Individual Therapy (60 min)
Telehealth therapy across Australia, by video
Service Description
A 60-minute individual therapy session by video, anywhere in Australia. I work with people who are carrying something heavy and have not yet found the right place to put it down. That includes men carrying things they have not been able to say, multicultural clients tired of explaining their culture before they can talk about themselves, those with lived and living experience of mental health challenges or suicide, and people working through grief, trauma, depression, anxiety, and the long aftermath of difficult experiences. Sessions are paced around the work, not around a treatment timeline. The way I work is informed by trauma research and shaped to the person in front of me, rather than to a manualised approach. Fee: $200 per session. Payment is taken at the time of booking. I am not Medicare-registered for individual therapy, which means clients cannot claim a Medicare rebate. NDIS, EAP, Workcover, DVA, Victims of Crime, and Family Violence Brokerage funding are accepted; please mention this when booking. For more on who I work with and how, see the Online Therapy page.
Cancellation Policy
Notice of cancellation or rescheduling Clients and supervisees are asked to provide at least 72 hours' notice if they need to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Cancellations or rescheduling requests can be made by email or text. Cancellations or rescheduling with less than 72 hours' notice Cancellations or rescheduling requests made with less than 72 hours' notice are charged the full session fee. A rescheduled appointment within the same calendar week is treated as a fresh booking; the original session remains chargeable under this policy. Late arrival If you arrive late to your appointment, the session will proceed for the remaining scheduled time only. The session fee remains unchanged. If you arrive more than 15 minutes late, the appointment may need to be shortened, rescheduled, or cancelled, depending on availability and clinical appropriateness. Where an appointment cannot proceed due to late arrival, this is treated as a late cancellation. Non-attendance (no-shows) If you do not attend your appointment and no notice is provided, this will be recorded as non-attendance. The full session fee is charged. Practitioner cancellation Where the practitioner needs to cancel an appointment, the session is rescheduled at no cost at the next mutually available time. Repeated cancellations or non-attendance Three or more late cancellations or non-attendances within a six-month period will trigger a discussion about the current service arrangement. This discussion may include: Limiting advance bookings. Requiring payment in advance for future sessions. Reviewing whether the current service arrangement remains appropriate. The aim of this discussion is to support consistency, fairness, and the sustainability of the working relationship. Fees and payment Where a cancellation or non-attendance fee applies, the fee is the full cost of the scheduled session. Fees are the responsibility of the client or supervisee and are payable in accordance with invoicing arrangements. Outstanding fees may need to be settled before further appointments are confirmed. For services funded by third parties (for example, employer-funded supervision, NDIS, or other programs), cancellation arrangements may be governed by separate agreements or funding conditions, which apply in place of this policy where they conflict.
