Do I need a referral to book an appointment?

No referral is needed. You’re welcome to contact me directly to arrange an initial session.

Can I use a Mental Health Care Plan?

Yes. If your GP provides a Mental Health Care Plan, you may be eligible for Medicare rebates for up to 10 sessions per calendar year.

Do you accept NDIS funding?

Yes – if you are self-managed. I do not accept plan-managed NDIS funding directly at this time. If you're plan-managed, please speak with your Plan Manager about possible funding options.

What can I expect in the first session?

The first session is a chance to get to know you and your child, explore your concerns, and begin forming a shared understanding. We’ll talk about goals and what kind of support might be most helpful moving forward.

How many sessions will my child need?

Every young person is different. Some benefit from short-term support, while others may need longer-term guidance. We’ll work together to review progress regularly and adjust the plan as needed.

Do you provide assessments?

As a Clinical & Educational and Developmental Psychologist, I'm qualified to conduct and interpret a wide range of psychological and diagnostic assessments. My practice is primarily focused on therapeutic work, supporting children, adolescents, young adults and their families through individual therapy, therapeutic groups and parent consultations.

If your child has completed an assessment elsewhere, I'm happy to review the results and incorporate the findings into our therapeutic planning. I also work closely with families and schools to help interpret reports and translate recommendations into practical strategies that support everyday functioning at home and in the classroom.

If a new assessment is needed, I can discuss the most appropriate options with you, provide referrals to trusted colleagues where appropriate, or let you know if assessment appointments become available within my practice.
