Private treatment from leading psychologists for a range of mental health problems
If you’re seeking expert mental health support, Ross Hall Hospital offers private psychology services tailored to your needs. Our team of experienced clinical psychologists is supported by a multidisciplinary team across the hospital to provide compassionate care using evidence-based therapies. From your first consultation throughout your treatment journey, you can expect professionalism, confidentiality and personal attention in a welcoming environment.
Psychology services refer to professional assessments and treatments to support mental, emotional, and behavioural health. At Ross Hall, this includes diagnostic evaluations (e.g. for anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and relationship issues) as well as ongoing therapy sessions aimed at helping you better cope, heal, or adjust to changes in your life. Therapies offered may include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), and others such as mindfulness or solution-focused therapy.
Whether you're looking for individual therapy, couples counselling, family therapy, or psychological assessment, our consultants are experienced in working with adults, adolescents, and children. They also help with adjustment to physical health conditions, appearance-related distress, or trauma.
There are many reasons you might choose to see a psychologist. Some people seek support during a particularly stressful or challenging time in their life, while others want long-term help with ongoing mental health conditions. Common reasons include:
Accessing psychology services doesn’t always mean you have a mental health diagnosis. Many people benefit from short-term support to develop coping strategies, improve resilience, or explore personal growth.
The cost of psychology services varies depending on the type of therapy, length of sessions, and whether you need assessment or ongoing treatment. Ross Hall Hospital offers transparent pricing and you’ll always know the full cost of treatment before you book. Many therapists in the team accept private insurance, and self-funded rates are also available.
If needed, flexible payment options may be offered to help spread costs. Before you commit to treatment, you’ll be given a full breakdown of fees, so you know what to expect.
When you first contact Ross Hall’s psychology service, you’ll usually have an initial consultation or assessment. This is a chance to talk about what’s on your mind, your history, current challenges, and goals. Based on this, your psychologist will recommend a treatment plan, possibly identifying the best type of therapy for you.
Therapy sessions typically last about 50-60 minutes each, at a regular frequency (often weekly or biweekly). Over time, your psychologist will review progress, adjust treatment if needed, and help build coping strategies to manage symptoms long term.
Therapy is not physically painful, but it can bring up difficult emotions. It’s normal to feel vulnerable, emotional, or tired after sessions, especially when working through trauma, grief, or change. Our psychologists are trained to support you through these moments with sensitivity and care.
You will have a safe, confidential space to talk. Therapists ensure you have strategies and support between sessions too, so you don’t feel alone. Progress may be gradual. Your psychologist will help you set realistic expectations and pace the therapy to your comfort.
The length of therapy depends on what you’re seeking help for, how severe or persistent your difficulties are, and how many sessions you can commit to. Some issues may be addressed in a short course of therapy (6-12 sessions), while others (such as trauma, long-term anxiety, or complex life changes) may require ongoing support over many months.
Your psychologist will typically review progress at intervals, perhaps every few weeks or months, to check whether therapy objectives are being met and whether changes to the plan are needed.
Opting for private psychology means shorter waiting times, more flexible scheduling, and greater continuity: you will see the same psychologist throughout your care. At Ross Hall, you’ll experience a high level of privacy, one-to-one attention, and personalised therapy aimed at your individual situation.
In addition, private settings like Ross Hall can offer a more discreet and comfortable environment, often with more choice in therapy type and therapist.
