What are your wait times like and what times are you available?
Australian EST 9am - 8pm Mon-Friday
8am - 1pm Saturday
We have a limited number of same-day appointments for when the issue just
cannot wait or for when you feel overwhelmed and
need some support. Please phone the clinic if you need
same day support and if any of these times are still availble.
How Much is all of this going to coast me out of pocket? Do you accept mental health care plans?
You pay for your session when you make your booking. If you don't show or you cancel within 24 hours then you still pay for your session. However, we will try to fit you in with another appointment where possible.
​
For non NDIS individuals AUS $65 for a 30 min appointment and $125 for a one hour appointment.
For NDIS we offer a one hour appointment for AUS $155.00
​
We are not able to accept mental health care plans which is why we have kept our fees low. The Australian Government does not allow Australian Registered Counsellors to accept mental health care plans at present. We hope this will change in the future.
​
We will be offering Private Health Care Rebate in the future for Australian residents who hold Private Health Care.
Payment is made prior to your counselling appointment
Our policy is no payment, no session.
why?
because when you book a time, we're giving you that time and someone else can't have it. If you don't show up, someone else misses out on help, and the counsellor doesn't get paid.
Let me see some reviews so that I can see if any of this actually works.
Client Reviews
'I had been trying to explain my ADHD symptoms to my GP for weeks. I reckon I sounded weird because I was trying to describe what I now know as ADHD paralysis. He ended up giving me a script for depression instead.
The tablets didn't work and made me feel sick.
​
I went to see a different GP who knew something about ADHD. I finally got diagnosed through a psychiatrist (which took ages) and was put on the right medication. However once that was done, there was no support. I had heard about The ADHD Clinic through a friend and decided to start learning about it and what I could do next. I went to see The ADHD Clinic - well, by Telehealth which was just as good as being in person cause I had my doubts about counselling through a screen.
Once you connect via the internet though, it's like sitting opposite someone.
​
However, it took thirty years for someone to finally listen to me and I'm like huh? Why was it so hard for a GP to understand that this was what I now know as typical female ADHD? Maybe they need to make longer appointments at GP centres so that they can listen to what people are actually trying to say? Maybe they need to train GPs better.
​
I'm now starting again at 63 and no-one has the right to say 'why would you even bother at your age?' I'm perfectly capable at 63 and want to make my last few decades my best, that's why. I am finally properly medicated and starting to learn about how I can live with my ADHD from a really caring and kind human being. The ADHD Clinic has been incredibly supportive and patient with me which is what I've needed. Space to tell my story. Juliette is also like really clever and has designed all this new stuff which actually helps ADHD.
Thank you Juliette for starting this clinic and I hope lots of people hear about it because your method works and it's very much needed out here in the real world where we are all just trying to find our way. Sandra WA.
Client Review
"Juliette was very easy to talk to and made me have to pause a few times and really think about the situation in a different light. Juliette is very caring and her love and knowledge shines through. " Amelia. Qld.

Fresh late ADHD diagnosis, middle aged male – two teens & a new baby, self-employed & drowning! Any takers? I am blessed to have explored several counselling sessions with Juliette. Being medicated, explored psychology sessions elsewhere; ultimately feeling unsupported, relationship on the rocks & suffering very low self-worth.
​
“The genuine care, compassion, support, knowledge & insight; has led to self-growth & value in many areas – Absolutely Amazing & Wonderful”.
​
Holding a complex assortment of experiences, beliefs, feelings, unidentified traumas, physically experiencing major stress symptoms & complete overwhelm; I feel Juliette had a difficult task ahead. The exploration took many changes in directions, often at a rapid pace. Juliette created a caring, safe & supporting environment I have not quite experienced before. She allowed me to express, be present and jump between topics in my ADHD rambling way often at great speed! A truly gifted expert supported this, whilst in reflection she steered, paused & resolved beautifully.
​
“I have to remind you, I have ADHD;” Juliette expressed once; I chuckle to myself recalling. Any counsellor would have been completely overwhelmed at that point; I feel her ADHD gave her the ability & insights to make it further than anyone else could. Juliette has ADHD. Juliette knows the beautiful gifts it provides and respects the areas of ADHD that need a little extra consideration & care. She really empowers ADHD with a strength that is simply special. Thankfully I have been able to hold some of this feeling since our sessions; this feeling is priceless to me. I desire to embrace ADHD the way Juliette does.
​
This gift combined with extensive knowledge; amazing people skills & genuine care makes an amazing practitioner that I hope anyone struggling with ADHD is able to experience.
​
Over several sessions we explored trauma, overwhelm, adrenal response, stress, family needs and effective staging / correct communication, making time / space / present / grounding, being me / respecting & being respected (I am who I am, who I was), holding / being with emotions.
​
I have a long way to go, however the comfort, hope, curiosity and self-empowerment I’ve gained is life changing.
​
Juliette - you are amazing, authentic & truly on your correct path. Thank You so much and I look forward to working more with you in the future.
Client Review
The main issue I wanted to discuss, was the clashing emotions I was experiencing at having received my diagnosis at 50 years of age. While grateful to finally receive a diagnosis on the one hand, I was also angry at having been missed and misdiagnosed my entire life. Juliette helped me to process these difficult feelings in a safe and nurturing environment, and even helped me arrive at an epiphany that has assisted me in removing negative self-beliefs.
I have to add, knowing that Juliette has ADHD herself, was the most important aspect in my decision to go ahead with the sessions. ADHD symptoms can often be difficult to articulate, and just knowing that she has the advantage of lived experience, removed any trepidation I may have had otherwise.
Juliette’s strength lies in her ability to make you feel truly heard, with the complete absence of unbalanced power dynamics. I am a firm believer in the efficacy of collaborative care, which Juliette delivers in spades. I have seen several therapists over the years, and Juliette was definitely one of the best.
Her clients will be extremely lucky to have her.
We are committed to providing you with the best possible care.

'Juliette got us talking again in a positive way, instead of talking 'at' each other. We're moving forward in the right direction because to be honest? I couldn't see a future with my partner the way things were going.'
Client Review
"I found it very easy to talk to Juliette about personal things and although I had done what I consider to be a huge amount of work on myself, with the help of 6 different professionals, from psychiatrists to counsellors, she was able to show me a new method of neural plasticity, which I'll be adding to my arsenal of helpful methods."
