The Lawson Clinic is the first specialist psychiatric facility
in Australia to offer treatment for depression and bipolar disorder based on a Clinical Model developed
by the world renowned Black Dog Institute.

The Black Dog Institute’s Clinical Model was the
culmination of over 20 years research by
leading Australian Psychiatrists at Prince Henry
and Prince of Wales Hospitals, Sydney, Australia.

Its application leads to a more specific diagnosis
of depressive or bipolar subtype and this in turn
results in a treatment plan that is shaped to
address a patient’s particular condition and its causes.
