The Kidd Clinic
North Perth | Fremantle | Melbourne
We’re a neurodivergent-led private psychology and allied health clinic providing compassionate, collaborative, and personalised mental health care and neuroaffirming assessments for children, adolescents, and adults.
Collaborative
We work with you to set therapy goals and provide guidance and strategies, but nothing is ever forced. Therapeutic support works best when it feels safe and right for you.
Customised
Whether it’s therapy, counselling or assessment, we adjust our approach to fit your unique needs.
Connection
Building a genuine, trusting relationship is at the heart of our work. Feeling heard, understood, and supported is the foundation for meaningful progress.
Celebrate Diversity
We honour all backgrounds, identities, bodies, and neurotypes, including gender-diverse, trans, culturally diverse, and trauma-affected individuals. Inclusion isn’t a checkbox for us, it’s the core of who we are and what we do.
Compassionate
Our team brings both professional expertise, neuroaffirming support, and lived experience, so you feel seen, understood, and respected.
Communication
We value openness and clarity. You’ll always know what to expect, and we encourage questions, feedback, and shared decision-making every step of the way.
