Questions people ask

It means we treat trauma as something that shapes how you see, feel and react over time, not as a single event to talk through. We build stability first, then work carefully and gradually with what needs attention, always with your sense of safety in view.

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing is an evidence-based therapy that works with how distressing memories are stored, rather than relying on talking alone. Many people choose it when discussion has not led to lasting change. Sabrina is fully trained in EMDR.

We talk about what brought you in and what you are hoping for. You set the pace. Most people leave the first session feeling a little lighter, mostly from having said some things out loud.

Online by video for now, available anywhere in Australia. Sabrina is based in Melbourne, and in-person sessions may be offered later.

A one-hour session is $180, paid in full at the time of the session by bank transfer or card. Sessions are private pay. There are no Medicare or private health fund rebates at this time, and no sliding scale.

Two business days notice, please. With less notice, half the session fee applies. Same-day cancellations and missed sessions are charged in full. Saturday appointments need to be changed by the Thursday before.

It depends on what you are working through. Some people come for a season, some for longer. We check in regularly about whether the work is still serving you.

This practice is not an emergency service. If you are in immediate danger or thinking about harming yourself, call 000, or call Lifeline on 13 11 14 at any hour. You can reach out here once you are safe.
