Welcome to Sova Psychology

Sova Psychology is a new private practice in Mackay, offering support for adults and adolescents via face-to-face or telehealth appointments. To make therapy more accessible for busy people, sessions are regularly available on Saturdays.

At Sova Psychology, therapy is seen not only as a service for those with a diagnosis, but as a way for anyone to gain insight, shift patterns, and uncover the deeper story beneath their emotions.

Evidence-Based & Integrative Approaches

At Sova Psychology, sessions focus on:

  • Uncovering underlying emotional patterns that shape your experiences.

  • Balancing practical coping tools with deeper emotional work to support both resilience and insight.

  • Creating a safe, collaborative, and non-judgemental space for growth.

Therapy draws on a range of evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT, DBT, Schema Therapy, and parts work models (IFS-informed).
