COUNSELLING FEE

ACCESSIBLE CARE

Counselling Fees and Sliding Scale

We believe that professional counselling should be accessible to everyone regardless of financial status. To facilitate this, we offer a sliding scale fee structure that allows you to select a rate that best aligns with your current household financial circumstances.

RATE DETERMINATION

A Trust-Based Payment System

Our sliding scale is grounded in mutual trust; there is no requirement to provide proof of income. We simply ask that you choose the tier that honestly reflects your actual financial situation at home.

After Hours Surcharge

Sessions scheduled before 9 am, after 5 pm on weekdays, or any time on Saturdays incur an additional AUD 10 fee for each standard 50-minute session to cover operational costs.

Quarterly Rate Review

Once we agree on a rate, it remains in place for three months. After that, we review your circumstances together to ensure fair access for others who need financial assistance.

Limited Spot Availability

Reduced and Assisted Rate spots are limited to five clients at any one time. If currently full, we maintain a waiting list to ensure everyone has an opportunity for care.
