Helping you find your 'glow'
​The Glow Centre is a private clinical psychology practice in Kenmore, in Brisbane’s western suburbs. Originally established as Melissa Kent Psychology in 2014 in Melbourne, then relocating to Brisbane in 2016. The practice grew steadily and in 2019, we became The Glow Centre. We felt that the new name was a much better fit for the practice we had become - a team of warm, understanding clinicians committed to helping clients find their 'glow'. We have continued to maintain a reputation for excellence in clinical outcomes for our clients.
​​​
At The Glow Centre, we take immense pride in the long-term and stable staff that form the backbone of our practice, ensuring consistent and high-quality care.
​
​Each of our psychologists have different wait times, depending on their caseload and commitments. At times, some of our clinicians may not be taking new clients. Our intake team can assist with matching you with a psychologist to suit your needs. ​Please note that we offer appointments Monday to Thursday during the day.

Our commitment to excellence in therapy
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
-
​​Regular peer review and supervision.
