What can I expect from my first session?

People often feel anxious and apprehensiven prior to their first session. You don’t need to prepare a coherent narrative or story to tell your psychologist. Just show up, and your psychologist will help guide you through the process.

In the first session, your psychologist will want to know what’s brought you to therapy. They may also ask about other important facets of your life, such as who you live with, what you do for fun, and what interests you.

Your psychologist may also discuss what therapy will look like and any next steps forward.

Don’t worry! There’s no pressure to talk about anything you don’t feel comfortable talking about.

How many sessions will I need?

It’s difficult to say how many sessions you will need with your psychologist, and many clients find that they attend therapy for a much shorter, or longer, period of time than they initially expected. You will bring your own unique experiences and challenges to therapy, and ultimately it is up to you to decide how long you will need. Your psychologist will work with you to determine when it is the right time to end therapy.

What's the difference between a Clinical Psychologist and a Psychiatrist?

Don’t feel bad – even we still get confused sometimes!

The main difference between psychologists and psychiatrists is that a psychiatrist can prescribe medications. Psychologists, on the other hand, specialise in talking therapies.

Both types of treatment have shown to be effective for mental health issues. And studies demonstrate that talking therapies are just as effective at treating common mental health disorders than medication.

Can I claim money back for my sessions?

Yes, with a Mental Health Care Plan from your GP you can claim money back for your first 10 sessions every year. You will need to get a GP to write a referral with your psychologist’s name on it prior to your first session, and you should bring this referral to your first appointment.

Our convenient billing system will claim your Medicare rebate for you and send it straight to your nominated bank account. No need to fill out any complicated forms!
