Family

Families are complex and they are wonderful. They can be sources of such joy and such pain. As a GP for more than a decade, one of the truly wonderful parts of my job has been to understand a person within the context of their family. The family dynamic is such a critical and fascinating thing. It truly is dynamic, ever changing and always adapting as all the members of the family undergo their own change and life transitions.

For individual therapy to be most beneficial, there needs to be an understanding of the family system and context. Whilst I do not offer family therapy as a group with more than one patient, the individual therapy that I offer can help you to improve your communication and resolve conflicts within your unique family system.

FAQs

What fees can I expect?

Fees are payable at the time of your appointment. Face to face appointments require payment, in person, at your visit. This payment can be made via credit card, debit card or EFTPOS. Telehealth consultations also require payment at the time of your visit via credit card. Once payment is made, you will be issued with an invoice including the item number for the service provided and my provider number. This will allow you to access a Medicare Rebate for your session.

Medicare rebates can be obtained by using the Express Plus Medicare App or via your Medicare Online Account on mygov. Visit our fees and referral page for more.

Are there appointments available out of work hours?

Typical opening hours are from 8-5pm. Telehealth appointments are available and after hours appointments can be arranged on occasion by speaking with me directly.
