NEW Specialist Directory for Qualified Child Psychologists & Therapists in Australia
Parents in Australia are finding it increasingly difficult for their children to see a psychologist or therapist. Families are facing the real challenge of professional shortage and lengthy waitlists, especially in regional or remote areas. With mental health issues among children continuing to rise, and subsidised public health sessions limited, families are doing the research themselves, looking for a Specialist Directory of Qualified Child Psychologists and Therapists in Australia.
Higher Swing aims to support families inclusive of those with significant mental health issues, to children needing help to navigate emotions, behaviour, or life challenges.

Who Can Be Listed in the Directory?
We recognise that there are important differences in ‘child psychologists’ and ‘child counsellor’ such as education, training, and the therapeutic support and techniques used.
For example, if a child requires diagnosis and treatment of a mental health disorder a psychologist would be the appropriate choice. If a child was needing help to navigate emotions, family issues, school stress, or a big life change, then a counsellor might be a more suitable option.
All listed professionals must be registered with the Psychology Board of Australia and meet the standards set by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). All listed Counselors must be registered members of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) or Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA).
