We are entering the busy season of the year thats for sure! And an important time to remember to take care of your mental and emotional wellbeing. With that in mind, I have a few updates to share with you.
Exciting News Part 1 : Kate Landete Counselling will be opening an extra day!
I will be at Coastal Wellness Cottage every second Monday from 930am – 1pm from the 28th October for face to face, telehealth and phone counselling sessions (as well as my existing days)
Mondays 930am – 1pm (fortnightly)
Tuesdays 930am – 530pm
Wednesdays 930am – 530pm
Thursdays 10am – 6pm
Fridays 10am – 12pm (online only)
Exciting news Part 2 : Have you been to the Wellness Cottage lately and seen the revamp of our counselling space? A super comfy two-seater couch has been added to the room and clients have been loving kicking off their shoes and getting nice and comfy on the couch for their sessions. Or you can stick with the lovely single green armchairs as usual too – whatever you prefer. Our goal is to make this space as welcoming and comfortable as possible for you because we know that starting counselling and coming into a brand new space can be daunting at first.
Exciting news Part 3 : I have been thinking about how the current cost of living and financial pressures create an extra burden on people’s mental health, but at the same time are also becoming a more significant barrier to people seeking support for their mental health.
Taking feedback on board from clients, friends and family I am excited to share some new offerings that I hope will ease the financial burden of accessing counselling and create alternative ways to get help.
– New reduced counselling rates for students and youth
– 30 minute counselling sessions
– Application to be a registered Victims of Crime Counsellor in progress
– Self paced mental health courses are currently being created too
Counselling sessions for youth (under 20 years) and students will be provided at a reduced cost from October onwards.
To help young people and their families with the cost of accessing counselling support I am introducing a new Youth and Student rate.
* Initial sessions $150
* Follow up sessions $130
This will apply to in person, online and phone sessions.
Sessions run for between 50 and 60 minutes.
No referral needed, book in straight away with minimal wait times.
* Book as normal and the reduced fee will be applied at time of payment of your session **
Wanting to connect with a counsellor for support with a quick check in or debrief but don’t need the full hour?
New express counselling sessions will be available from October.
* 30 minute sessions – $75
* For online and phone sessions
Contact Kate directly to book express sessions in as they will not appear on the booking system just yet.
We look forward to welcoming new and existing clients to the practice and are so appreciative of the referrals you send to us. Thank you and remember that your mental health is always a priority.
