How many psychology sessions will I need?

At Still Moving, most people see us for 6 to 10 sessions. We clarify goals early and review progress as we go. If it becomes clear that you would benefit from support beyond this timeframe, your psychologist will discuss this with you openly. Our aim is not to extend therapy unnecessarily, but to ensure you receive the right support.

How many psychology sessions does Medicare cover?

With a valid Mental Health Treatment Plan from your GP, Medicare currently provides rebates for up to 10 sessions per calendar year. Medicare rebates range from approximately $100 to $145 under mental health care plans.

ABOUT

What we do

Our Services

Evidence-based therapy, that’s shaped by you.

    Individual Therapy
    
      One-on-one sessions for the stuff that's hard to carry alone. Low moods,
      big decisions, and old patterns that you're ready to look at properly,
      with a focus on actually shifting something.
    
    ADHD Assessments
    
      A clear diagnostic process for adults wondering if ADHD explains more
      than they've been told. Get plain-language results and a report you can
      use for treatment and workplace adjustments.
    
    Relationship Therapy (Coming Soon)
    
      For partners who want to understand recurring patterns, improve
      communication, and navigate conflict with greater insight and care.

Our Approaches

Our therapists are integrative in their approach and may draw from the following:

    Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) 

Looks at the links between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, and gives you practical tools to shift the ones that aren't working for you.
    
    Brief Solution-Focused Therapy
    
Spends less time on what's wrong and more on what a better version of things looks like, then works backward from there.
  
    Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) 
    
Helps you stop wrestling with difficult thoughts and feelings so you can put that energy into living in line with what actually matters to you.

    Internal Family Systems (IFS)

      Frames your mind as a system of different ‘parts’ and works to get them communicating instead of working against each other.

    Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR)
    
     Uses guided eye movements to help your brain reprocess stuck or distressing memories so they stop running the show.

    Schema Therapy 
    
    Identifies the deep, long-standing patterns formed early in life that keep showing up in your relationships and reactions, and works to rewrite them.
