A Practice Built on Connection
Our team of psychologists is committed to helping individuals, couples and families access quality psychological care that is compassionate, evidence-based and centred around their individual needs. Whether you are seeking support for yourself, your child, your relationship or your family — we are here to help you move forward with confidence.
Michelle Barratt Psychology (MBP) provides in-person therapy across Brisbane, and flexible online therapy options for children, adolescents, adults, and couples Australia-wide, ensuring your healing journey remains consistent and accessible.
Meaningful Brisbane Psychology
Meaningful Brisbane Psychology (MBP) was founded on the belief that effective therapy is built on genuine human connection, clinical excellence, and an understanding that every person’s experiences are unique.
We recognise that seeking support can be a significant step. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, life transitions, parenting challenges, or more complex mental health concerns, our practitioners provide a safe and supportive environment to explore what is happening and work towards meaningful outcomes.
Our focus is not simply on symptom management, but on helping individuals develop greater understanding, resilience, emotional well-being, and confidence in their daily lives.
Our Approach
Our practitioners draw on evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to the needs, goals and circumstances of each individual.
We understand that no two people are the same, which is why therapy is always
personalised, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Administration Support for Independent Practitioners
MBP Administration Services
MBP provides administrative, operational, and practice support services to psychologists, clinical psychologists, other mental health practitioners, and counsellors.
Practitioners operate independently and remain responsible for their own clinical services while benefiting from professional administrative support, bookings, marketing campaigns, patient allocation and systems offered by MBP.
MBP represents not just Michelle Barratt's independent practice as an independent contractor, but a dynamic shift harnessing the synergy between allied health professionals who need meaningful and clinically literate administrative support.
What sets MBP apart is not just administrative skill — it’s clinical literacy.
“My team and I understand the emotional, ethical, and practical nuances of psychological work, and we bring that understanding into every client interaction and every administrative process.”
Michelle Barratt, Founder and Clinical Psychologist
