Counselling

Adolescence can be a time of growth, but also stress and tough emotions. Whether you're facing challenges with self-identity, relationships, or school, you're not alone. Our experienced adolescent counsellors provide a safe space to explore feelings, build resilience, and develop healthy coping strategies. Using evidence-based therapies, we help teens manage emotions and navigate life’s challenges with confidence and balance.

Psychology

Psychological support delves into the underlying issues affecting your mental well-being. We help young people understand the factors influencing emotions, thoughts, and behaviours, using evidence-based techniques to build healthier coping strategies, improve emotional regulation, and strengthen self-awareness. Whether you're managing anxiety, building confidence, or seeking clarity, we're here to help you overcome challenges and develop lasting emotional resilience.

Private Appointments
Clients can make an appointment directly without a GP referral. The private fee is $180.

Referred by GP
If you have been referred by your GP with a Mental Health Treatment Plan, you will be able to claim a Medicare rebate. The gap fee is $80. This will cover part of the cost of a number of sessions in a calendar year. Please ensure your doctor addresses the referral to Coast & Country Primary Care or to one of our psychologists. If you do not already have a Mental Health Treatment Plan and you wish to access this rebate, contact your GP.

Occupational Therapy

Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing a disability, or developing essential life skills, our experienced Occupational Therapist specialises in supporting adolescents facing mental health challenges. We offer tailored therapy to help you improve daily living, school, and social skills, promoting independence, confidence, and overall well-being. Through personalised strategies, we support you in building the skills needed to navigate life’s challenges and achieve your personal goals.
