For GPs and Referrers
I work with adolescents and adults with a wide range of presenting issues. My treatment of clients involves a flexible treatment plan and strategies to reduce symptoms, promote autonomy and resilience.
I am not able to provide crisis support and will usually refer individuals on to an alternative service if there is a significant risk issue.
If you require urgent assistance call Lifeline 13 11 14 or Suicide Line 1300 651 251
I am happy to discuss new referrals on 9009 5291.

This government initiative applies to people with various mental health conditions including anxiety, depression, sleep issues and many others. See your GP and ask if this applies to you. Rebates of $84.80 for up to 10 sessions per year.Your Private Health Insurance
If your private health extras cover psychological sessions, you may be eligible for a partial rebate. I recommend you contact your provider for further info about your coverage.
Private Sessions
If you are not eligible for Medicare and don’t have private health you pay for the sessions out of your own pocket.
