Psychology services
My private practice provides therapeutic services to individuals who are wanting to reduce the amount of stress they are experiencing in their lives. I incorporate mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy approaches to support you to live more in the present moment and to take action to live a more fulfilling life. Your current habits and beliefs will be challenged and in partnership, changes will be identified to ensure that you are achieving consistent performance in the areas of your life that are most important to you.
In session, my objective is to support clients to live a more fulfilled and richer life. Together, we work to develop new skills to handle difficult thoughts, feelings and emotions rather than skills to avoid / reject them by:
- accepting what is out of your immediate control and
- committing to action that improves your life.
I offer support for the following:
- anxiety disorders (including phobias and OCD)
- depression
- stress management
- burnout
- sleep issues
- grief and loss
- anger management
- relationship problems
- low self-esteem or self-confidence
- life transitions and change
Fees
The APS approved fee for psychology consultation services is presently $267 per session (that runs between 45-60 minutes). The cost of a consultation with myself (approximately 50 minutes) is $200, which is payable directly after your session.
If you have a current Mental Health Care Plan in place from your GP you will be eligible to access a Medicare rebate of $92.90 per session for up to 10 sessions (per calendar year).
Alternatively, please check your insurance fund to determine whether you are covered for a rebate for Psychological services. Please note that you cannot claim under Medicare and your private health insurance at the same time.
