A safe and inclusive space for all
Our mission is to model excellence in provision of psychological services to clients. We achieve this by continually reviewing our practices, values, feedbacks, and professional ethics and guidelines.
Colours can symbolise how we feel, view, and process the world. At Multicolour Psychology, we value, embrace and accept every aspect of emotions without judgement
The circle represents a holistic and person-centred approach that governs our clinical practice. Every client is treated with respect and is given a voice in our safe space as we embark on a collaborative journey towards achieving clients’ goal.
