Substance Use Counselling in South East Queensland, QLD

I'm Jay Beckley, like most psychologists I enjoy supporting people that have a range of problems. Here is what you can expect from a psychology session with me. Firstly, a conversation to determine if I am the right person for you. Your privacy and confidentiality are assured. A comfortable safe environment. To be listened to – no matter how big or small the problem is. For your problem to be explored further and understood with empathy and compassion. To be responded to with respect and compassion. To not feel judged. To not feel alone, but as part of a team. Evidence based strategies tailored to your needs and monitoring.
