When we meet, I will begin by asking a few questions to understand what you are seeking and how I can best support you. I sometimes use brief feedback forms at the beginning and end of each session to ensure we stay aligned with your goals and that you feel the work is helpful.
Therapy conversations focus on identifying what you want to be different in your life and working together towards that change. The number of sessions varies—some people attend 3–5 sessions, while others continue for 9 or more. Each session is approximately one hour. Engaging in a “Single Session Approach” is also an option in the right circumstances. Click the link for some background.

If you have a Mental Health Treatment Plan and a referral from your GP, Medicare offers a rebate of $98.95 for 6–10 sessions per calendar year.
(Please note: Medicare rebates do not apply to supervision sessions, although supervision invoices may be used for tax purposes.)
Private health fund rebates may be available, depending on your provider and level of cover. You cannot claim both Medicare and private health for the same session. Please check your rebate eligibility before booking.
Reduced fees may be available for Health Care Card holders, people experiencing financial hardship, or those with part-time work. Please contact Louise for details.
For existing clients, (click this link) the secure online portal allows you to book, change, or cancel appointments. If you cannot view your bookings, please log in again—the security settings reset regularly.
If you are a new client, please reach out via email so that we can arrange a time for a brief, 10-minute phone or email conversation prior to booking. It is important to establish suitability to ensure we are the right therapeutic fit—this is particularly important if you intend to use a Mental Health Treatment Plan. I can also provide some alternative suggestions as part of this process. Email psychology@envisionsr.com

I cannot respond to third-party requests for information about any individual. Requests must come directly from the individual concerned, in first-person communication, or via their formally appointed representative.
Upholding this policy should not be interpreted as confirmation of whether someone is or has been a client. This is my standard privacy practice and reflects a commitment to confidentiality, autonomy, and record integrity.
