Perinatal Non-Directive Counselling is supportive, non-judgmental, confidential and unbiased. Medicare has funded a specific scheme where eligible clients can receive up to three 30min+ support sessions relating to pregnancy and post-partum. 

The purpose of these sessions is not for extensive treatment, but to explore the current concerns, to receive support through ‘talk therapy’ and to provide information about the options and services relevant to these concerns (this may include the suggestion for ongoing psychological therapy). The sessions can be particularly useful for those unsure whether therapy is right for them and their concerns/needs.
