Our story
Welcome to Eucalyptus Psychology.
Eucalyptus Psychology was founded by our director and principal clinical psychologist, Dr Matthew Blake, BA (Hons), MPsych (Clin), PhD (UniMelb), MAPS (FCCLP), MACPA. Under the original name, Blake Psychology, our practice has been serving Olinda and surrounding areas for over 5 years.
At Eucalyptus Psychology, we are committed to providing mental health support that we all need from time to time, with the warmth and respect that we all deserve.
We believe in a holistic, flexible and pragmatic approach to therapy, focusing on biological, psychological, and social factors known to affect mental health. As such, our psychologist team personalises interventions to the individual using a variety of therapy approaches, and believes in collaboration and building intention to change.
