About us
Think Mental Health
Think Mental Health’s vision is to provide a safe place to receive support, while you connect, heal and grow. When founded back in 2011 by Canberra psychologists, Vanessa Hamilton and Jason McCrae, they were looking to find ways to share their knowledge and collaborate as a team on mental health. Today that team, based in Deakin, has expanded to over 20 staff and now includes a multidisciplinary team of registered psychologists, psychiatrists and a GP to meet the mental health needs of our local community.
Psychology
We have a team of experienced and committed registered psychologists including general, provisional and clinical psychologists. We specialise in person-centred, collaborative, evidence-based psychology services and work with you to clarify your goals and choose a therapy approach that feels right for you.
Psychiatry
Think Mental Health’s multidisciplinary team includes a team of psychiatrists who provide advanced medication management, comprehensive psychiatric assessment, diagnostic clarification, medication review and ongoing care.
General Practice
Our General Practitioner, Dr Louise Stone, has extended skills and interest in mental health care, especially with young people. Dr Stone can assist in all areas of general practice including scripts, referrals, vaccinations, pap smears, mental health care plans and other treatment plans, as well as psychotherapy as required.
