Book My Free 30-minute Consultation with Melissiah

I invite you to Take the first step towards healing... Let's connect to discuss your issues, envision your goals, and ensure the right therapeutic fit for your journey.

  • Your free consultation will take place in supportive one-on-one session where we can explore your concerns. I will listen empathetically, without judgment, to gain understanding of your unique symptoms, experiences, and challenges. Most importantly, we will talk about the results you're seeking and the changes you'd like to see, hear, and feel.

  • In our chat, I'll show you how hypnotherapy's distinct perks can kickstart positive changes from your very first session. And feel free to share your thoughts and questions! It's all about making sure my approach fits your style and meets your individual needs.

  • Your consultation will be via Zoom and you can have your camera off if you wish. Afterwards, you can easily book your treatment with a seamless process to initiate your therapy. If you require specialized treatment beyond beyond the scope of my practice, I can refer you to a medical practitioner, psychologist, or community health service.

What you can expect in your consultation:
  • Non-judgmental support and validation for your immediate issues.
  • Clarity on your expectations of my service and the desired results you seek.
  • A thorough grasp of my therapeutic approach.
  • Answers to any questions you may have about the therapeutic process.

*Disclaimer: Please note that I am not a psychologist and the free consultation I offer is not a diagnostic evaluation or therapy session. It is a private and confidential conversation aimed at understanding your current challenges, exploring therapy options, and providing guidance for your mental well-being.

Do i need a mental health plan and do you offer medicare rebates?

A Mental Health Plan allows you to receive a Medicare rebate for psychological treatment provided by a registered psychologist or accredited mental health social worker. A plan provides you with Medicare-subsidised treatment for up to 10 sessions per year. If you are suffering from a psychological condition or illness, a doctor can provide you with a Mental Health Plan and a letter of referral. Even with a plan, however, almost 75% of psychologists (in metropolitan areas) have a waiting list. Some people are waiting up to six months to be seen, although this can be more common with providers who bulk bill. You do not need a Mental Health Plan to see a counsellor or clinical hypnotherapist. Furthermore, treatment by a counsellor or clinical hypnotherapist can be equally effective as the care provided by a psychologist or accredited mental health social worker.
At Barwon Hypnotherapy, we provide an affordable alternative to the Medicare Rebate if you;
  • Are unemployed
  • Are a full-time tertiary student
  • Are a recipient of the old-age or disability pension
  • Have a Mental Health Plan and are encountering delays in seeing a psychologist
If you qualify, the consultation fee per session is capped at $105.60, matching the gap fee after the Medicare rebate.
Importantly, we don't have a long waiting list and we don't place any restriction on the number of sessions per year; you're not confined to just 10. Please let us know about your eligibility when scheduling your free consultation. Additionally, you may be eligible to have your entire treatment costs covered by VOCAT if you are a crime victim.
