What are your fees?

Counselling and Autism Services incur a fee of $70 for a 30 to 60 minute session. 
NDIS services are charged at $70 for a 30 to 60 minute session.
If you have a  Pensioner Concession Card, Health Care Card or are under 25 years of age a fee of $45 for a 30 to 60 minute session will be charged if you are not an NDIS client.

Piano Tuition rates are $20 for a 30 to 60 minute lesson.

Can I receive a refund from Medicare or a Private Health Fund?

Medicare and Private Health fund rebates are not available. However, my charges should closely align with any Medicare gap payment charged under a GP Care Plan or Mental Health Care Plan. Choosing a non-Medicare service allows you more variety in the type of interventions you can access and also greater privacy regarding the sharing of your Mental Health Information

Are you a registered NDIS Provider?

Currently I am not registered with the NDIS, however if you are self-managed or plan managed you can claim for some of my services.

Alternate payment methods can be negotiated rather than seeing a client struggle financially when needing help. Call Andanté Place and talk with Judith about your situation.

What if I need help but can't afford the fees?

Is Counselling Confidential?

All information discussed in counselling sessions is confidential, except in the following circumstances:

 

  • There is risk to your safety, or the safety of another person

  • Our counselling notes are subpoenaed by a Court

  • You have provided us with permission to speak to another person or organisation about your circumstances

What are your Qualifications?

I have a Diploma of Counselling completed with Estrada College and a Graduate Certificate in Disability Studies completed with Flinders University SA. I am currently studying a Masters of Autism Studies.

What if I have a complaint about your services?

If you have a complaint about my services or the way in which I treat you, please contact the Australian Counselling Association with which I am registered.
