Frequently Asked Questions
How long is a counselling session in Adelaide?
On TYHO, counselling sessions in Adelaide last for 1 hour. This gives you enough time to talk through what you are experiencing and work on your goals at a comfortable pace.
What services do counsellors in Adelaide provide?
Counsellors in Adelaide provide a wide range of services. These include:
- Individual counselling
- Couples counselling
- Marriage counselling
- Family counselling
- Child counselling
If you are dealing with issues such as depression, stress related to work, addiction, anxiety, or general emotional difficulties, individual counselling can help you understand your feelings.
If you are in a relationship and want support with issues like poor communication, trust problems, or adjusting to big changes, such as moving in together, a couples counsellor may be helpful.
Marriage counselling is for couples who are already married and need support with challenges in their marriage. This may include a lack of intimacy, infidelity, ongoing disagreements, unmet expectations, or emotional distance.
Family counselling focuses on improving the relationships between family members. The counsellor speaks with everyone involved, understands the family’s patterns and dynamics, and then offers guidance to help the family communicate and support each other in healthier ways.
Are sessions with an Adelaide counsellor private and confidential?
TYHO counsellors follow strict professional and ethical standards to protect your privacy. Your personal information and what you share in sessions are kept confidential.
There are rare situations in which the Adelaide counsellor may be required to share certain information. For example, disclosure could occur if you or someone you know is in danger. In these cases, the counsellor may need to inform family members, the police, the courts, or crisis services.
TYHO leaves decisions about sharing session information, such as notes or messages, to the counsellor’s professional judgment. If you have any concerns or questions about confidentiality, you can always talk about them with your counsellor during the first session.
How much does counselling cost in Adelaide?
Counselling sessions in Adelaide start at A$150 on TYHO.
Your sessions include high-quality and personalised support. Your counsellor will also create a therapeutic plan that helps you track your goals, understand the approaches used in session, and stay informed about your progress.
Some counsellors, such as Empathy and Expert Therapists, may charge higher fees. This is usually because of their advanced training, qualifications, and experience working with complex issues. TYHO works hard to keep counselling affordable for everyone.
Can I claim counselling sessions on Medicare?
TYHO is in the process of preparing for Medicare integration to make counselling more accessible. Until that becomes available, you can reduce your costs by purchasing session packages.
