What is counselling and how can it help me?Counselling is a process in which a trained professional provides confidential support and guidance to help individuals overcome personal challenges, improve their wellbeing and achieve their goals. Through a collaborative effort between the counsellor and the client, counselling provides a non-judgemental space for people to express their thoughts and feelings, clarify concerns, problem solve, develop new coping strategies and increase self-awareness.
-
How can I afford counselling?Our service provides an affordable alternative. The maximum donation for a face to face/ tele-health 60 minute session is $30. No doctor’s referral or mental health plan is required. No one is turned away due to an inability to pay, an affordable amount can be discussed.

How do I find the right counsellor for me?Like relationships, finding the right counsellor that makes you feel secure, at ease and has the experience you need takes time and experimentation. If you don’t feel like you’re getting enough out of your session, please let your counsellor know so they can adjust their approach or offer you an alternate therapist. Check out our team and get to know everyone!

How often should I go to counselling?How often you should attend counselling is a great discussion to have between you and your chosen therapist. We are here to support you and will do our best to match your needs whether this be weekly, fortnightly or monthly bookings.
