Join Our Therapists in Melbourne

Cova Psychology was established to create a supportive environment for Melbourne psychologists who are highly skilled and passionate about delivering quality psychological therapy. Our aim is to provide the guidance and resources you need to focus on what matters most—your clients and your well-being.

At Cova Psychology, we understand that therapists perform their best work when they feel comfortable and supported. This not only enhances their professional satisfaction but also improves outcomes for their clients.

We welcome professionals from diverse disciplines, including psychologists, clinical psychologists, EMDR therapists, mental health-accredited social workers, and occupational therapists. Whether you prefer working face-to-face in our Melbourne CBD clinic or offering telehealth services from home, we’d love to hear from you.

Culture of the Team

Being able to working alongside others is very important for many psychologists in private practice. At Cova Psychology we have cultivated a friendly and collegial workspace, where we aim to share and learn from each other’s collective wisdom as well as support each other through the ebbs and flows of the work we all do.

Cova has attracted therapists who share an understanding of the impact of psychological trauma and how to work sensitively with that. In addition, the Cova therapists have a wide range of other interests and specialisations, and these have continued to broaden as the team has grown.
