The person behind the practice
Meet Candice
Registered Psychologist with a special interest in adolescent and young adult mental health.
About Candice Mayer
Candice has worked across private practice and school settings, supporting children, adolescents, and adults. Her experience within both private and public school environments has given her a grounded understanding of the pressures young people face — academically, socially, and emotionally.
Her work is shaped by a genuine curiosity about people and what may help them move forward. Sessions are collaborative and tailored to the individual, drawing on evidence-based approaches that aim to fit the person rather than a fixed formula.
Candice holds a Bachelor of Psychological Science and a Graduate Diploma of Psychology Advanced from Monash University, and is registered with the Psychology Board of Australia. She has a special interest in adolescent and young adult mental health, and in supporting families navigating this stage of life.

Evidence-based
Grounded in current research and clinical best practice — always with a human touch.
Collaborative
Working together, not prescribing from above. Your goals help guide the work.
