Groups are facilitated by experienced psychologists and are offered at a lower cost than individual therapy. Group work is informed by evidence-based approaches shown to support psychological wellbeing.
Groups provide the opportunity to learn and practice new behaviours in a safe and confidential place with support and constructive feedback and from an experienced group psychologist.
Most of our groups are held online with 6 to 8 participants. No surnames appear on the screen to enhance confidentiality. People with similar issues meet for one hour a week over several weeks. Extended sessions are available if the group wants to continue.
Regularly talking and listening to others helps put your problems in perspective. Group participants often find it helpful to hear from others facing similar challenges.

Please note Medicare provides 10 group rebates per calendar year in addition to the 10 counselling rebates if you have a current Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) and in an eligible telehealth area.
