If you would like to discuss whether my service is right for you, or to arrange an appointment, I can be contacted via email. Please provide your name and contact details and some brief information about what you would like help with. I will respond as soon as I can.

Availability

I'm sorry, I do not have any availability to see new clients at the moment.

Do I need a referral?

No, you do not need a referral, you are able to contact me directly. However, you may also be referred by a health professional (e.g., GP).

Privacy & Confidentiality

Your privacy is important. I am legally and ethically bound to make sure our sessions are confidential. That means that I will not share what is talked about with anyone else, without your consent. There are, however, some exceptions to this.

If I am concerned that you or another person could be at immediate risk of harm
if I am required, by law

If a third party (e.g., an employer, insurer) contributes to the payment of your sessions, they are not automatically entitled to access your personal information. If there is a requirement that limited information is shared, it will be discussed with you from the beginning.

Liaison with Other Healthcare Providers

To help provide the best care, it can sometimes be helpful to link in with other health professionals who are also caring for you or your child. If I feel this would be helpful, I will only talk to them with your consent.

Fees

Therapy: Sessions are $200 per 60 minute session. Payment is required at the end of each session - eftpos or internet banking only.

Sometimes a subsidy is available for those on Income Support (please talk to WINZ to find out more).
Some people may also be eligible for a contribution towards payments by external services or insurance companies (please check that your insurance policy covers psychology).

Assessment Fees - please see the assessment page for details.

Change of Appointment/Cancellation Policy 

If you need to cancel or change your appointment, please provide at least 24 hours notice. Sessions not attended, or cancelled within 24 hours of the appointment will be charged 50% of the session fee.

Urgent Help

If you are concerned about someone's immediate safety, please call 111. If you are in need of urgent mental health assistance, but safety is not an immediate concern, please contact the 24 hour crisis service, Te Haika (ph: 0800 745 477).
