Introducing FCG, a specialised forensic practice.

Our approach

Our team of 12 highly qualified psychologists with Masters and Doctoral level degrees provide top-tier psycholegal assessments and reports for the Court and specialised psychological treatment services to forensic clients.

Our goal is to identify, explain and minimize the impact of mental health factors on past, current and future legal proceedings, and develop targeted plans to reduce risks and potential further involvement with the legal system. We are committed to delivering the highest level of service possible, whether online or in person. We are confident that our professionals can meet your specific needs and provide you with the best possible outcome.

Specialising in Forensic Reports & Assessments

FCG provides professional assistance to prepare psycholegal reports that are admissible in Court. Our team is highly skilled and experienced in this field, and we pride ourselves on delivering the highest quality of service to our clients and have been retained by many top tier law firms in Australia.

In addition, we can provide access to expert professionals who offer individualized psychological treatment to support individuals throughout their legal process and beyond, with the utmost care and discretion. Our psychologists have specific expertise in supporting clients in criminal cases, family law matters, survivors of institutional abuse and personal injury, and those with immigration difficulties.

All appointments may be conducted remotely via secure videolink or in person at our Melbourne or Sydney office in private rooms.

 

In-person and remote options

Our preference is to conduct assessments and treatment remotely via secure videoconference, as it is most convenient and time efficient and clients report finding it more comfortable being in their own environment which assists the process. The videolink is easily accessible from any device with an internet connection and camera.

Prefer face-to-face? Our office is conveniently located in Melbourne CBD and we have availability for appointments in Sydney, Brisbane/Gold Coast/Sunshine Coast/Hervey Bay region, and in Tasmania.

*Please note that our physical office is only attended for scheduled face-to-face appointments and is not otherwise staffed.
