Young Adult Mental Health
The Mind Clan is a Melbourne-based Psychology service specifically for young adults aged 18 to 35. Our team have a strong focus on the emotional, social, physiological, and identity formation challenges that can plague young adults in their transition from adolescence to adulthood. We pride ourselves on taking a holistic, and laid back approach to treatment and value the importance of humour, playfulness and creativity in therapy.

Our treatment
approach
Our team takes a holistic approach to therapy with young adults. We focus on multiple facets of the individual and are aware that one approach does not work for all. Our psychologists use traditional talk therapy as well as expressive (e.g. art and movement), and experiential therapies (e.g. visualizations), and have strong understanding of the mind-body connection to help guide our clients to a deeper understanding of themselves.
Psychological interventions we use include:
-
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
-
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
-
Schema Therapy
-
Eye Movement and Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR)
-
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
-
Somatic/body-based interventions
-
Attachment-based interventions
-
Play/creative interventions
-
Psychodynamic therapy
