Our Therapy and Counselling Services
Individual Therapy
Doing-the-work in individual therapy is powerful stuff. Having everything centred around your needs, and a totally safe space to explore your deepest thoughts and emotions, is a moving experience. Overcome challenges, learn coping strategies, or achieve personal growth with a therapist that gets you
Couples THERAPY
Many are sold the story that a relationship (with The One) will soothe all of your hurts and fulfil all of your needs. In reality, relationships are the training ground for our deepest growth. Couples counselling empowers you to reignite the spark, improve communication and strengthen your connection
Family Therapy
Families operate like mini systems. Each family has its own unique strategy for healthy or dysfunctional coping built into the mix. Our Neutral Bay practitioners would love to give your family the birds eye view of your family system, so all adults, adolescents and children in your lovely tribe can support each other
Our Approach to Mental Health
At our Neutral Bay practice we believe therapy is a collaborative journey of self-discovery and growth and it is our privilege to join you at each therapy session. We prioritise open communication to truly understand your experiences and goals. Together, we’ll craft a personalised approach utilising a variety of evidence-based techniques proven most effective for your needs. This game plan, coupled with honesty, compassion and powerful skills empowers you to gain deeper self-awareness and personal agency
To mention just a few, some of the strategies we use in our work may be Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients manage painful thoughts, feelings, stress and trauma. While specialising in high performance and human optimisation, our therapists also have extensive experience working with a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and relationship issues
Therapy helps clients navigate life's challenges, building resilience and ultimately unlocking their full potential. Everyone should get the opportunity to work towards a fulfilling and empowered life where they feel equipped to navigate life with greater confidence

Frequently Asked Questions
-
We offer a range of personalised therapy services to meet your unique needs. This includes individual therapy, couples counselling or adolescent therapy. Each psychologist on our Neutral Bay team has a solid foundation in gold standard therapy approaches (like CBT, DBT, ACT), and then have additionally picked up further skills and training for lived experiences close to their heart
For example Alice, specialises in issues relating to brain gut interaction such as IBS, while David offers The Gottman Method for relationships. If you're after a particular therapy style from one of our practitioners, just send a quick message to our helpful admin team. They know our clinicians like a back of their hand, and will be able to tell you who offers what you are seeking
-
The number of sessions depends on your individual goals and circumstances. Some people benefit from short-term therapy (6-12 sessions), while others may prefer to build a longer-term therapeutic relationship. We recommend weekly sessions initially if you are experiencing significant distress. As you progress, sessions can be adjusted to fortnightly or monthly intervals. Time or financial constraints? We can work together on a "brief solution focused" approach. This involves tackling specific goals in stages, like managing anxiety or sleep problems, leaving more complex issues for later.

We accept a variety of private health insurance plans. For specific details about coverage and participating providers, please contact our Neutral Bay office directly or check the "Rates and Rebates" page on our website.
-
All of our Neutral bay psychologists are registered with Medicare, so you can claim rebates on 10 sessions with them per calendar year. To be eligible for medicare rebates, you will need a doctor's referral called a Mental Health Care Plan that you can book in to receive at most GP practices.
At this time, Medicare do not provide mental health plan rebates for sessions with awesome psychotherapists (silly we know!) However, our psychotherapists are registered as providers with most private health insurers. So you can claim private health insurance rebates depending on your cover
-
While we are very fortunate to have medicare in Australia, we cannot claim 100% of the session fee back. Currently you are able to claim back $96.65 for a for a 50+ minute session with a Registered Psychologist if you have a Mental Health Care Plan
