No. You can book directly without a referral from your GP or another health professional.

You can attend counselling if you have a Mental Health Care Plan, but I'm unable to provide Medicare rebates. Counselling sessions are privately funded.

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other, explore what's brought you to therapy and discuss what you'd like to work towards.I'll ask questions to better understand your experiences, relevant history and current circumstances. You don't need to have everything figured out or know exactly where to begin.We'll also discuss how we might work together and what approaches could be helpful. The first session will look a little different depending on the service you've booked.

Private health rebates may be available for Clinical Hypnotherapy through participating health funds, depending on your level of cover. You will need to check directly with your health fund to confirm eligibility.Private health rebates aren't currently available for Individual Therapy, EMIT or Couples Therapy services.

Yes. I offer online appointments across Australia, as well as in-person appointments in Aberglasslyn, Hunter Valley.

You don't need to know exactly which approach will suit you before booking, so if you're unsure start with an Individual Therapy session. We can explore what you're experiencing, what you'd like to work towards and which approaches might be helpful.

You'll receive an appointment reminder three days before your session.I understand that life happens and sometimes appointments need to change so each case will be considered individually. The cancellation policy is:48 hours' or more notice: No cancellation fee.24-48 hours' notice: 50% of the session fee.Less than 24 hours' notice, same-day cancellations or missed appointments: 100% of the session fee.When you book an appointment, that time is reserved specifically for you. Short-notice cancellations and missed appointments mean I'm often unable to offer that time to someone else.This policy helps me manage my availability fairly while keeping appointments accessible to other clients.
