Archer Street Health was founded by clinical psychologist Dr Philippa Cannan and psychiatrist Dr Anil Reddy.
After working together on an inpatient public mental health unit in Tasmania for over a decade, this clinic was founded in acknowledgement of the importance of multidisciplinary care for adults and children with mental health and behavioural difficulties.
We hope that by providing a comprehensive multidisciplinary service Archer Street Health will fill a gap in the mental health care services in Tasmania.
Our team comprises of consultant psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, occupational therapists, paediatricians and neurologists.
Mental health and behavioural conditions are often multi-faceted and require the care of more than one professional. It is common for individuals to need the care of one or more health professionals when experiencing a mental health problem.
Archer Street Health is a multi-disciplinary health service that aims to enhance patient outcomes by combining care from a number of professional disciplines to provide holistic care to our clients.
Archer Street Health understands that the need to travel between multiple locations for care can add inconvenience and be a barrier to patients receiving the best care. We aim to reduce this burden by providing a one-stop-shop for mental health and behavioural needs.
Our service facilitates increased communication between the practitioners that an individual sees which in turn provides our clients with a greater continuity of care.
Archer Street Health was born from a desire to provide comprehensive care by connected professionals to deliver good outcomes to our clients.
We aim to support every client’s individual needs throughout their journey; from the first step of seeking help to well managed conditions that minimally impact quality of life.
