Therapy for Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, and life transitions
Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, a major life change, or the effects of trauma, therapy here is grounded in safety and collaboration. Sessions are available in person via Telehealth, so you can access support wherever you're based across Australia.
What to expect?
Getting started
We'll begin with a brief consultation call, where you can share a bit about what's bringing you to therapy and ask any questions you have. This is a chance for us both to see if it feels like a good fit, with no pressure to commit.
Your first session
Our first full session is mostly about getting to know you — your history, what's going on in your life right now, and what you're hoping to get out of therapy. There's no pressure to have it all figured out; we'll go at your pace.
Ongoing sessions
Sessions typically run 50 minutes, usually weekly or biweekly, depending on what feels right for you. Together we'll build a rhythm that supports steady progress while respecting your life outside of therapy.
My Approach
My approach is trauma-informed, meaning we move at a pace that feels safe and never push past what you're ready for. Depending on what's most useful for you, I draw on ACT and CBT to help you understand patterns of thought and behaviour, along with somatic exercises that bring the body into the work. We'll check in regularly on what's working and adjust as needed, so therapy stays responsive to where you actually are. More about my background and approach here.
Fees & Logistics
Session fees
Each session costs $180.
Medicare rebates - how do they work?
A Medicate rebate of $87.25 is available for those with a Mental Health Treatment Plan, and Private Health fund rebates are available for those with HCF, Medibank, Bupa, Teachers Health Fund, Doctors Health, St Lukes Health, and ARHGAPAS.
After our session, I will process the payment and have Medicare send the rebate direct to your account.
Confidentiality and Cancellation policy
What you share in session is confidential, with a few legal exceptions (such as risk of harm to yourself or others) that I'll review with you at the start.
