How We Can Assist
At the Untangled Mind + Body we offer a skilled and evidence-based therapeutic approach to enhancing your psychological wellbeing.
Whether this is your first experience, or you’ve attended therapy before, for some people starting therapy can be nerve wracking and uncomfortable. For others there may be a sense of relief. There may be tears, there could even be a few laughs! Together we can help you learn how your brain works, support you to understand your emotional and behavioural responses, and integrate useful tools and techniques.
Individual Counselling
Here at The Untangled Mind + Body we can help you work through those ‘inner tangles’ to improve your relationship with your thoughts and feelings. We will look to uncover your strengths, connect you with your values, and develop strategies so that you can overcome challenges and enjoy a fulfilling and meaningful life. We want to help you to thrive, rather than just survive.

- Anxiety & Mood Disorders

Online counselling
The Untangled Mind + Body is fully equipped to provide telehealth/online services. We use a platform that is highly secure and confidential, but also easy to use and requires no setup.
Research studies have found the effectiveness of telehealth treatment is equivalent to face to face sessions. Some of the benefits of telehealth include:
- option to attend your session in a comfortable and familiar environment
- provides accessibility for those unable or not ready to attend in person
- for some it can feel less confronting and anxiety-provoking
- reduces external stressors such as traffic, travel, parking, or additional social interactions
Our psychologists hold full registration with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency. Psychologists are bound by a code of ethics established by the Psychology Board of Australia and the Australian Psychological Society. This includes the principle of confidentiality. All information discussed in sessions will remain confidential, except in the following circumstances. Psychologists uphold your safety and are required to disclose information if you or someone else is at immediate risk of harm. Psychologists will also disclose information when there is a legal obligation/or a court order is in place.
FEES & REBATES
Clients are eligible to receive the maximum Medicare rebate when accessing sessions with a valid MHCP under the Better Access to Mental Health Initiative. This initiative entitles you to receive 10 Medicare subsidised sessions per calendar year (1st Jan – 31st Dec). The ten sessions are cumulative, that is they do not ‘reset’ if you change psychologists within the same year.
The Untangled Mind + Body practice fees are below the recommended consultation rate set by the Australian Psychological Society (APS). Please contact the practice to discuss specific consultation fees.
CRISIS & EMERGENCY
The Untangled Mind + Body is not a crisis service. If you are in Australia and need immediate support for your psychological well-being, health or physical safety, please contact Emergency Services on ‘000’, or present to your nearest hospital or emergency department.
There are also a number of online professional services available in times of distress or suicide crises.
