ABOUT US

Why Us

 

GVDC  aims to cater locally for people of all  ages who have developmental and associated mental health difficulties  and need assessment and/or ongoing support.


'No  need to travel to Melbourne' is our motto.


We  take pride in our understanding of neurodiversity as well as our  ability to assess and support people of all ages, across the lifespan,  from infancy and childhood through adolescence into adulthood.


Our  multidisciplinary team is made up of clinicians who have had many years of experience in the public sectors.


Our  counselling psychologist, Susan, occupational therapist, Hayley, and  clinical psychologist Tracy, were members of the former GV Autism  Spectrum Assessment Team (ASAT) at GV Health (GVH) under the clinical  leadership of Dr Michael Welham, Consultant Child & Adolescent  Psychiatrist. Tracy and Susan were coordinators of GV ASAT for many  years. Our speech pathologist, Kate is now a member of the local FASD  Clinic (see below).


Our Clinic is represented on the GVH Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) Clinic's  Community Resource Group. The FASD Clinic is the first of its kind in  Victoria and we have been proud supporters of this very important local  initiative.

Our Mission

Our  experienced allied and mental health professionals put your  needs first.  With  years of experience, our multidisciplinary team provides assessment and  support services that are right for you, regardless of your age. Our aim is to help you function and feel better. 

Our History


1997                               

Susan  Galambos  Colmer, Counselling Psychologist has had a small private practice in Shepparton since 1997. 


2017                               

Twenty years later, in 2017, Goulburn Valley Developmental  Clinic was established, out of two rooms in the Greater Shepparton  Business Centre (GSBC). 


2018 July                      

We began operations as GV Developmental Clinic (GVDC) Pty Ltd, with Susan as one of its Directors.   


2018 October              

We welcomed Sacha Finlayson as our Practice Manager. 


2018 December          

We moved into our current building where, for the first  time, we have 4 consulting rooms to work from. Our waiting area and consulting  rooms are child-friendly and our tea room is open to families.


2019                                

GV Developmental Clinic Pty Ltd was nominated and we were proud  finalists for the Shepparton Chamber of Commerce and Industry's 2019  White King - Pental / 95.3 Triple M Best New Business Award (Under 2  Years' Operation). We were most appreciative of the nomination.


2020                                

We continue to provide information, assessments and support for individuals, families, schools and  agencies/organisations, here in our beautiful Goulburn Valley.  

We  work in collaboration with referring GPs, Paediatricians and  Psychiatrists, be they located here in the Goulburn Valley or in  Melbourne. We hope to have a consultant paediatrician and/or  psychiatrist based in our clinic. We are always looking for clinicians to join our team.
