Psychologists in Carlton.
On the ground floor of the Carlton Clocktower complex at 255 Drummond Street, our Carlton clinic has been home to our Melbourne psychologists for over a decade — quiet, comfortable rooms in the heart of the inner north.
Our clinical and registered psychologists see adults here for anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD and more, with forensic assessments also available. We're a short distance from the city and the northern suburbs, and easy to reach by public transport or car.
A calm place to do real work.
