CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST

DR JASON COATES

Dr Jason Coates is a Clinical Psychologist who has been supporting individuals and couples with their mental health for over 10 years. As a Clinical Psychologist, Jason is trained in the assessment and treatment of a broad range of psychological concerns and takes a collaborative, evidence-based approach to therapy.
Jason recognises that every person’s experiences are unique and strives to develop a clear understanding of each client’s internal world within the context of their history, circumstances, and relationships. From this foundation, he works collaboratively with clients and couples to develop personalised treatment plans focused on meaningful goals and lasting change.
As engaging in therapy can be a daunting prospect, Jason aims to create a warm, empathic, and non-judgemental environment where clients feel understood and supported. He works with clients to establish shared goals for therapy and regularly reviews progress to ensure treatment remains aligned with their needs.
Jason commonly works with concerns including anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, trauma and post-traumatic stress, addictive behaviours, relationship difficulties, and challenges related to self-esteem and emotional wellbeing. His primary therapeutic approaches include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), while also drawing upon Emotion-Focused Therapy, Dialectical-Behaviour Therapy, Schema Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing when appropriate.
In addition to his private practice, Jason works as a Senior Clinical Psychologist in the public health system, supporting people experiencing substance use and related mental health concerns. He completed his PhD and Master of Clinical Psychology at The University of Queensland, with his doctoral research focused on substance use and addiction.
Jason is also a Board Approved Supervisor with the Psychology Board of Australia and provides supervision to provisional psychologists, clinical psychology registrars, and other mental health professionals.
