Preparatory Online Course (self-paced): $97
Concrete Steps for Parents is a self-paced program that offers introductory theory and practical strategies that seek to improve or enhance your child's mental fitness. The seven steps included in this course comprise 'psychological first aid'. The course seeks to empower the parent through providing basic theory and grounding strategies that will help you to help your child. It will also provide an introductory framework for individual therapy with a psychologist. We hope you enjoy the program.
​
Standard individual sessions for all clients are 50-55 minutes. Extended sessions are charged pro-rata rate based on the standard sessional rate. Extended sessions may be recommended during treatment to allow sufficient time to apply new skills with the support of a therapist. Following the child clinical interview, we conduct one parallel parent coaching session initially to discuss the treatment plan and also to cover parent management issues around behaviour. In our experience, parent coaching sessions enhance the child's therapeutic outcomes.
​
Assessment Fees costs do vary. Information regarding the cost of an assessment and an individually designed testing format is discussed at the initial consultation. Assessment fees must be settled at the time of the assessment appointment. Reports are emailed 4-6 weeks following the assessment. A 30 minute feedback session can be arranged via telehealth or phone.
​
Sessions held outside of the clinic have a different cost structure. Please don't hesitate to give us a call with any enquiries. School meetings are charged at the ongoing therapy session rate plus travel time.
