Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ

You've got questions and we have the answers.

Do you work with patients outside of Australia, and if so, how?

Yes, we work with soul seekers  across the globe via telehealth. Depending on your tailored program we work out the time duration of your program and unique costs that factor in any logistics of wellness testing and support. This allows us to maintain the same high level of care that we provide our local clients.

Why is the program for six months? What if I think it will take less?

The treatment stage typically involves implementing steps incrementally over several months so that you can make sustainable, effective changes. This time factors in time and space for your neural plasticity, behavioural change and the changes required to support your body back to good health.

What happens in the initial road map half day?

You will be invited to spend half a day with your practitioner with a break in between to really dig into your life story, your goals, struggles and a thorough psychological assessment to piece together a tailored treatment plan for your wellness needs. You will also be asked to complete specific measures to have your onboarding process completed prior to your initial session. Your practitioner will also work out who else will be required to support you on your wellness journey and link you in with our curated team for experts. Your practitioner will then go away and design a tailored wellness plan specific to your goals and needs. You will then have an hour session a few days later to go over next steps.

What are the payment terms?

A deposit of $980 is required upon booking, and the remaining balance ($5820) is to be paid at your initial consultation or paid monthly over six months, with our payment partners.

What can I expect from therapy?

Entering therapy is a courageous step toward healing and personal growth. Yet, it's natural to feel some uncertainty about what the process entails. This blog aims to demystify the therapy experience and provide insights into what you can expect when embarking on your therapeutic journey. Let's explore the key elements of therapy and what you might encounter along the way.

The First Session: Your initial session is typically a "getting to know you" phase. Your therapist will ask questions about your background, your reasons for seeking therapy, and your goals. This is also your opportunity to ask questions and ensure you feel comfortable with the therapist's approach.

Establishing Trust:
Therapy is built on trust and a strong therapeutic alliance. Your therapist is there to support and guide you without judgment. You can expect a safe, confidential space to share your thoughts and emotions.

Goals and Objectives: Together with your therapist, you'll set specific goals for therapy. These objectives will serve as a roadmap for your sessions, helping you focus on what you want to achieve.

Emotional Exploration: Therapy often involves delving into your thoughts and emotions. You may discuss past experiences, traumas, and current challenges. The process can be emotional, but it's an essential part of self-discovery and healing.

Techniques and Strategies: Therapists use various techniques and strategies tailored to your needs. This may include cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, talk therapy, or art therapy. Your therapist will work with you to find the most effective approach.

Homework and Self-Reflection: In some cases, your therapist may suggest homework assignments or self-reflection exercises to help you apply what you've learned in therapy to your daily life.

Progress and Feedback: Therapy is a collaborative process, and you'll regularly discuss your progress and challenges. Honest feedback helps your therapist adapt the approach and tailor it to your evolving needs.

Coping and Resilience: Therapy equips you with coping mechanisms and resilience skills to navigate life's challenges. You'll learn strategies for managing stress, anxiety, and difficult emotions.

Duration: The length of therapy varies from person to person and depends on your specific goals and progress. Some people benefit from short-term therapy, while others may engage in longer-term treatment.

Termination and Closure: When you and your therapist agree that you've achieved your therapy goals, you'll work together on a termination plan. This often involves summarising your progress, discussing future self-care, and preparing for life after therapy.

Therapy is a transformative journey that can lead to self-discovery, healing, and personal growth. While every therapy experience is unique, these general expectations can help you approach therapy with confidence and a sense of what to expect. Remember, the most important aspect of therapy is the partnership between you and your therapist on your path to well-being.
