Sessions & Ages
ALL SESSIONS are private and conducted 1-on-1 via an eTherapist.
We recommend Parent Training to be an additional service to existing counselling therapy with MINDS so that the parent, carer or guardian can receieve proper training without their child being present during the training.
However, if you would like to run a duo session with your child and the eTherapist in addition to their existing one-on-one therapy then please let us know in the form below.
Session Times
Sessions run during the day, nights and on weekends all year long. This includes during school hours, after school and during holidays. Simply select your preferences during registration.
