Behavioural Neurotherapy Clinic

About  Behavioural Neurotherapy Clinic

Psychologists at the clinic provide Telehealth (ZOOM) and face to face assessment and therapy for ADHD, ASD, and mental health disorders. The domain name adhd.com.au reflects the clinic's primary area of clinical focus. BNC practitioners hold general or clinical psychology registration.

Established in 2000, the Behavioural Neurotherapy Clinic (BNC) is one of Melbourne's longest-established clinics for ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and related neurodevelopmental and mental health conditions. Based in Doncaster in Melbourne's eastern suburbs, BNC serves children, adolescents, and adults from across Melbourne and regional Victoria, and Australia via ZOOM or face to face.

Our focus: BNC's clinical interest in ADHD and Autism are conditions that require in depth knowledge, validated assessment tools, and an evidence-based, multimodal approach to assessment and therapy. 

Our Approach: Evidence-Based and Multimodal

BNC is committed to an evidence-based, multimodal model of care aligned with the Australian AADPA Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guideline for ADHD (2022), endorsed by the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC). This means combining the approaches that research shows are most effective for each individual:

  • Comprehensive assessment: All treatment begins with thorough, gold-standard assessment using validated tools and structured clinical interviews
  • Behavioural therapy: Evidence-based psychological interventions including but not limited to CBT, ACT, and parent training
  • Nutritional support: At BNC, a nutritionist works alongside psychologists, reflecting our commitment to whole-person care
  • School and workplace liaison: We work collaboratively with teachers, employers, and other health professionals
  • Medication coordination: Where medication is appropriate, BNC provides liaison letters and referrals to prescribing clinicians

Our Clinical Team

BNC's Psychologists hold AHPRA (Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency) registration as psychologists; all maintain current professional development and adhere to AHPRA and the Australian Psychological Society (APS) Code of Ethics.
