Therapeutic services at Positive Minds Australia support children and young people in building confidence, emotional regulation, and social-emotional wellbeing in a safe, compassionate space.
Our allied health and education team brings together psychologists, teachers and experienced practitioners who understand child development, learning, behaviour and wellbeing. Together, they work collaboratively with families and schools to provide holistic, child-centred support.
Drawing on a range of evidence-based approaches — including Emotions Coaching, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and counselling — our practitioners work through a strengths-based lens that celebrates each child’s unique potential.
Our first session is for parents without their child present, enabling a confidential space to share a child’s story openly. Together, we develop a tailored plan and match your child with the therapist best suited to their needs.
Progress is measured using SDQ and DASS-Y assessments, and where needed, we also provide Cognitive, Academic, Learning and Attention (ADHD) Assessments led by our in-house specialist.
Parents regularly describe their experience as “life-changing”, sharing that therapy has helped them reconnect with their child and restore harmony at home.
At Positive Minds Australia, we combine decades of professional experience with genuine compassion, evidence-based practice and a deep commitment to connection and community — so every person who walks through our doors feels understood, supported, and truly cared for as they grow.

“Thank you for providing such a warm and caring environment/team for Adelaide families – we had a wobbly week with our son, and having lovely Nikki and the whole team to turn to was invaluable.”
