Registered Psychologists primarily support individuals through counselling and assessments. They also assist by running intervention groups, providing professional learning, and consulting with stakeholders. Psychologists use their training and experience to help with mental health concerns, identity (e.g., Autism Spectrum, Gender, Sexual), behavior (e.g., ADHD), learning needs (e.g., Specific Learning Disorder), and disabilities (e.g., Intellectual Developmental Disorder), while supporting individuals in working towards personal goals. Psychologists cannot prescribe medication. Sessions with a psychologist usually last 50 minutes to 1 hour and may occur weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. Psychiatrists, on the other hand, are medical doctors who focus on prescribing and managing medication to support individuals with their mental health needs. Their appointments are usually shorter and less frequent, mainly focusing on how the medication is working.
At Daily Growth Psychology, neurodiversity-affirming practice is a cornerstone of our therapy and assessment services. We understand that each individual is unique, and our evidence-based approach is tailored to support their personal needs. This approach not only respects neurological diversity but also encourages a more inclusive mindset in broader educational and social contexts. Neurodiversity-affirming practice acknowledges and respects the diverse neurological makeups of individuals, particularly in how they experience and interact with the world. This practice emphasizes validating clients' unique ways of processing information and experiences, rather than attempting to change or "normalize" their behaviors.
