Session Types and Fees

Session Types

Initial Consult — 15-minute online or phone chat, free of charge, to discuss what brings you here and to ensure the fit feels right.  

  • Ongoing Sessions — 60-minute or 90-minute appointments held weekly, fortnightly, monthly or at a pace you prefer. These appointments can be in person or via telehealth (secure video or phonecall).

  • Couples / Family — 60-minute or 90-minute appointments held weekly, fortnightly, or monthly or at a pace you prefer. These appointments can be in person or via telehealth (secure video or phonecall).

Walk-and-talk Sessions are available to clients based in Albury-Wodonga and surrounds. 

  • I offer a sliding-scale fee structure to help make therapy more accessible and manageable for your circumstances. Send me a message or book a free 15-minute consult so we can chat together to find a level that works for you.

  • Sessions take place in a quiet, comfortable setting designed to support reflection and privacy. I also offer 'walk and talk' sessions for clients who prefer gentle movement during therapy; these sessions take place in a community-based setting such as a public park, café, library, etc.

  • Please provide at least 24 hours’ notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations or missed appointments will incur the full session fee.

  • At present, Medicare rebates are not offered, but this is expected to evolve soon with the finalisation of the National Standards for Counsellors and Psychotherapists in Australia.

    Private health fund rebates are available with:

    • Bupa

    • GU Health

    Clients eligible for Financial Assistance Scheme (FAS, formerly VOCAT) counselling funding are also welcome.

  • Do I need a referral?

    No, you can book directly.

    Are sessions confidential?

    Yes. The only exceptions are legal requirements related to safety or risk.

    How does the first session work?

    You outline what brings you here, and the session focuses on clarifying goals and establishing how therapy will proceed. 

    How often should I attend?

    Most people attend weekly or fortnightly. Frequency can be adjusted as your needs change.

    Do you offer online sessions?

    Yes. Sessions can be delivered securely by phone or video.

    What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

    Cancelling or rescheduling a session with less than 24 hours’ notice will incur the full fee. Exceptions can be made in extenuating circumstances.

    What issues do you work with?

    Stress, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, identity concerns, infertility, life transitions, and a wide range of emotional or psychological challenges.

    Do you work with men and women?

    Yes. I work with adults, adolescents, and couples. Everyone is welcome here.

    Are longer sessions available?

    Yes. 90-minute appointments are offered for individuals, couples, and families.
