Every person's journey is different, and therapy is tailored to your individual needs, goals and pace.

Our first two sessions focuses on understanding what has brought you to therapy, exploring your current concerns and relevant history, and discussing your goals for therapy. Together, we'll begin developing an understanding of your experiences and consider the most helpful way forward.

This includes identifying areas of focus, considering a session frequency that suits your needs, and exploring any other factors that may support your wellbeing throughout the therapeutic process.

My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed and neuroaffirming. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all model, therapy is guided by your goals and integrates evidence-based approaches that best support your individual needs.

If you are specifically interested in EMDR, suitability will be discussed in your first session. Please see the EMDR page for further information.

Getting started is simple.

Select Contact to Book and complete the enquiry form, indicating that you're interested in Individual Therapy. I'll then be in touch to answer any questions, discuss appointment availability, confirm the consultation fee and arrange your first appointment.

Once your appointment has been confirmed, you'll receive a secure intake form to complete before we meet.

Appointments are primarily available on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, with additional appointments occasionally available depending on availability.

Not necessarily, you may attend therapy in one of three ways:

Medicare

If you have a current Mental Health Treatment Plan and referral from your GP, you may be eligible to receive a Medicare rebate for up to ten sessions in a calendar year.

Private Appointments

You are welcome to attend privately without a referral.

This option provides flexibility if you have used your Medicare sessions, prefer not to access Medicare, or simply wish to self-fund your care.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on your level of cover, you may be able to claim a rebate through your private health insurer after payment.

As cover varies between insurers and policies, I recommend checking directly with your provider regarding your individual entitlements.

Individual Therapy (50 minutes): $220

If you have a valid Mental Health Treatment Plan, and referral from your GP, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate (currently $101.55) for up to ten psychology sessions each calendar year. Medicare rebates are processed following payment of your appointment.

Private health insurance rebates may also be available depending on your level of cover. As policies vary between insurers, I recommend contacting your private health fund directly to confirm your eligibility and any applicable rebates.

Payment is due on the day of your appointment. Where relevant, Medicare rebates will be processed after payment is received. An invoice and receipt will be provided for your records.

Individual therapy is available for adults (18 years and over) seeking support for a range of emotional, psychological and life experiences.

You don't need to be in crisis, or have everything figured out before reaching out. Many people come to therapy because they feel overwhelmed, stuck, are navigating a significant life transition, or simply want a deeper understanding of themselves.

I welcome people from all cultural backgrounds, faiths, relationship structures, genders and sexualities, and strive to provide a safe, respectful and inclusive space where your individual experiences and identity are valued.

At present, I am unable to provide:

• Therapy for children or adolescents

• Couples or relationship therapy

• Specialist eating disorder treatment

• Specialist alcohol and other drug treatment

• Crisis or emergency mental health services

If you're unsure whether Seed Psychology Services is the right fit for your needs, you're very welcome to get in touch. If another service would be better suited to support you, I'll let you know before you book.

Please note: Seed Psychology Services is not a crisis or emergency mental health service. If you require urgent support, please contact your GP, your local mental health crisis service, attend your nearest Emergency Department, or call 000 if there is an immediate risk to your health or safety.

All therapy sessions are provided securely via telehealth, allowing you to access support from the comfort and privacy of your own home, anywhere in Australia.

Prior to your appointment, you'll receive a secure link to join your session. All you need is a private space, a reliable internet connection, and a computer, tablet or phone with a camera and microphone. Where possible, a quiet space with minimal distractions allows you to get the most from your session.

At the same time, I recognise that life doesn't always fit neatly around therapy. Parenting young children, caring responsibilities, feeding an infant, sensory needs, or other aspects of daily life may naturally become part of our work together. Sessions are flexible and responsive to your individual circumstances, and we'll work together to create an environment that feels as comfortable, accessible and supportive as possible.

Many people find telehealth to be a flexible and comfortable way to engage in therapy, particularly when balancing work, parenting or other commitments.
