About Karunya Health
Karunya Health is a specialist interventional psychiatry clinic located in the serene suburb of Rippleside, Geelong. Our name is rooted in the Sanskrit word for kindness and compassion, and those values guide everything we do — from the way we designed our clinic space to the way our team supports every patient through their treatment journey.
We are a family-owned local Geelong business, founded in April 2026 by husband-and-wife duo Dr. Jossy Antony (Consultant Psychiatrist) and Gabrielle Quinn (Mental Health Occupational Therapist). Together, they envisioned a dedicated space where patients living with Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) could access cutting-edge interventional psychiatry in an environment that feels genuinely safe, warm, and restorative.
Karunya Health specialises in clinically supervised nasal spray therapy as part of our interventional psychiatry programme — a breakthrough treatment approved for adults who have not responded adequately to two or more conventional antidepressant medications. Under the expert clinical oversight of Dr. Jossy Antony, every treatment plan is individually tailored to balance the physical neural response with compassionate, holistic support.
Our clinic has been meticulously designed to feel like a sanctuary rather than a sterile medical environment. Thoughtful acoustic design, calming aesthetics, and attentive nursing care combine to ensure that patients feel welcomed, held, and nurtured throughout each session. We believe that healing happens best when people feel truly seen and supported.
We serve adults across the Geelong region and greater Victoria who are living with treatment-resistant depression, including those covered by Medicare, private health insurance, DVA, and WorkCover schemes. Our administrative team works closely with referring GPs and psychiatrists to streamline the intake process and ensure continuity of care.
At Karunya Health, our guiding philosophy is simple: Compassionate Care, Grounded in Safety. We are honoured to walk alongside our patients on the path toward renewed hope and wellbeing.
