National Telehealth Service
Psychology Support, Wherever You Are
Lightner Centre provides a national psychology telehealth service, giving clients across Australia access to our extensive team of Clinical Psychologists, General Psychologists, and Clinical Psychology Registrars.
Telehealth is an established part of our practice, with several Lightner Centre psychologists dedicated predominantly or entirely to telehealth services. Clients accessing telehealth are not limited to a separate or smaller team and can access clinicians from across Lightner Centre, providing greater choice based on individual needs, presenting concerns, clinician experience, and availability.
Our psychologists are based across different parts of Australia, including clinicians living and working in regional and rural communities. This broad geographical reach allows us to provide psychological care that is accessible, flexible, and responsive to the different circumstances of clients throughout Australia.
Greater Access, More Choice
Where you live or the demands of everyday life should not unnecessarily restrict the psychological care available to you.
Telehealth provides access to our experienced team without the need to live within travelling distance of a Lightner Centre clinic. This can be particularly valuable for people living in regional, rural, and remote areas, where access to psychologists may be limited, waiting periods may be longer, and finding a clinician with experience relevant to your needs can be difficult.
Our team includes psychologists who understand the unique realities of rural and remote living, including geographical isolation, limited local services, travel requirements, and the privacy considerations that can arise when seeking psychological support within smaller communities.
Telehealth can also benefit people who may have difficulty attending face-to-face appointments because of work or study commitments, caring responsibilities, disability, health or mobility concerns, transport difficulties, travel, or other personal circumstances. It can also support continuity of care, allowing clients to remain connected with their psychologist when circumstances or location change.
Flexible Appointments & Online Booking
We recognise that psychological care needs to fit around people's lives. Our national telehealth service offers extended appointment hours, with psychologists working across different schedules and locations to provide greater flexibility beyond traditional business hours.
Our online booking system is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, allowing you to view available telehealth appointments and book at a time that is convenient for you.
With an extensive team and clinicians dedicated to telehealth services, clients have access to a broader range of appointment times and can select an available psychologist and appointment without needing to contact the practice during business hours.
Secure, Confidential & Individualised Care
Telehealth changes where you meet your psychologist, not the standard of psychological care you receive.
Appointments are provided through a secure platform designed to support confidential psychological consultations, with the same professional, ethical, and privacy standards that apply to psychological care provided within our clinics.
Whether you attend Lightner Centre in person or connect with one of our psychologists from elsewhere in Australia, our approach remains the same - evidence-based, individually tailored psychological care informed by your presenting concerns, circumstances, and treatment goals.
For many people, attending appointments from the privacy and familiarity of their own environment can make accessing regular psychological care easier. Your psychologist will work with you to ensure telehealth is appropriate for your needs and discuss any practical considerations necessary to support safe and effective treatment.
Lightner Centre, Wherever You Are
Our national telehealth service brings together the experience, diversity, and clinical expertise of the Lightner Centre team and makes it accessible beyond the walls of our Brisbane clinics.
Whether you live in a metropolitan area, regional community, or remote part of Australia, or simply need a more flexible way to access psychological care, Lightner Centre telehealth provides a secure and convenient way to connect with the right psychologist for you.
