Psychology in EastFremantle,Built Around You.
Evidence-based, individualised therapy for adults navigating anxiety, trauma, and life’s harder chapters. A calm, private space in the heart of East Fremantle.
A different kind of psychology practice.
Sage Psychological Services is a private psychology practice in East Fremantle, offering thoughtful, individualised care to adults across the Fremantle and wider Perth community. We are deliberately small. That is the point.
When you come to Sage you work directly with Jacob Jones, a registered psychologist who takes the time to understand not just what you are experiencing, but why. There is no revolving door of practitioners and no one-size-fits-all programme. There is simply a considered, collaborative approach shaped around your history, your goals, and the pace that feels right for you.
Our approach draws on evidence-based treatments including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), integrated with psychodynamic and schema-based work where it helps. Whether you are seeking support for the first time or returning to therapy after a break, you will find a space here that is safe, unhurried, and genuinely tailored to you.
What we help with.
People come to Sage for many reasons, and rarely for a single, tidy issue. Below are some of the areas Jacob works with most often. If what brings you here is not listed, it is still worth a conversation.
Grief, loss, and bereavement
Room to sit with loss and everything that surrounds it, without a timeline.
Work-related stress and burnout
For burnout, chronic work stress, and the moments when nothing seems to recharge you.
Confidence, self-esteem, and identity
For working with self-esteem, identity, and the quieter questions of who you are.
Relationship difficulties and interpersonal patterns
For interpersonal patterns and the same kinds of difficulty that keep showing up.
Anger and emotional regulation
For emotional regulation and the reactions that get in the way of the life you want.
Alcohol, substance, and other dependencies
Support for alcohol, substance, and habits that have grown bigger than they were meant to.
Each of these is met with the same principle: therapy is tailored to the individual, drawing on the treatment approaches best suited to what you are working through.
Our therapeutic approaches.
At Sage we believe therapy is not a one-size-fits-all solution. We take a personalised approach that draws on several evidence-based modalities to create the right programme for you. Our two areas of particular focus are:
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
A structured, practical, and well-researched approach that helps you recognise and shift the thought and behaviour patterns keeping you stuck. CBT is a first-line treatment for anxiety and depression.
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)
A specialised, evidence-based therapy for trauma that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories so they lose their grip. EMDR is one of Jacob’s core areas of training.
Alongside these, Jacob draws on Schema Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and psychodynamic psychotherapy, selecting and blending approaches to suit your needs rather than fitting you to a method.
Why choose Sage.
