I offer a free 15-minute consult booking via Zoom to discuss any questions you may have and how I can support you.
All of my services are competitively priced at the recommended NDIS rate which at July 2023 is $193.99 Per hour. This consists of a 50-minute session and 10 minutes note writing and planning time. I offer session lengths to suit our therapy program and the 10-minute administration cost will remain the same, i.e., 30 minutes session and 10 mins note writing time at a cost of 40-minute session of $128.03. The lengths of your sessions in your individualised therapy program can be designed in our planning meetings.
