 FAQs

    If you're unsure about coverage, feel free to reach out—we're happy to help guide you through the process!

  • Both in-person and online sessions offer the same level of professional support—it's all about what works best for you! In-person sessions provide a dedicated therapy space with face-to-face connection, making it easier to engage through body language and non-verbal cues. On the other hand, online sessions offer flexibility and convenience, allowing you to access support from the comfort of your home or anywhere with a stable internet connection. Whether you prefer the immersive feel of an in-person session or the ease of logging in from your safe space, both options are designed to provide effective, compassionate care tailored to your needs.

  • If you’ve ever thought “I wish I had someone to talk this through with” — therapy is for you. You don’t need a diagnosis or a crisis. Therapy can help whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just want to better understand yourself.

  • Think of it as a conversation in a safe space. Your therapist will listen, ask questions, and gently guide you towards understanding what’s going on beneath the surface. Sometimes you’ll get practical tools, other times it’s just about being heard.

  • There’s no one-size-fits-all. Some people come for a few sessions to work through a specific challenge, while others find ongoing therapy helps them maintain balance and growth. We’ll figure it out together.

  • Nope! You can book directly with us. If you’d like Medicare rebates, you’ll need a Mental Health Care Plan from your GP — but we can help you figure that out.

Testimonials

  • "For the first time, I felt like I didn’t have to explain myself from scratch. Anushka understood my culture, my background, and the little things that usually get overlooked. It felt like a weight off my shoulders just being seen for who I am."

    Feeling Seen

  • "I used to think therapy was just talking, but every session gave me something practical I could actually use in my day-to-day life. The tools helped me manage my anxiety and feel like I have some control again."

    Tools That Work

  • "I came into my first session with Sayaka nervous, expecting judgement. Instead, I found warmth, patience, and a space where I could be messy and real. Having that kind of support has been life-changing."
