    If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right fit, we are happy to discuss your needs

  • Therapy begins with an initial session to understand your goals, strengths, and current challenges.

    From there we:

    • Develop a shared understanding of what is happening and why

    • Set collaborative and meaningful goals

    • Build practical, personalised strategies

    • Work at a pace that feels safe and supportive

    For children and adolescents, sessions may include a combination of individual time, parent sessions, and collaboration with school where appropriate.

  • The fee for a 50-minute session is $265.

    Therapy can be accessed through several funding pathways:

    Medicare (Mental Health Treatment Plan)
    With a valid plan from your GP, you may be eligible for a rebate of $145.25 per session (for up to 10 sessions per calendar year). The rebate is processed for you after payment, leaving an out-of-pocket cost of $119.75.

    NDIS
    We work with self-managed and plan-managed participants. Standard NDIS rates apply.

    Private fee-paying
    Sessions can also be accessed without a referral.

    If you are unsure which option applies to you, we are very happy to talk this through.

Therapy Services

We provide neuroaffirming therapy for children, teenagers, and adults. Our work is collaborative, respectful, and tailored to each person’s goals, strengths, and way of experiencing the world.

Therapy with Wayfinder focuses on building understanding and self-advocacy, reducing distress and burnout, and supporting regulation rather than compliance. We translate insight into practical, everyday strategies that make a meaningful difference at home, at school, at work, and in relationships.
