About Dr. Newcombe
Anthony Newcombe worked as a specialist psychiatrist in private practice for over thirty years. During that time he treated patients of all ages who suffered from a wide range of disorders. These include conditions related to anxiety, depression, psychosis, eating, adjustment and stress to name a few. He used individual, family and group therapy approaches along with holistic lifestyle interventions including functional based interventions and behavioural activation.
Anthony has postgraduate qualifications in medicine and music. Both his formal training and clinical experience have informed his committed and strongly held view that best practice in mental health must be holistically based in both prevention and treatment of mental health disorders.
