Counselling
We offer 1:1 counselling sessions for any woman over the age of 18 years old. Sessions are conducted in person in our peaceful counselling rooms, or over the phone. The sessions are confidential, designed for short-term support, and booked with qualified, passionate and experienced counsellors.
Cost
We gratefully accept a $20 donation for each session, and we are always open to discussion in situations of financial hardship. For non-attendance, or cancellation less than 24 hours prior to the appointment time, a $20 administration fee will be charged.
Referrals & Waiting Times
You can enquire about yourself or a client through our contact form. Our team will then reach out to you, and either place you on our waitlist or book you into a counselling session. Wait times vary, so please enquire with us at the time.
Support and Advocacy
Our Support and Advocacy team can support you in managing the practical aspects of life, including securing accommodation, achieving employment or education goals, accessing Centrelink benefits, and information and referrals to mental health, legal, financial, and alcohol and other drug services and supports.
The service is free, with appointments offered on both a 1:1 or group basis.
‘Be Well’ Mental Health
This program is a holistic, community-based option for making positive changes to your mental health, lifestyle and wellbeing, while connecting with a community of women with the same goal. The individual and group options are facilitated by qualified social workers. Anyone is welcome, although an initial assessment is required.
Individual Support
We can provide 1:1 therapeutic support, referral and advocacy services, to help you improve your mental wellbeing. A qualified social worker will work directly with you to listen to your concerns, support you to create lifestyle changes, suggest information and supply resources that will support with your journey. We can also connect you with other organisations and give you a referral to ensure you receive the support you need.
