Online Psychology & Service Areas

Forward Thinking Psychological Services is a fully online psychology practice. This is a deliberate and considered choice, designed to make high-quality psychological support more accessible, flexible, and affordable.

Why We Work Online

Providing therapy via secure telehealth allows us to:

• Lower the cost of our services by removing overheads associated with physical clinic rooms

• Improve accessibility, for both clients in regional locations or areas with fewer health services, and those in busy urban centres where waitlists can be excessive

• Offer greater flexibility and availability, including early morning or evening appointments where possible

• Allow clients to attend therapy from their own space, which many people find more comfortable and less stressful - particularly in communities where it is inevitable to see someone you know in a waiting room.

For many clients, online therapy also removes practical barriers such as travel time, parking, fatigue, or managing health conditions alongside appointments.

Simple, Straightforward Online Appointments

Our online processes are intentionally clear, reliable, and easy to follow.

• Appointments are conducted via secure, user-friendly platforms. We steer away from cheap or budget providers, and utilise platforms endorsed by Australian Health Professionals and Governing Bodies

• No complex software, hidden fees, or unexpected changes

• Consistent processes across sessions

• Clear communication about bookings, payments, and documentation

Our clinicians have been delivering telehealth psychology for several years and have carefully selected systems that prioritise simplicity, privacy, and reliability - so you can focus on the therapy, not the technology.

Based on the Central Coast, Supporting NSW

We maintain positive working relationships with:

• Local GPs

We are deeply committed to contributing to improved mental health care on the Central Coast and across the broader NSW community.
