of reaching their potential. At Shoalhaven Psychology Services we believe in whole well-being and addressing all aspects of the self internally and externally to attain capacity for processing and adapting in life.
Seeking help does not mean you have ‘failed’, you cannot cope, or there is something ‘wrong’ with you. In the process of therapy, we are learning about the different layers of our consciousness and experience, in physiological, biological, mental and social contexts.
We will support your courage in finding new ways to grow and experience transformational change. Whether you come to us as a private client, with a referral from your GP, as an NDIS or iCare client, or through your insurance or employer, our team is highly motivated and give you more than 100% every time.
We See You
Commonly known as the “queen of common sense”, Maggie Dent is well respected and loved as one of Australia’s favourite parenting authors and educators. We reached out to Maggie as part of our #celebratingyoungpeople campaign, she responded immediately with ‘yes’ and made a video of her message for young people.
We asked Maggie: What do you love about being around young people? What is a message you would like to share with young people?
Maggie’s answers are truly moving and honest. Our hope is all young people will feel the love and value they bring to our lives and communities. As Maggie says “figure out who you are and give that to the world, and start as soon as you can”.
