Practical answers for Melbourne clients.

Online, by phone, or in person in Melbourne

Most clients meet Anne online by secure video, which is why the practice serves people across Australia and New Zealand rather than one catchment. Sessions by telephone are available for clients who would rather not be on camera, and in-person appointments in Melbourne can be arranged where that suits the work better — trauma processing and some couples sessions in particular. Ask when you book or enquire.

What online sessions need from you

A private space where you will not be overheard, a device with a camera, headphones, and fifty uninterrupted minutes. Plenty of clients take sessions from a parked car or an empty meeting room; the only thing that genuinely undermines the work is being within earshot of the person you need to talk about. The full detail is on the online counselling page.

Suburb-by-suburb access

Because sessions run online there is no commute from anywhere in greater Melbourne, and the suburb pages set out what that means locally — public transport if you do come in person, parking, and the practical realities of fitting appointments around work in each area. They cover Albert Park, Altona, Carlton, Collingwood, Cremorne, Docklands, Footscray, North Melbourne, Port Melbourne, Richmond, South Melbourne, Yarraville and the northern suburbs.

Before you choose a practitioner

Two guides do most of the deciding work: counsellor, psychologist or psychiatrist explains what each profession can and cannot do, including Medicare, and what counselling costs in Melbourne sets out the real numbers across the market and where this practice sits. If you are a GP or allied health professional, the referrer page states scope and limits plainly.
