The Glow Centre is a private clinical psychology practice in Kenmore, in Brisbane’s western suburbs. We were originally established in 2013 in Melbourne, Victoria. Since relocating to Brisbane in 2016, we have grown steadily, establishing a reputation for excellence in clinical outcomes for our clients.
Our team of clinical psychologists have a minimum of 8 years of training in the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of mental health disorders.
Sometimes, just talking is enough. At other times, if you are struggling with a mental health disorder, if your problems keep coming back, if your issues are complex or chronic, and if you haven't seen benefit from standard treatment from another mental health professional, you probably need help to understand your problems, a tailored plan of scientifically-based interventions, and an active approach to treatment.
If you are ready to take that next step, we can help.

Commitment to excellence in outcomes
-
At The Glow Centre, we’re committed to creating and maintaining the optimal conditions for our clients to get the best possible outcomes during therapy. We have a number of processes involved in striving for excellence in clinical outcomes, including:
-
Clarifying each client’s goals for therapy and regularly reviewing them to ensure we are focusing on what the client wants to
-
Developing a shared understanding of the factors contributing to each client’s current problems and how they developed over time. We call this a “shared formulation”
-
Helping each client choose a therapy approach that is backed by scientific research, and feels right for the client
-
Supporting clients to take an active role in their treatment within and between sessions
-
Tracking clients’ progress over time to make sure they are improving
-
Creating a culture of feedback – encouraging clients to share if something is not working for them, if they would like us to do something differently, or if they are not improving as expected
-
Responding to feedback by discussing concerns and options for moving forward
-
Collaborating regularly with important others involved in each client’s life, such as partners, families, carers, other supports, and other professionals
