Appleyard Therapy

Appleyard Therapy clients will always be treated with respect, kindness and support as they progress towards their therapy goal.

Duck Cottage is purpose built for therapy sessions… a quiet space looking out to the country valley.

Child Clients

Therapy sessions for children aged from 4 to 10 years can be booked after an initial consultation or conversation with a parent or carer. Parents waiting for their child during a session could take a short walk into the Village for a coffee or a stroll through the park. Therapy goals and session updates are not discussed with parents while children are present but happen via email before or after sessions.

• 30min private paying child session (includes an email to parents following invoice payment with session notes)
• 45min NDIS Child Client Session or therapy report (2022/23 NDIS pricing arrangements)
• In school private paying or NDIS support session (following approval from school and classroom teacher)

Parent Counselling

Support sessions are available for parents or carers who would like to talk through current issues of concern. Please speak to the counsellor if there are financial hardship issues which make payment of the full fee difficult. Online Zoom or phone call counselling is also available.

• 1 hr session $120
• NDIS Parent support capacity building counselling (2022/23 NDIS pricing arrangements)

Adult Therapy Sessions

In addition to exploring the issues that have brought individuals to therapy through conversations, often adults can also benefit from spending time creatively exploring issues. This can often begin with conversations but then move to using art, visual resources or sandtray storytelling to allow concepts and feelings to be developed, processed and explored in creative and tactile ways.

• $120 per hour
