Telehealth

Telehealth psychology — evidence-based therapy across Australia.

I provide telehealth sessions to clients across Australia from my practice in Parramatta. Most evidence-based treatments — including ERP for OCD, CBT for anxiety and depression, and trauma-focused CBT — work very well online.

Why telehealth often works better than expected

Some honest framing first:

The work is the same. Evidence-based therapy is structured, conversational, and skills-based — none of which depends on being in the same room.
For some treatments, telehealth has advantages. ERP for OCD works at home, where the OCD actually shows up. Anxiety work involving real-life situations can be done from those situations. Trauma work benefits from being in a familiar, safe environment.
Outcome research backs this up. Telehealth-delivered CBT and ERP have shown outcomes broadly comparable to in-person delivery for the conditions I treat.
Format

How sessions run.

Platform

Sessions run via a secure video platform. I'll send you a link before the session — no app or account required.

What you need

A laptop or phone, a stable internet connection, and a private space where you can speak openly. Headphones help.

Length and structure

Same as in-person — typically 50 minutes, same structure, same between-session work.

If the connection drops

It happens occasionally. We have a phone backup and we'll cover time lost.

Strong fit for telehealth

What works well via telehealth.

OCD and ERP. Often a very good fit online — exposures happen in the environment where OCD is most active.
Anxiety and worry. CBT work translates to telehealth, including behavioural experiments in your real environment.
Depression. Behavioural activation and cognitive work run effectively online.
PTSD and trauma (single-incident). Trauma-focused CBT works well via telehealth for most single-incident presentations.
Stress, burnout and adjustment. Telehealth removes one logistical barrier from a presentation that's often already overloaded.
Funding

Funding sessions.

Medicare. Telehealth sessions are eligible for Medicare rebates with a valid Mental Health Care Plan from your GP, the same as in-person.
WorkCover and CTP. Telehealth is supported under SIRA — see WorkCover and CTP for the referral pathway.
Private health. Rebates depend on your fund and policy — check with your fund directly.
FAQ

Common questions about telehealth.

Can my first session be via telehealth?

Yes. There's no clinical requirement for the first session to be in person, and many clients prefer the lower threshold of starting from home.

Is telehealth as private as in-person therapy?

The platform itself is encrypted. The privacy variable is your end — a quiet space where you can speak openly. I'll talk you through options at session one if it's tricky.

What if I'm interstate?

I'm based in NSW but registered with AHPRA, which is national, so I can see clients anywhere in Australia. Medicare rebates apply nationwide.

Can I switch between telehealth and in-person?

Yes. Many clients do — telehealth for routine sessions, in-person when something specific calls for it, or vice-versa. We plan it together.

What if I don't have a good internet connection?

Video is preferred for telehealth sessions. If technical issues occur, we can troubleshoot or briefly switch to phone where clinically appropriate. For ongoing telehealth therapy, a private space and reasonably stable internet connection are recommended.
