Why MINDCHECK HP

Health professionals face a distinct set of barriers when it comes to seeking psychological support. Concerns about confidentiality within a small professional community, fear of stigma among colleagues, and uncertainty around AHPRA’s mandatory reporting obligations can all make the decision to seek help feel more complicated than it should be.

We built MINDCHECK HP specifically to address this gap. Our psychologists understand the demands of clinical environments because all of our psychologists have worked within healthcare settings themselves. This isn’t just a clinical specialty for us; it shapes how we structure appointments, how we talk about confidentiality, and how we support health professionals navigating the unique pressures of their careers, from study and early registration through to senior practice.

We work with health professionals across all disciplines, including doctors, nurses, allied health professionals, first responders, pharmacists, dentists, optometrists, and veterinarians. We support the whole person, not just the clinician. Whether your concerns are connected to your professional role, your personal life, or both, our services are available to you within a confidential, evidence-based framework.

Ethical, responsive, and grounded in what the evidence actually supports.

Clinical Understanding, Not Just Clinical Knowledge

Our team have worked within healthcare settings. We understand what shift work does to sleep, relationships, and sense of self. We understand the psychological weight of a difficult patient outcome, and the particular complexity of asking for help in a profession that prizes self-sufficiency. That understanding is embedded in how we practice, so you can spend your sessions on what matters, not on explaining your world.

Confidential by Design

We understand why confidentiality feels different when you work in healthcare. Our practice is built around the specific concerns of health professionals have, including mandatory reporting, professional visibility, and the dynamics of small clinical communities. These aren’t afterthoughts here. They shape everything about how we work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral to see a MINDCHECK HP psychologist?

A referral isn’t required to book privately. If you’d like to access a Medicare rebate, you’ll need a referral and a Mental Health Treatment Plan from your GP or psychiatrist.

We support health professionals with a wide range of concerns, both those connected to clinical work and those that are entirely personal. Common reasons health professionals come to us include burnout and compassion fatigue, performance anxiety, imposter syndrome, ADHD and autism, moral distress and moral injury, exam and fellowship stress, sleep difficulties related to shift work, workplace conflict, and the cumulative psychological weight of clinical careers. We also support health professionals and their families with concerns that have nothing to do with their professional role.

Yes, and accessing psychological support will not automatically place your registration at risk. Many health professionals avoid seeking help because of this concern, but the threshold for mandatory reporting is very high and is not triggered simply by attending therapy or disclosing personal or professional difficulties. Confidentiality is central to how we operate, and what you discuss in session stays between you and your psychologist, with very limited exceptions required by law. We understand the specific concerns health professionals carry  about registration, about professional visibility, and about being known within a small clinical community.

Yes, we provide telehealth appointments nationally, alongside in-person appointments at our Brisbane and Melbourne locations.

Your first appointment is a chance for your psychologist to get to know you, who you are, what has brought you to MINDCHECK HP, and what you are hoping to achieve from therapy. You may notice that your psychologist asks more questions in this initial session than in those that follow. This is intentional. Understanding your background, your current circumstances, and your goals allows your psychologist to build a clear picture of your needs before discussing the approach to treatment that is most likely to work for you.

Your psychologist will also explain how sessions at MINDCHECK HP work, including how we use Feedback-Informed Treatment to monitor your progress, and will welcome any questions you have about confidentiality, session structure, or the therapeutic approach. There is no expectation that you will have everything figured out before you arrive. The first session is the beginning of that process.
