Evidence-based therapy,
delivered where you are.
One-to-one sessions with qualified psychologists drawing on CBT, ACT, schema therapy and trauma-focused approaches, reviewed against your care plan every six sessions.
Therapy that actually
fits into your life
Our psychologists work with you over structured sessions to understand what's keeping you stuck and build practical tools to move forward. Every session is coordinated with your nurse and any other clinicians on your team, so progress carries across your whole plan of care.
- Feeling low, anxious or overwhelmed more days than not
- Navigating a recent trauma, grief or major life change
- Struggling with sleep, focus, mood or relationships
- Ready for a structured therapy plan, not just a chat

How we work with psychology.
A consistent, clinically-grounded structure that respects your time and makes progress measurable.
Step 1: Matched to presentation, not availability
Your nurse pairs you with a psychologist whose training and experience fit your goals, not just the next open slot.
Step 2: Care plan first, session plan second
Therapy slots into your overall CareDirect plan so your dietitian, nurse and psychologist are pulling in the same direction.
Step 3: Regular progress reviews
Your psychologist tracks progress using recognised clinical tools at regular intervals. Results inform whether to continue, adjust or transition your care.
Step 4: Secure, Australian-hosted video
Encrypted video sessions hosted on Australian infrastructure. Clinical notes are stored in a secure electronic health record.
Simple, transparent pricing for Psychological Therapy & Counselling
No hidden fees. Where you are eligible, we can help you claim any Medicare rebate that applies to your session.
Medicare rebates may be available with a GP Mental Health Treatment Plan (MHTP), where you meet Medicare requirements. Up to 10 sessions per calendar year may be supported.
Questions about psychological therapy & counselling
The practical things people ask most often before booking.
No referral is required to book. Your nurse-led intake is the only first step. A GP Mental Health Treatment Plan is needed only if you'd like Medicare rebates on your sessions.
Most clients work with a psychologist over 6 to 12 sessions, with progress reviewed every six sessions. Shorter, focused work is often enough; longer-term therapy is available if clinically indicated.
Research suggests telehealth-delivered CBT and related therapies may produce outcomes comparable to in-person therapy for many presentations. Your psychologist will advise if in-person care is a better fit.
Message your nurse and we'll re-match you. No need to start from scratch. All clinicians work to the same care plan and can pick up where you left off.
