Who we are
Solstice Psychology is a sole-practitioner psychology practice in Melbourne led by Dr Carolina Barbosa, a registered Clinical Psychologist who works with adults across a range of life experiences and mental health concerns. Carolina brings a calm, grounded and compassionate presence to therapy, with a focus on creating a safe and collaborative space for meaningful change.
Solstice Psychology operates out of clinic rooms in Northcote, and offers both face-to-face and Telehealth appointments, providing flexible options to suit your lifestyle and preferences.
Why ‘Solstice’?
The name Solstice Psychology was chosen to reflect the themes of transition, balance, and renewal.
Just as a solstice marks a turning point in the natural cycle—whether the longest night or the return of light—it can symbolise moments of reflection and change in our own lives.
At Solstice Psychology, these symbolic shifts mirror the therapeutic journey: a space where difficult periods can begin to shift into times of insight, clarity, and growth.
Whether you're navigating mental health challenges, grief, trauma, identity shifts, or life transitions, therapy offers a structured and supportive space to process experiences, deepen insight and enhance psychological wellbeing.
