Broadbeach Psychologist
If you’re in Broadbeach and looking for psychological support, you don’t have to go far. Zen Society Integrated Psychology is based in Clear Island Waters, about 10 minutes from Broadbeach. We work with children, teenagers, adults, and families.
We’re a small, private clinic – not a high-volume referral centre. You’ll see the same psychologist, build a proper working relationship, and actually get somewhere.
Who we work with
Kids and teenagers
Whether it’s school struggles, big emotions, anxiety, or a diagnosis you’re trying to make sense of — we work with young people from age three up. We also work closely with parents, because what helps at home matters just as much as what happens in the room.
Adults
Life gets heavy. Work pressure, relationship stress, burnout, grief, trauma — or just that persistent feeling that something’s off and you can’t quite name it. We work with adults at all life stages, and we won’t make you feel like a number.
Families navigating ADHD or ASD
If your child has recently been diagnosed with ADHD or ASD, or you’re looking for an assessment, the process can feel overwhelming. We offer comprehensive assessments and ongoing support, and we’re used to working with families who’ve been searching for answers for a long time.
NDIS participants

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you see clients from Broadbeach?
Yes we regularly see clients travelling from Broadbeach. Clear Island Waters is about 10 minutes from Broadbeach by car, and we have free onsite parking when you arrive. No multi-storey, no stress.
Do I need a GP referral?
No, you don’t need a referral to book with us. You can reach out directly at any time. That said, if you’d like to claim Medicare rebates on your sessions, you’ll need a Mental Health Care Plan from your GP. It’s worth asking your GP about this before your first appointment — they can let you know if you’re eligible.
What does it cost to see a psychologist?
We’re a private practice, so fees apply. You can find our current fee schedule on our fees and FAQs page. Medicare rebates are available for eligible clients with a Mental Health Care Plan, which can significantly offset the cost. We also see NDIS participants (self and plan-managed) and accept WorkCover referrals.
How do I make an appointment?
You can book online through our website or call us directly on (07) 5651 6527. If you’re unsure whether psychology is right for your situation, or you’d like to ask a question before booking, feel free to email us at admin@zensociety.com.au — we’re happy to help.
What if I've tried therapy before and it didn't work?
It’s more common than you’d think. Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all, and a big part of whether it works comes down to fit – the right psychologist, the right approach, the right timing. If something hasn’t clicked before, it’s worth having a conversation about why, and whether a different approach might be more useful. We won’t assume the last way is the only way.
