Good to know
Frequently asked questions
Is online counselling as effective as in person?
Research consistently shows online counselling is as effective as face-to-face for common concerns like anxiety, stress and low mood. It also makes it easier to stay consistent, which is one of the biggest factors in getting results.
Do I need a referral to see a counsellor?
No referral is needed. Unlike some services, you can book a free welcome session straight away, no GP visit, no Mental Health Care Plan, no waitlist.
How many sessions will I need?
Each person’s needs are different. Some feel significant improvements in a few sessions, while others benefit from longer-term support. Your therapist will work with you to create an approach that fits your goals and review progress regularly.
Is everything I say in therapy confidential?
Yes, confidentiality is a core part of therapy at Resplora. Your information is protected by privacy laws, and only in rare circumstances, such as your safety being at risk, may confidentiality be broken with your wellbeing as the priority.
Can I choose between in-person and online sessions?
Yes, Resplora offers both in-person sessions in a welcoming office and secure online appointments. You can discuss your preference and needs to find the approach that works best for you.
Can I claim a rebate for counselling?
Counselling isn’t covered by Medicare, but some private health funds offer rebates depending on your level of cover and your counsellor’s accreditation. We’ll send a paid invoice and help you check what you can claim.
