Psychological Reports for Court:

Pre-Sentencing (guilty pleas), Bail, Trials & Appeals

We provide comprehensive, independent psychological assessments and reports to support individuals involved in criminal proceedings, including pre-sentence reports, bail applications and appeals.

Navigating and enduring court is often a gruelling and stressful experience and can happen to anyone at any time. We’re here to support you with psychological counselling to help get you through it.

Our reports are prepared by qualified practitioners with experience in forensic contexts.

They are tailored to address the court’s needs, offering clear, evidence-based insights into cognitive functioning, psychosocial background, mental health, risk, intent, character and rehabilitation potential.

This provides the judge with a better understanding of mitigating and moderating contextual and background factors.

There are often significant differences in sentencing outcomes when the judge has a deeper understanding of your case (within the parameters of the Criminal Code legislation).

Trial reports may address key issues such as:

• Fitness to stand trial
• Mental state at the time of the alleged offence
• Impact of psychological conditions on behaviour
• Diagnostic clarification
• Risk assessment and management considerations

We work collaboratively with legal representatives to ensure timely, professional reporting that meets court standards and supports fair, informed outcomes.

Our reports are sophisticated instruments which are highly thorough (10-15 page / 2500-3500 words).

Whether you are seeking a report for sentencing, a bail application or an appeal, we are here to assist with respectful, non-judgmental and clinically sound support.

Adjustment to Life Changes

  • Life is full of transitions—some planned and welcomed, others unexpected and difficult.
  • Whether you're starting a new career, going through a relationship breakdown, becoming a parent, facing a health diagnosis, relocating, retiring, or experiencing any other major life shift, these changes can bring about a complex mix of emotions, including anxiety, grief, uncertainty or even loss of identity.
  • Even positive changes can be stressful, as they often involve leaving behind familiar roles, routines or support systems. It’s common to feel overwhelmed or “stuck” while trying to adapt to a new reality, especially when your usual coping strategies aren’t enough.
  • Therapy can provide a compassionate and non-judgemental space to explore your experience, understand your emotional responses and build new ways of coping.
  • Together, we can work through the psychological and emotional impact of the transition, helping you reconnect with your strengths, clarify your values and make meaningful adjustments.
  • With the right support, life changes can become opportunities for growth, self-discovery and renewal. You don’t have to go through it alone.
