What to expect:

  • Therapy has the potential for people to experience deep and lasting change, healing, and/or growth. However, results are not guaranteed, and the process requires your very active involvement. Therapy requires your own willingness, honesty, and openness in order to experience such transformation.

  • The process of therapy can bring up uncomfortable emotions and memories, this is exactly why I prefer to work with clients on a longer term basis to take the time to create a safe container where we initially focus on resourcing so that you can feel centred, grounded and supported during this process.

  • Deep insight may arise in the therapeutic process which may result in decisions to change aspects of relationships, behaviours, employment, schooling, or housing.

  • Somatic therapy is a modality I use with clients and involves the body and mind connection. It is based on the premise that working directly with the body and the 'felt sense' can be a powerful way to access the unconscious and therefore unresolved trauma, and other challenging patterns, memories, emotions.

Confidentiality:

All information disclosed within sessions are confidential, and by law may not be revealed to anyone without your permission, with the follow exceptions:

  • Duty to protect- If you disclose serious intent to harm yourself or another person, I may be obligated to contact others in an attempt to prevent harm. If you state that you/someone else is physically, sexually, or emotionally abusing or neglecting a child/dependent adult, I may be obligated to report this.

  • Supervision & Consultation- With intention to provide the best treatment, on occasion I may seek supervision or consult with professional colleagues, and anything mentioned will be without names or identifying information.

  • Authorised disclosure to designated third party- You may sign a written release of treatment information to an authorised third party. Or if ordered by court subpoena.

  • Collections- If you default payment, I may assign your account to a collection agency and disclose the amount owed, inclusive dates of service, and any relevant identifying information to that agency. This information may then appear on your credit report. The content of therapy services remains confidential and is not disclosed.

Therapeutic relationship:

I hope that you would feel comfortable discussing any grievances or problems that arise in our work together directly with me. Otherwise, I am happy to set up a meeting with a neutral mediator in an attempt to repair any difficulty you may be experiencing.

Fees:

The fee for an initial 60-minute therapy session is $160, and then $140 a session thereafter. The fee for a 90 minute bodywork session is $160. If you are experiencing any financial hardship or difficulty accessing my services for any reason then please contact me directly via email at wholeness@brontepurcell.com, as I have a 10% off code you can apply.

Cancellations:

In the case that you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment, please give me at least 24 hours advanced notice. You can do this yourself by clicking 'Change/Cancel Appointment' in the email you would have received, or by contacting me directly via email. If you must cancel, you will not be charged for the appointment if you notify me 24 hours in advance. Otherwise you may be charged in full if you do not show or cancel within the 24 hour timeframe.
