It is linked with positive changes in the brain and body, improving emotional well-being, mood, and actions for a wide range of common mental health disorders, including PTSD, Depression, and Anxiety.

EMDR is a specialised therapy particularly effective for individuals who have experienced trauma, disturbing memories, or have symptoms like chronic anxiety and disconnection that seem rooted in past experiences. The best way to determine suitability is to book an initial appointment to discuss your history and goals with one of our EMDR Psychologists.

Both are highly trained professionals who provide therapy. In Australia, the main difference is often related to a slight variation in master’s level training and is primarily a Medicare category arrangement for differentiating billing and rebates. All our practitioners are highly trained and focused on providing excellent, evidence-based care.

Wait times vary between practitioners depending on their availability. If you require an urgent appointment, please let our team know. We also maintain a cancellation list and will contact you via text as soon as an earlier time becomes available.

Unfortunately, Medicare does not provide rebates for couple's therapy. However, you may be covered under your private health insurance (we recommend checking with them directly and quoting item number 300 or Y300).

You do not need a referral to make an appointment, but without a referral and a Mental Health Care Plan from your GP, you will not be entitled to a rebate from Medicare.
