fees
My rate is below industry standard in an attempt to ensure therapy can remain accessible, particularly for those who face the greatest barriers to accessing safe, accessible and equitable mental health. Particularly for First Nations and BIPOC clients, safe and accessible services do not exist, and can be deeply unsafe and traumatising, with First Nations and BIPOC risking criminalisation and institutionalisation within the general mental health system.
Sliding scale and reduced rates are available upon request for those who require them; please note this is only available on Tuesdays, at the Footscray location or online. Sliding scale is not available on Thursdays at the Fitzroy location. Please send an email with some information about your situation and we can discuss this (this must be organised prior to our first session together).
I offer …
A standard rate of $120 per 50 minute session for individuals
A standard rate of $140 per 50 minute session for couples
A standard rate of $75 per 50 minute session for First Nations (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander) clients *
* Please note this in your booking or bring up in session. First Nations rates are not part of sliding scale agreements; these are seperate, standard rates for First Nations folk, that can be booked at Fitzroy, Footscray or online.

pay it forward
I encourage those that can afford, or hold significant privilege, to pay it forward (this will go towards covering the costs of clients accessing free and heavily reduced sessions).
