Encompass is a Public Benevolent Institution established by the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference and the Australian Conference of Leaders of Religious Institutes in 1997. It was initially established as a psychosexual program as part of the Australian Catholic Church's 9-Point Plan (in response to sexual boundary issues within the Church) but the service has since diversified to offer a wide range of psychological services for women and men from a variety of faiths and walks of life.
Encompass has an independent board of management and its staff are all professionally qualified. It offers two types of assessment as well as two separate residential programs, a continuing care program, a sabbatical program and a range of educational workshops and seminars.
The Encompass offices are located in Ashfield, Sydney, in the grounds of the Wesley Hospital.
