- Belinda Paterson, Clinical Psychologist

IN.BALANCE is a Clinical Psychology practice in Kew, dedicated to supporting adolescents and adults across the spectrum of wellbeing from emerging mental health concerns to complex mental illness.

Whilst Belinda supports individuals with a range of presenting concerns, she has a particular interest and expertise in Perinatal and Infant Mental Health, Adolescence/Young Adulthood and parenting across the lifespan. They are life stages which offer significant biological, psychological and social change. These changes render individuals more vulnerable to mental health concerns. They also provide the opportunity for change, recovery and growth.
