The Red Couch
Counselling & Psychology Clinic
Our current response to the Covid-19 outbreak
To all our valued clients
Over the past few weeks, we have been very proactive and monitoring the situation closely in response to the recent outbreak of coronavirus. The safety of our clients and clinicians is always front of mind for us.
We have suspended ALL face-to-face consultations and are currently only providing consultations via Telehealth video conferencing. Please check your appointment confirmation emails and related email communication from your psychologist regarding current billing arrangements, Medicare rebates, and possible support from your private health fund as this may be subject to change as further information from the government becomes available.
We will monitor the situation closely and ask for your understanding and assistance if changes need to be made to scheduled appointments due to this situation at short notice. We have the interest of everyone's health and safety as our foremost concern.
Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you and stay safe.

Why The Red Couch Counselling & Psychology Clinic?
Red is commonly associated with emotions and has cultural significance for many cultures. It also stands for brightness, freshness, and the new.
As we are dedicated to incorporating the latest treatments and research findings into our clinical practice this is a very significant symbol for us.
A couch provides comfort and support after the tiring challenges of the day.
It is a traditional symbol for therapy work.
It provides a space to reflect and recharge, to shift perspective and try on new ideas.
At The Red Couch Counselling & Psychology Clinic you can expect to receive high quality, individualized care and a personalized treatment plan that is developed collaboratively with you to take into account your current symptoms, needs, and experience, your therapy goals, as well as our expert knowledge of evidence-based treatment strategies and the latest therapy-outcome research findings of what is effective in therapy.
Clients have the option to have their counselling session audio-recorded and are provided with a complimentary copy of their therapy session. This allows our clients to review the session in their own time as often as they like, which has been found to improve therapy outcomes dramatically.
