Fees & Appointments

General Counselling and Trauma Therapy

I offer 50-minute counselling sessions for $130 per session.

Trauma therapy can take time, and I understand that ongoing therapy can be a financial commitment. If longer-term support is needed, we can discuss options to help make the cost more manageable.

For general counselling, I offer reduced rates for clients experiencing financial hardship where possible. If cost is a concern, please feel welcome to discuss this with me.

Insomnia Treatment Program

The complete 6-session CBT-I program is $600, including your initial sleep assessment and five personalised treatment sessions.

Where I Work

All counselling and CBT-I services are available face-to-face in Tweed Heads or online via secure telehealth.

Medicare Rebates

Counselling with me is private and confidential — without the need for a Mental Health Treatment Plan or diagnosis.

Medicare rebates are currently not available for counselling services provided by counsellors. This means that sessions with me are paid for privately and cannot be claimed through a Mental Health Treatment Plan.

Psychologists who are eligible under the Medicare Better Access initiative can provide services that attract a Medicare rebate for eligible clients. However, the rebate does not cover the full cost of the appointment, so clients generally still pay a gap or out-of-pocket amount.

While my sessions do not attract a Medicare rebate, my standard fee is $130 for a 50-minute session. Depending on the psychologist's fee and the Medicare rebate available, the amount a client pays out of pocket for a psychologist may be similar.
