Meet José
Jose is a registered psychologist with over 15 years’ experience in diverse mental health settings across Australia and Central America.
He works with children, adolescents, and adults, offering holistic, evidence-based therapies tailored to individual needs.
Jose has a particular interest in:
- Adults: supporting people experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, or challenges with life transitions.
- Children & Adolescents: providing therapy to build emotional regulation, self-esteem, manage anxiety or behavioural issues, and address learning or educational concerns.
He is also skilled in conducting thorough psychological assessments for children aged 6–16 years.
Guided by values of empathy and respect, Jose creates a safe and supportive environment. He listens deeply, helps clients feel less isolated, and gently challenges unhelpful beliefs — supporting growth and wellbeing.
Outside of work, Jose is a young father who enjoys mountain biking, camping, four-wheel driving, and exploring the outdoors with his family.
