If you’ve spent any time driving through Clyde North recently, you’ve seen the incredible growth. New homes, new parks, and a real sense of community are springing up everywhere. At Inspire Health and Medical, we’ve been watching this growth with a lot of excitement: and a realization. As more families and individuals move into our beautiful corner of Melbourne, the need for high-quality, accessible mental health services in Clyde North has never been greater.
We are so incredibly proud to announce that we’ve officially brought our unique brand of caring, holistic support to the neighborhood. Whether you’re a parent navigating the challenges of a new developmental diagnosis, an individual looking for a supportive space to manage stress, or someone seeking a neurodiverse-affirming psychologist, we are here for you.
A Different Approach to Mental Health Services in Clyde North
When people think of "going to the psychologist," they often imagine a cold, clinical office and a one-size-fits-all approach. At Inspire Health and Medical, we do things a bit differently. We believe that mental health doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Your mind is connected to your body, your relationships, your environment, and your history.
That’s why our approach is holistic.
What does that mean for you? It means that when you walk through our doors or connect with us via telehealth, we aren’t just looking at a list of symptoms. We are looking at you as a whole person. We consider how your physical health, your nutrition, and your social supports all play a role in your wellbeing. This integrated model is why we offer a range of services from psychology and psychiatry to dietitian packages and even general practitioner support.
Meet the Experts: Maanya, Nervelle, and Leo
A clinic is only as good as the people inside it, and we couldn’t be happier with the team we’ve assembled for the Clyde North community. We’ve brought together clinicians who aren’t just highly skilled, but who also lead with their hearts.
Maanya Ivar
Maanya Ivar is a dedicated clinician who brings a wealth of empathy and expertise to her practice. She understands that the first step in any therapeutic journey is feeling safe and heard. Maanya works across a variety of mental health challenges, helping clients navigate everything from daily stressors to more complex emotional hurdles. Her presence in Clyde North is a huge win for anyone seeking a compassionate, professional psychologist.
Nervelle Ngoh
If you are looking for a general psychologist with a focus on autism, Nervelle is an incredible asset to our team. She is deeply committed to neurodiverse-affirming care. Nervelle doesn't see autism or ADHD as something to be "fixed," but as a unique way of experiencing the world. She works closely with individuals and families to build on their strengths and find strategies that actually work for their specific lives.
Viacheslav (Leo) Mormylev
Leo is another vital part of our Clyde North team. Leo brings a practical, grounded, and supportive perspective to therapy. He is known for his ability to connect with clients from all walks of life, making the process of therapy feel less intimidating and more like a collaborative partnership. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, or life transitions, Leo is here to help you find your footing.
Specialized Support: ADHD and Autism Assessments
One of the biggest gaps we noticed in mental health services in Clyde North was the long wait times for diagnostic assessments. We know how stressful it can be for a parent to suspect their child is neurodivergent: or for an adult to realize they’ve been living with undiagnosed ADHD: and then be told they have to wait 12 months for an answer.
We are working hard to change that. Inspire Health and Medical specializes in comprehensive assessments for:
- Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
- Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
- Cognitive and Educational Assessments
Our assessments are thorough, evidence-based, and, most importantly, neurodiverse-affirming. We provide you with more than just a diagnosis; we provide a roadmap for support and a deeper understanding of how your brain works.
Why Holistic Care Matters for Families
Clyde North is home to so many young families. We understand that parenting is one of the toughest jobs in the world, and it becomes even more complex when a child is struggling. Our holistic model is designed to support the whole family unit.
When a child comes to see us for an early autism or ADHD assessment, we don’t just work with the child in isolation. We support the parents, offer guidance on navigating the school system, and can even link families with our NDIS support services. If you need help with the paperwork, we even have a dedicated NDIS referral form to make the process as smooth as possible.
Beyond the Therapy Room: Our Vision for the Community
Our Director, Prabath Yatawara, has always envisioned Inspire Health and Medical as more than just a series of clinics. From our roots in Croydon, Mitcham, and Lilydale, the goal has always been to create a "medical home" for our clients.
Bringing psychologists to Clyde North is just the beginning. We want to be a place where you feel known. Whether you are seeing Sherena Huang, Rachel Davey, or Maria Coelho, you are part of a care network that communicates and collaborates to ensure you get the best outcome.
Accessibility and Flexibility: Your Care, Your Way
We know that life in Clyde North can be busy. Between the school runs, work commutes, and trying to find a moment of peace, your own mental health can often fall to the bottom of the priority list. We want to lower the barriers to care:
- Short Wait Times: We prioritize getting you in to see a clinician as quickly as possible.
- Telehealth Options: If you can’t make it into the clinic, our psychologists can meet you where you are via secure video sessions.
- No Referral Needed: While a Mental Health Care Plan from your GP (like Dr. Shashi Prakash or Dr. Bahareh Khalili) can help with Medicare rebates, you are always welcome to book in as a private client or through the NDIS without one.
- A Range of Expertise: From trauma-informed care with Nicholas Seletic to support from Robert Wilesmith, we have a clinician for almost every need.
A Safe Space for Everyone
At Inspire Health and Medical, we are committed to being an inclusive service. This means we are a safe space for the LGBTQ+ community, people of all cultural backgrounds, and neurodivergent individuals. We believe that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and deep-seated care.
Our clinic is designed to be a sanctuary. From the moment you call us to the moment you finish your session with Leo, Maanya, or Nervelle, we want you to feel that you are in good hands.
