Q Psychology

What Q Psychology does

Q Psychology is an Australian psychology clinic operating under the legal entity Q Psychology PTY LTD, providing evidence-based therapy and psychological assessments to individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan. The clinic serves general mental health concerns (anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation, relationship challenges) alongside niche segments including the LGBTQIA+ community and neurodivergent individuals, with an explicit LGBTQIA+ and neuroaffirming practice framework. Its core service lines are General Psychology Services, Gender Services, Autism & ADHD Assessments (with reduced-cost options), Cognitive & Academic Assessments, Group Therapy Programs, and active Research Programs focused on LGBTQIAP+ mental health and neurodiversity. The clinical team includes practitioners with lived experience in the communities served.

The business is delivered through a hybrid physical and Telehealth model. Four clinic locations operate in Victoria: Carlton and St Kilda in metropolitan Melbourne, Geelong, and Colac in regional Victoria, with appointments available Monday to Saturday including evenings. A Telehealth channel provides national reach across Australia, and the Colac site currently is not accepting new referrals due to demand. The company also runs content marketing through an educational blog covering mental health topics to support client acquisition.

Q Psychology is a privately held, founder-led practice with no disclosed external investment, parent company, or funding rounds. Revenue is generated on a fee-for-service professional services model with potential Medicare rebates available to eligible Australian clients holding a Mental Health Care Plan from their GP. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company is registered and domiciled in Victoria, Australia, with David H. Capstick (né Demmer) serving as Director and Clinical Psychologist.

Emerging players

• MindSpot Clinic: Australian free digital mental health service funded by the federal government, providing therapist-guided online assessment and treatment for anxiety and depression. Comparable as an Australia-based, telehealth-delivered psychological care provider, but operates as a public-funded clinic rather than a private fee-for-service practice.
• Headspace Australia: National Australian youth mental health foundation operating physical centers and digital services for people aged 12–25. Comparable as an Australia-based, multi-modal mental health provider with physical and telehealth channels, though focused on youth and predominantly government-funded.
• This Way Up: Australian digital mental health program provider (UNSW-affiliated) offering clinician-supported online therapy courses. Comparable to Q Psychology as an Australia-based, evidence-based mental health provider blending digital delivery with clinician involvement, though it is program-based rather than 1:1 psychology.

Broad incumbents

• Brightside Health: US telehealth mental health provider combining therapy and psychiatry for anxiety and depression, with insurance and direct-pay options. Comparable in telehealth-delivered psychological care, though US-focused and lacking Q Psychology's specialty niche positioning.
• Talkspace: US-listed online therapy platform delivering psychology and psychiatry services via telehealth to consumers and through B2B partnerships. Comparable in telehealth-delivered mental health care and broad service mix, but serves a different geography and operates at significantly larger scale than Q Psychology.
• Lyra Health: Mental health benefits platform providing therapy and coaching through employer-sponsored plans. Comparable in delivering therapy services via telehealth with a multi-modal offering, but Lyra is US-focused, employer-funded, and far larger than Q Psychology's direct-to-consumer model.
• Spring Health: Global mental health benefits platform providing therapy, coaching, and psychiatry through employers and health plans. Comparable as a multi-modal mental health provider leveraging telehealth, but operates at much larger scale with a B2B-led model rather than Q Psychology's D2C clinic roots.
• BetterHelp: Global, large-scale online therapy platform offering 1:1 counseling via telehealth across many jurisdictions. Comparable to Q Psychology as a fee-for-service telehealth psychology provider, but operates at vastly larger scale, is US-rooted, and lacks Q Psychology's specialty LGBTQIA+/neuroaffirming positioning.
