Information for referrers
At ConnectEd, we believe it is important for all people to be part of community, and accessing healthcare is no different. Where possible and appropriate, we seek to work together with other professionals who are also supporting our clients. This is especially important for our work with young people, where school, home and other services provide so much helpful support.

Contact information:
Email: admin@connectedcc.com.au <- this is our preferred way to communicate as it means you can get the right person to give you the right reply (or call you back)
Address: 3/101 Verney Road West, Graceville QLD 4075
Ph: 0423 157 960 **Please note – this number is not routinely monitored – we prefer email and can schedule a call with the psychologist. The reason for this is our psychologists are typically in hour-long appointments throughout the day and are usually not able to take a call. We are very happy to organise a time for them to call you back and can set this up via email
Our team:
Our team of psychologists and counsellors have a special interest in working with children, adolescents, young adults and parents. Many of the team are former school psychologists and very experienced in the challenges young people and families are experiencing, as well as the value of collaborative work. You can find out more about the team here: https://www.connectedcc.com.au/clinic-team
All of our psychologists are comfortable working across a range of different presenting issues. If you would like to know who might be best placed for a particular referral, you can either send through a referral to the clinic and we can assign the most suitable psychologist, or contact us at admin@connectedcc.com.au
