Really grateful for Dr Stops' approach. I started CBT for my anxiety and appreciated how practical the techniques were. The sessions in Hobart felt calm and respectful, and I could see small changes after the first few visits.
My son was having trouble with school confidence. Dr Stops did a child development assessment and gave us clear steps for parenting skills. The difference at home and on the school run has been noticeable.
I wanted to thank Dr Stops for his thoughtful listening and practical strategies for anxiety management. The sessions at St Helen's Private Hospital on Macquarie Street felt focused and supportive.
Highly recommending Dr Stops. As a parent, I learned how to approach challenging behaviours with your child using the parenting skills training. The tips were simple, doable, and effective in Hobart.
I went in for individual counselling and left with a better understanding of my worries. The cognitive behavioural therapy sessions were tailored and helped me feel more in control.
What a relief to find a psychologist who genuinely listens. The anxiety management techniques Dr Stops taught me are practical for everyday life here in Hobart.
We consulted for a parenting plan and some family dynamics. The guidance from Dr Stops was warm, professional, and rooted in real-world strategies that work in our home near Salamanca.
