Multi-disciplinary
Research has identified that exercise and psychology is associated with decreases in stereotypic (self-stimulatory) behaviours, hyperactivity, aggression, self-injury, anger and destructiveness. PsychPhys™ aims to reduce challenging/unhelpful behaviours by offering programs that are both physically and cognitively stimulating.
PsychPhys experience
PsychPhys™ is not about offering another similar service for the community – PsychPhys™ is built on the entire ‘PsychPhys™ experience’ that takes place every time a client participates in the program. This experience is a combination of tailored Psychology and Exercise Physiology programs, facilitated by positive and non-judgmental professionals who greet our clients with a smile and work with our clients to reach their goals.
Client referrals
This point of difference is further enforced through PsychPhys™’ on-going commitment to our Quick Response Frameworks, that ensures NO WAITING LISTS FOR SERVICES. We offer commencement within 24 hours of referral received with a ‘one stop shop philosophy’ where end to end programs are facilitated by the same clinicians under the same roof.
Holistic approach
At PsychPhys™, we want every single client to feel supported in meeting their goals. Each program is developed to focus on a holistic model of care. From our amazing team of highly qualified; and experienced Psychologists, Exercise Physiologists, Specialist Behaviour Practitioners, to our professional collaborations and dedicated support networks and passionate corporate employees, everyone embodies PsychPhys™ mission and values, and remains committed to providing a world class program experience.
Assessments
PsychPhys™ offers a thorough assessment process in order to provide a robust, valuable set of information. When discussing suitability for our program, we place value in meeting with loved ones/carers for an Initial Program Assessment prior to formal program Psychology and Exercise Physiology Assessments, which are conducted to allow the opportunity to make an informed decision about moving forward with the program.
We provide comprehensive reports detailing the outcomes of assessments; and program
updates that include recommendations tailored specifically to individual needs/goals.
