Psychology @ Qimax  

Psychology is the science of the mind and behaviour and therfore provides a very important element to the QiMax philosphy to nuture a healthy mind, body and spirit for optimal health and quality of life. The reasons people meet with a clinical psychologist are broad and varied, however they all have a common link and that is the desire to improve their quality of life. We often spend time, effort and money looking after our physical wellbeing but overlook our psychological wellbeing. It is only when we are in the middle of feeling stressed or out of control that we realise that we are not happy.

The streotype that only the mentally ill recieve psychology treatment is largely outdated, in fact anyone at all can see a clinical psychologist. Often people will see a clinical psychologist when they are prompted by a friend, work collegue, doctor or family member who feel concern due to behavioural or emotional changes in a loved one or if they feel that they are personally not coping and feeling overwhelmed.

Some areas where a clinical psychologist may be able to help you include: reducing anxierty, eliminating panic attackes and manging stress, imporving and stabilising mood quality, improving relationships with partners, family or co-workers and building a stable sense of identity, self esteem and self acceptance.

Unlike many counsellors our clinical psychologists have completed a comprehensive university degree and specialist post graduate training in the assesment, treatment and diagnosis of emotional and psychological disorders.
