Services & Fees
Starting therapy can feel like a significant step. I aim to create a calm and supportive space where you can speak openly, reflect on what you are experiencing, and begin to move forward in a way that feels right for you.
Services
Reaching Out
A 15-minute phone consultation, free of charge and without obligation. You can call or text me directly at 0452 129 860 or email me at Anneke@anestacounselling.com.au.
This conversation provides an opportunity to briefly share what has brought you to therapy, ask any questions, and assess whether working together feels like the right fit.
If we both feel comfortable moving forward, we can schedule your first session.
Individual Sessions
Individual sessions are available in 50-minute or 80-minute appointments.
Sessions are typically held weekly or fortnightly, particularly at the beginning of therapy, although the frequency can be adjusted according to your needs and circumstances.
Appointments are available in-person at my consulting room in Pymble on Sydney’s North Shore or via telehealth.
Couples and Family Sessions
Couples and family sessions are offered as 80-minute appointments, allowing sufficient time for everyone to be heard and for meaningful work to take place.
These sessions can be scheduled weekly, fortnightly, or monthly, depending on the situation and what feels most supportive.
Appointments are available in-person in Pymble on Sydney’s North Shore.
Fees
Rebates
At present, psychotherapy and counselling services are not eligible for Medicare rebates. This is expected to evolve as the National Standards for Counsellors and Psychotherapists in Australia are finalised.
Some private health funds offer rebates for counselling or psychotherapy services, depending on your level of cover. Clients are encouraged to check directly with their health fund to determine eligibility.
