Your first session is an opportunity for your psychologist to get to know you and discuss what brings you to therapy. You'll explore your concerns, goals, and what you hope to achieve. This session helps your psychologist understand your unique situation and allows you to ask any questions about the therapeutic process.

With a Mental Health Treatment Plan from your GP, you can receive up to 10 Medicare-subsidised psychology sessions per calendar year. To access these, you will need a formal referral from your GP.
For each 50+ minute session, Medicare provides a rebate towards the cost of your session, with a gap fee payable on top. See our Pricing & Rebates page for current fees and rebate amounts.

Yes, many private health insurance funds provide rebates for psychology services. The amount varies depending on your level of cover and insurance provider. We can provide you with receipts to claim directly with your health fund.

The first session is 90 minutes long. Following sessions are about 50 minutes. Initially, weekly sessions are often most beneficial, but this can be adjusted based on your needs and progress. Some clients prefer fortnightly sessions, while others may need more intensive support initially.

We use evidence-based approaches tailored to your specific needs, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, Schema Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness-based interventions, and person-centred therapy.
The approach we use will depend on your preferences and what works best for your situation. See how we can help.

Yes, confidentiality is a cornerstone of therapy. Everything you share is kept strictly confidential, with very limited exceptions related to safety (if there's a risk of harm to yourself or others) or legal requirements. We'll discuss confidentiality limits in detail during your first session.
