Clinics

Get hands-on experience in our teaching clinics.

At the School of Psychology, we’re proud to partner with teaching clinics to provide vital community services and train the next generation of psychologists and mental health workers.

Our teaching clinics and services enable students to develop professional competence under the guidance of highly experienced supervisors and academics—all of whom are registered psychologists.

In addition, they provide an essential service to the South Australian community, providing timely access to high-quality psychological services for eligible patients.

Master’s students develop real-world psychology skills at our affiliated Adelaide teaching clinics and practices: the Centre for the Treatment of Anxiety and Depression; and Ngartunna Wiltanendi.
