FAQs

  • My current rate is $150 per appointment.

    I also offer a limited number of discounted spots for those in need. If cost is a barrier, please reach out to discuss available options.

  • The number of sessions depends on many factors, like your concerns, availability, and financial situation. I recommend a minimum of 8 sessions, but if we’re working through deeper, long-term patterns or historical events, more sessions may be needed. In the end the longer you’re in therapy, the more you will grow. We can discuss this in detail during our first appointment.

  • I understand that sometimes things come up, and you may need to reschedule or cancel your appointment.

    If an appointment is cancelled with less than 24 hours notice before the commencement of that appointment, a cancellation fee of the full appointment amount may be charged.

    This policy is in place to ensure fairness to both the business and clients who may have wanted that appointment time. I appreciate your understanding.

    For more details, please refer to my Services Agreement.

  • Yes, I maintain a confidential practice in line with PACFA Codes of Ethics. Once you consent to the Services Agreement, everything you share will remain confidential and will only be used for best practices, such as note-taking and clinical support. However, there are rare exceptions where confidentiality may be broken, such as if required by law or if there’s a duty of care to you or others.

  • As a counselor and therapist, my focus is on empathetic listening and guiding clients through personal challenges using psychotherapy. This approach differs from the diagnostic and treatment model typically used by psychologists, so I cannot provide a formal diagnosis.

  • Not at this time. Unlike psychologists, counsellors are not Medicare-approved and cannot accept mental health care plans.

  • I am not an NDIS provider at this time.

  • I do not see clients under 18 years of age at this time.

  • That’s completely understandable! It’s important to feel a connection with your mental health professional. I recommend using PsychologyToday, a great resource where you can input specific criteria for what you’re looking for in a therapist. It will provide you with a list of practitioners in your area, including their prices, video introductions, and more.
