Frequently Asked Questions

  • Before our first session, I would like to offer you a free 10 minute phone consultation to get a sense of your therapeutic needs. If working together is beneficial, we can go ahead with either an open-ended arrangement, or agree to a fixed number of sessions.

    Once we have organised a time to meet for our first session, you can expect unconditional support and care for your mental health requirements within a safe and therapeutic space.

    In our first session I will ask you to read over a confidentiality and costs agreement for sessions.

  • Using a non-pathologising, collaborative approach in the counselling room, narrative therapy styles can draw out the stories of teenagers and young adults, giving them agency to write and re-rewrite their stories in a safe space.

    My style of therapy places you in the driving seat of your story - I’m there to listen and guide you along.

  • I understand things come up and sometimes, we need to cancel sessions. Please provide me with 48 hours for a cancellation as this ensures I can operate a smooth business and meet the needs of all my clients.

  • For in-person sessions, I offer 60 minute sessions at $150 per session.

    For video conferencing calls (using Zoom), I charge $120 per session.

    I also offer sliding scale fees for clients who cannot pay the full fee, or where paying the full fee is a barrier to accessing counselling.

    Counselling and psychotherapy are treatments, not luxuries, and I do not want costs to become a barrier to accessing Red Hill Therapy. Please reach out to me about sliding scale fees and we can come up with a plan together.

    Unfortunately, Medicare rebates are not available to counsellors and psychotherapists. This is why I make every attempt to keep my rates competitive. If costs are an issue for you, please reach out privately and we can figure something out.
