About Thread
Weaving Mental Health Into Real Life
At THREAD Psychology, we see mental health as something that touches every part of your life - not just something you check in on when things go wrong. It's in the way you think, relate, lead, parent, and show up for yourself and others. We exist to help you strengthen that threadso it holds steady through whatever life brings.
Our mission is simple: to offer real, relatable support that works in the complexity of everyday life. Whether you’re an individual looking for better tools, a leader managing people, or part of a team navigating change, THREAD is here to support your growth with approaches that are practical, grounded, and built to last.
What Makes Thread Different -
Our Philosophy
We believe mental health isn’t something to be “ticked off” or confined to a session or seminar. It should be integrated into how we work, relate, lead, and live.
That’s why THREAD focuses on helping people build habits, mindsets, and strategies that hold up under pressure—not just in ideal conditions.
Whether we’re working with a client in therapy or consulting with a leadership team, our approach is built around real-world functionality. We focus on building capacity, not dependency.
Our work is grounded in proven psychological models such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and enriched by core psychological needs - belonging, autonomy, generosity, and mastery- to support growth across all areas of life.
Meet Dr. Dave Anthony
– Director & Principal Psychologist
Dr. Dave Anthony brings close to two decades of psychological experience across diverse and demanding environments —from combat zones to corporate HQs, elite sports teams to regional mine sites.
Known for his calm, practical style, Dave has worked alongside people in some of the most high-pressure situations imaginable. That exposure has shaped his down-to-earth approach to mental health - one that is flexible, honest, and always focused on real-life application.
His professional interests include performance psychology, workplace culture, and reshaping how men connect with their mental wellbeing. Dave’s also a firm believer that growth doesn’t require you to be a different person - it just asks you to get clear on what matters and act in line with it.
When he's not working, Dave enjoys life on the Sunshine Coast with his wife, two daughters, their dog, and a healthy amount of beach time.
