Welcome to The Psych Edit, a psychology practice that sees the person behind the diagnosis and offers a holistic evidenced based approach to psychological issues. My name is Dr Elizabeth Blackwood and after 15 years in clinical practice, I wanted to offer a way of delivering psychological services that not only integrates gold standard psychological treatment for mental illness but also an understanding of all the factors that may be contributing to why you are feeling the way you do. This is why at The Psych Edit, my fellow practitioners and I will examine all aspects of your life and wellbeing. This could encompass factors you might not consciously recognise, stemming from your early experiences, interpersonal connections, how you form emotional bonds, your professional environment, dietary choices, sleep patterns, daily rituals, and overall way of life.



We will then tailor a comprehensive approach to treating your mental health issues in the context of all you are, not just the head space you are in. We treat a range of mental health disorders including anxiety, depression, relational issues and trauma, providing treatment to adults, teenagers, families, and couples.



Taking care of your mental well-being also involves addressing the physiological aspect of your brain. To achieve this, we employ advanced, research-supported methods like Neurofeedback and Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation. These techniques aim to balance your brainwave activity, lessening anxiety and enhancing serotonin production. We aimed to create a portable system for clients to use at home between sessions. Through thorough research, we procured handheld Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation Systems which are available to purchase. These devices send gentle electrical pulses to the brain, regulating beta waves, reducing cortisol (stress hormone), and boosting serotonin (happiness hormone). In less than a week, clients noticed reduced reactivity to distressing thoughts and a greater sense of alignment and lightness.
