  • Standard fee: $220 + GST for a 55-60 minute session.

  • Couples counselling: $260 for a 55-60 minute session.

Payment is due on the day. You can pay by EFTPOS, card, cash or bank transfer.

Why the First Session is Free

Opening up to another person, even a therapist, can feel like a big step, especially for men. The first session provides a space for you to talk openly, ask questions, and determine if The Counselling Practice is the right fit. It’s a chance to meet face-to-face before making any commitments.

Cancellation Policy

We ask for at least 48 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your session.

  • If you cancel within 48 hours or don’t show up, the full fee will apply.

This policy exists to help you maintain momentum with your sessions and to ensure that other people waiting for a session can utilise the time. It also allows us to keep session fees as accessible as possible.
