Understanding the Fees 

Healing Path Psychology is a private billing practice. This means that you are choosing to invest in your well-being. This is an emotional and cognitive investment and a financial investment in the therapeutic relationship with me, Liane, your psychologist.

​

​

My fees reflect my training and experience and allow me to offer you the very best service. Fees are calculated on the cost of running a business, registration, and insurance, as well as maintaining my professional development and learning; we cannot know everything and need to engage in ongoing learning throughout our careers.

​

Investing financially in your therapy often means that you are more likely to invest in the therapeutic process from an emotional and cognitive perspective as well.

​

Psychologists invest in our training, ongoing professional development, and confidential consultations with experienced psychologists or supervisors. To maintain our professional registration, we must complete a specific number of hours in professional development and supervision every year. This enables us to keep up-to-date with new research, to expand and improve our skills, and helps us to remain accountable for the treatment of our clients.

​

Keep in mind that the fee you pay also covers the standard costs of running a business. These include room rental, phone and internet costs, bank and merchant fees, tax, superannuation, and holiday and sick leave.

 

Please note – It is understood that it can sometimes be difficult to afford the gap. When there is significant financial difficulty, it is possible to discuss reducing the gap.
