About Us

At Ascending Psychology, we're more than just a psychology practice — we're a professional, people-first team that values precision, compassion, and a touch of good humour in our day-to-day. We offer individual therapy, group therapy, and psychological assessments, drawing on a wide range of evidence-based practices across the lifespan.

We pride ourselves on a high-quality client experience, streamlined operations, and a warm, welcoming environment. If you love organisation, enjoy connecting with people, and thrive in a role where flexibility and poise are essential, we'd love to hear from you.
