About me

Important update:

I am committed to truly turning up for my clients. To ensure I can provide ample availability to my existing clients, I regret to inform that I am not able to accept new clients for the rest of 2024. However, I have great confidence in the care my psychologist peers in Adelaide can offer. Should you be seeking a psychologist in 2025, it would be my pleasure to connect with you then.

I feel privileged that my clients invite me on their journey of growth, healing and discovery. I strive to honour their trust with warmth, authenticity, openness and compassion.

Hey, I’m Nick.

My full name is Nicholas Croucher, but you can call me Nick. I’m a clinical psychologist and have been treating clients in a private practice setting since 2014 where I’ve helped people struggling with a wide range of psychological difficulties. Prior to that I worked in a community setting with individuals suffering from severe mental health difficulties such as schizophrenia, chronic bi-polar and personality disorders. These experiences have given me an appreciation of the challenges faced daily by individuals living with psychological difficulties, as well as those faced by their friends and family. Time and again my work has taught me that people are incredibly resilient. Also complicated. Super complicated. I’m passionate about helping people to understand themselves better, figure out their feelings and help them get unstuck so they can change the patterns of their lives that are no longer serving them.

As a Clinical Psychologist registered with the Psychology Board of Australia, I’ve studied and utilise evidenced based approaches to help people overcome negative psychological symptoms, improve their relationships and achieve more meaningful and fulfilling lives. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Schema Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) and mindfulness.
