Psychology.
At All Abilities Therapy for Kids and Teens, our team includes experienced paediatric psychologists in Noosa who support children and young people to better understand their emotions, behaviour, and thinking, and to develop confidence, coping skills, and resilience.
❋ Our Approach
We take an evidence-based, neuro-affirming and child-centred approach, providing a safe and supportive space where every child feels seen, heard, and understood. We aim to build safety and connection first — creating a welcoming environment where young people feel understood, respected, and empowered.
❋How We Work
We offer clinic-based, school-based, home-based and telehealth appointments, and work with children and teens from 4 to 18 years old.
❋ Our Team
Our Psychology team based in Noosaville, Sunshine Coast is experienced in child development, neurodiversity, behaviour support, cognitive assessment, and supporting complex presentations. We value and celebrate every neurotype and work collaboratively with families, educators and our multidisciplinary team to promote participation, self-advocacy, and wellbeing across home, school, and community environments.

What To Expect.
1. Get in Touch
Call our clinic or complete our online intake form. Our friendly admin team will contact you to answer questions, understand your needs, and book the right appointment with the right clinician.
2. Initial Appointment
Your Psychologist meets with parents/caregivers to learn about your child’s strengths, challenges, and goals. Depending on your child’s age and needs, your child may also attend the first session.
3. Therapy
Your Psychologist delivers an individualised therapy plan using evidence-based, neuro-affirming approaches tailored to your child.
Sessions may include:
Child-focused therapy (play-based, CBT-informed, regulation strategies)
Parent coaching and practical home strategies
Collaboration with schools and other professionals
We focus on building trust, supporting autonomy, and empowering families.
4. Assessment (If Needed)
Where appropriate, your Psychologist may recommend assessment to better understand your child’s needs. This may include observations, interviews, questionnaires, and standardised tools, completed across one or more sessions.
5. Feedback & Goal Setting
We meet with you to discuss findings, strengths, and recommendations. Together, we set meaningful goals and provide a written report to guide ongoing support.
We offer block-based therapy for our NDIS clients, designed to provide more focused and meaningful support for each child. Therapy is delivered in structured blocks across the school term, followed by a review and planning period during the holidays to assess progress and set next steps. This approach allows our team to deliver more targeted, goal-focused therapy that adapts to your child’s evolving needs.
Our clinic proudly supports families looking for a paediatric Psychologist in Noosaville, and across the Sunshine Coast.
