About the Mind Room:
The Mind Room (TMR) is a mental health, wellbeing and performance psychology practice based in Australia. Our vision is to create a community where clients and practitioners feel welcome, supported, and inspired.
We support people to know, love and grow their minds, so they can live a healthy, happy and meaningful life. We provide quality, evidence-based psychological services to improve individual, group and organisational health, wellbeing and performance.
We provide individual therapy, wellbeing and performance coaching, workshops and events with a focus on ACT, CBT, performance psychology, mindfulness and wellbeing science. Our key work streams focus on alleviating mental illness, building wellbeing, and enhancing performance (in life, sport and business). We do this via:
- Clinical, counselling and coaching psychology services in-person and via Coviu (video-phone).
- Psycho-education in the form of group classes and events, on topics related to psychological health, wellbeing and performance.
- Consultancy services to other organisations, such as presentations, classes, workshops, strategy and advice on matters related to mental health, wellbeing and human performance.
At The Mind Room we value integrity, connection, curiosity, action and joy.
