“The purpose of psychotherapy is to set people free.” Rollo May
Psychotherapy is a talk therapy rooted in the principle that dialogue with a skilled practitioner encourages self-awareness, emotion regulation, growth and psychological health. Psychotherapy is a treatment of mental and emotional pain and disturbance by psychological rather than medical means.
A psychotherapist is not your friend, colleague or family member and this distinction can allow you greater freedom to explore your life. Verbalising your story in the presence of another human being can be a powerful encounter. Psychotherapy aims to be a simultaneously respectful, collaborative and explorative process where the therapist accompanies you, enabling you to process your past and present experiences and live more fully.
One key aspect of Psychotherapy is the therapeutic relationship which offers you an opportunity to observe and recognise patterns of behaviour and experience a safe, non judgmental and empathic relationship. Psychotherapy is an approach that respects your capacity for healing as a whole person including body, feelings, mind and spirit.
Typically Psychotherapy enables you to reflect upon and process past experiences whilst also considering how your past might be influencing your present lived experience. Psychotherapy offers the opportunity to re-write scripts and narratives that no longer serve you, healing old wounds and adaptations that the body and mind have constructed. The process of Psychotherapy allows you to re-construct and integrate healthier, more fulfilling and embodied beliefs and experiences.
The application of Psychotherapy can vary between practitioners and often combines wisdom from Neuroscience, Humanistic Psychology, Psychiatry, Philosophy, Social Sciences, Eastern knowledge, Nature and the Arts.
Psychotherapy is an active experiential process that works on making unconscious patterns, conscious. Psychotherapy gently challenges negative core beliefs, creating opportunity for new neural pathways and more functional attitudes toward yourself and others. Psychotherapy with a skilled practitioner can enable you to recognise, name and experience emotions within a safe and contained environment building resilience and distress tolerance. Talking with a practitioner, vocalizing your experience slows thinking, allows you to organise thoughts, investigate them and decide whether they remain applicable for you. These body based processes regulate the nervous system and re-wire the brain. Your willingness and engagement in the process and practice of tools and techniques offered by the therapist are hugely impactful on the efficacy of Psychotherapy.
Raise Self-awareness, realise more choices and move through stuckness so you can get to where you want to be in life and fulfill your purpose.

There’s no such thing as a silly question, especially when your health is concerned. Here are some of our Psychotherapy FAQs. For any other advice on love, life and Psychotherapy drop us a line.
For individual therapy:
• sessions are 50 minutes in length
• meeting weekly
Relationship/couple therapy:
• sessions are 60 minutes in length,
• meeting weekly or biweekly.
The length of therapy is based on individual needs. There may be times when it is helpful to meet more frequently. The regularity and consistency of appointments has an impact on the breadth and depth of what can be addressed in the therapy. Sometimes shortterm, time limited work suits specific issues and resources. For depth work, an open ended approach is more appropriate.
Regularly reviewing progress and working toward an ending are important and fruitful parts of the work and something to reflect upon with your therapist.
Prior to your first session you could ask yourself the following:
• What would I like to work on?
• What is my desired outcome?
• What am I prepared to do to achieve these goals?
• What are the other support structures I have in place?
No, you don’t need a GP referral or a Mental Health Care Plan to access Psychotherapy services. At this time Medicare do not cover Psychotherapy and Counseling services.
Depending on your specific coverage, you may qualify for a rebate from your insurer. Direct Billing is not provided.
Creating a safe space to engage in therapy requires reliability and consistency which is why your appointment time is dedicated just for you. We also recognise life can be unpredictable, therefore we require 2 business days notice to change or cancel an appointment. We will make every effort to reschedule but this might not always be possible. Sessions which are missed or cancelled with less than the required notice are chargeable.
