Centre for Clinical Psychology - Free Online Seminar Series
Understanding Police Culture: Implications for Therapy
Tim Peck is the Co-Director of the Centre of Excellence in Emergency Worker Mental Health at Phoenix Australia. A respected leader with over 20 years of experience in the emergency services sector, Peck is driving transformative change to improve mental health support for first responders.
After a distinguished career with Victoria Police spanning two decades and rising to Detective Senior Sergeant, he transitioned into pioneering roles at the forefront of mental health advocacy. He served as the inaugural National Engagement Manager for Beyond Blue's Police and Emergency Services program, and as Manager of Wellbeing Services at The Police Association Victoria. In his current position at Phoenix Australia, Tim leverages his unique understanding of clinical practice, research principles, and lived experience insights to develop innovative, practical solutions. He is instrumental in establishing effective mental health care models tailored specifically for the emergency services environment.
The following online seminar will aim to strengthen clinicians' understanding of how lived experience can deepen insight into wellbeing in policing. It will also provide clinicians with a deeper understanding of the cultural impacts of policing in a clinical setting, along with allowing clinicians to reflect on the influence of cultural and everyday behaviours on wellbeing. Finally, the presentation will aim to build confidence to engage in supportive and stigma-reducing conversations, whilst strengthening self-awareness and agency in responding to personal and workplace challenges.
Our next ‘Cognitive Processing Therapy’ workshop will be held in Melbourne on the 5th and 6th of March, 2026
Our two day Post Traumatic Stress Disorder training workshop aims to train clinicians to deliver Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). CPT is an evidence-based treatment for individuals who have experienced trauma (PTSD and CPTSD). The training is practice-oriented and includes video clips of expert demonstrations. You will also be provided with a comprehensive manual and client handouts for clinical use.

It’s Been Years Since the Trauma, Can I Still Recover from Posttraumatic Stress Disorder?
If you’ve been living with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for a long time, it’s completely natural to wonder: Is it too late to recover? When symptoms have lingered for years or even decades trauma can start to feel like a permanent part of who you are.

After working for many years in public mental health systems, the principal psychologists at the Centre for Clinical Psychology decided to establish a service with a focus upon evidence-based therapy. They wanted to develop a service which provides comprehensive assessment and skillful treatment with a focus upon goal setting and measurable outcomes. They also wanted to create a practice where clients can collaborate openly, and feel respected, listened to and understood. At the heart of good therapy is a strong working relationship between client and therapist.
At the Centre for Clinical Psychology we aim to go beyond the management of surface concerns. We seek to provide therapy to address core issues. For example, it is quite common for relationship problems to overlap with concerns such as anxiety, depression and PTSD. Many of our clients who have had traumatic experiences, report improvements in their relationships when their trauma symptoms have been adequately treated. Similarly, when individuals present seeking help for postnatal depression, they tend to find that once the depression is adequately treated, other symptoms such as anxiety, irritability and the quality of their relationships also tend to improve.
At the Centre for Clinical Psychology we focus upon the delivery of high quality practice based on the translation of research. Our psychologists are highly trained and experienced clinicians who are involved in regular supervision and ongoing professional development.
We seek to first gain an in-depth understanding of your difficulties, and work with you to create change and new perspectives.
We know that change is possible.
People can recover from trauma. New meanings and growth can be forged by working through psychological difficulties. Relationships and wellbeing can be improved.
