About Me
COPE is a multi-disciplinary private practice providing mental health services to clients located in Perth and NDIS registered provider. COPE is a family-run business managed by the founder Dr Hugo Gonzales and director Michiel Gonzales. Our values, mission, and approach are grounded in the founding director’s values of empathy, compassion, and making a difference in the lives of others. This is reinforced by COPE’s family governance approach and a strong connection to the people who form part of COPE – our clients, their families, staff, and the local community. Our Vision is to provide the highest level of psychological and mental health care that extends beyond the alleviation of symptoms. We seek to reduce emotional suffering and enhance the well-being of individuals, families, and society using psychoanalytic psychotherapy as a clinical approach and a widely applicable and evolving way of understanding human experience to create lasting change.
