Anxiety therapy Flemington

Anxiety therapy Flemington — help is just through Parkville.

If worry, panic or avoidance has been quietly shrinking your life, effective treatment is closer than you think — our Carlton clinic sits just the other side of Parkville from Flemington.

Our AHPRA-registered psychologists treat the full range of anxiety: generalised worry, social and performance anxiety, panic, phobias and health anxiety.

Sound familiar?

Anxiety wears many disguises.

Constant worry that won't switch off. A racing heart in meetings or social settings. Avoiding things you used to do easily. Physical tension, broken sleep, a mind that catastrophises on autopilot. Anxiety shows up as generalised worry, social and performance anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, and health anxiety — and it's the most common reason people come to see us.

Here's the genuinely good news: anxiety disorders are among the most treatable conditions in psychology. Most people notice real shifts within the first four to six sessions.

How we treat it

Treatment that targets the engine, not just the noise.

Anxiety runs on a loop — anxious thoughts drive avoidance, and avoidance teaches your brain the fear was justified. Effective treatment breaks that loop. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) — the first-line treatment for anxiety disorders — works on the thinking patterns and the avoidance together, while ACT builds a different relationship with anxious thoughts, and graded exposure work helps you reclaim what anxiety has taken, at your pace. For intrusive thoughts and compulsions, ERP is the first-line approach.

Your psychologist matches the approach to your specific presentation in the first session or two — and teaches you skills you keep long after therapy ends.

Local access

From Flemington, through the park and you're here.

Our clinic is in the Carlton Clocktower complex at 28B/255 Drummond Street — about ten minutes from Flemington by car via Flemington Road, or a direct bus through Parkville stopping within a short walk. Free one-hour parking on Drummond Street, plus a car park in our building.

And on the days anxiety makes the trip itself feel too big: telehealth sessions are available with the same psychologists.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions.

Do you treat anxiety in Flemington itself?

Our nearest clinic is in Carlton — just the other side of Parkville from Flemington and Kensington. Telehealth is also available, which many clients with anxiety find a comfortable way to start.

How many sessions will I need?

It varies with the type and severity of anxiety, but anxiety treatment is typically brief and structured — most people notice real shifts within the first four to six sessions, and your psychologist reviews progress with you openly.

Can I get Medicare rebates?

Yes — with a Mental Health Treatment Plan from your GP, Medicare provides rebates for up to 10 sessions per calendar year. Details on our Medicare page. No referral is needed to book, though.

Is it just talking, or will I learn actual techniques?

Both — and the techniques are the point. Anxiety treatment is skills-based: you'll learn concrete strategies for anxious thinking, physical symptoms, and avoidance, practised between sessions so the changes happen in your life, not just in the room.
