Young Street Consulting is a collaboration of specialist psychiatrists consulting from our beautiful city fringe rooms located at 49 King William Road, Unley, South Australia. Our psychiatrists’ areas of expertise and interest allow us to provide a comprehensive range of services to our patients.
We provide general adult psychiatry, child and adolescent psychiatry, old age psychiatry, perinatal psychiatric care and psychotherapy. Young Street Consulting provides consultation-liaison psychiatry services to patients admitted under our medical and surgical colleagues at Calvary, Ashford and Burnside War Memorial Hospitals in addition to private psychiatric admissions to The Adelaide Clinic.
Our psychiatrists share a philosophy of personalising mental health care based on the best evidence and informed practice. Each psychiatrist works independently but shares a commitment to creating a professional and containing therapeutic environment.
We view early intervention as key to overcoming developmental hurdles and building a positive self-concept and good mental health. We endorse inclusive practise, and therefore integral to our approach is the importance of family, community and support. Where beneficial, we include family members in therapy.
Our psychiatrists use a variety of treatments, including medication, counselling, psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and family and relationship therapy. We have developed a network of supportive professionals, including psychologists, mental health clinicians, mindfulness practitioners, dieticians and physiotherapists. We also utilise the comprehensive day therapy services at Kahlyn Day Centre.
A referral from a general practitioner or another specialist is an essential first step in seeking an appointment with one of our psychiatrists.
