Sessions are based on your preference and can be weekly, fortnightly, monthly, 6wkly or even quarterly. It is helpful to let some life happen in between appointments, but different seasons may require different levels of support. 

As much as possible would be great. This helps me to manage my calendar and availabilities for others. I know sometimes things come up without alot of warning, but letting me know as soon as you can if you need to cancel is super helpful. If notice is less than 24 hours then this may incur a cancelation fee. 

Yes, your information is confidential and is not released to anyone else without your prior consent. The only exceptions to this, is if there is any concern about your immediate safety (including self harm or suicidal ideation) then your safety overrides confidentiality and others may be contacted. The only other exception is my requirement for supervision, but all care is taken in de-identifying any cases discussed.  

You do not need a Mental Health Care Plan, but you are welcome to access one. You can ask your GP to write one up, which means Medicare will give you a rebate for 10 sessions per calendar year. 

A Mental Health Care Plan, is a plan that is written up by your GP upon your request and considers areas of support around mental health. Every plan is valid for 12months before it expires.

The original plan covers 6 sessions, following this there is a follow up review with your GP, who can then review your plan for another 4 sessions- resulting in 10 sessions within the plan period.

These sessions are entitled to a Medicare rebate of $101.55 (July 2026) per session. 

Please note, there is also a limit of 10 sessions within a calendar year as well.
