You can contact me at matt@matthewbishop.com.au or 0430 622 909.
I see clients by Zoom or phone.
My fee for all services is $150 per session. Sessions are fifty minutes long. People who genuinely cannot afford my fee are welcome to ask about a concession rate. Please note that there is no Medicare rebate (which can be offered by psychologists, but not by counsellors). Payment is by bank deposit. It may be possible for you to claim the counselling as a business expense, or to seek some funding from your employer; please read here for further considerations about this.
It is important to understand that I am a counsellor, and not a psychologist, psychiatrist, or any kind of clinical professional. I do not provide the clinical services that those professionals often provide. You can read more here, and the terms and conditions on my intake form go into further detail.
You are free to see me for a single session, for short-term counselling, or for longer-term work, at a frequency of your choosing - while I am happy to suggest a suitable frequency given your concerns, you will find me always very respectful and encouraging of your autonomy and preferences.
I maintain spots each week for a new client to see me soon. I work Mondays to Thursdays, 11AM - 9PM. If you would like to book a session and are contacting me by email or text, please mention some days and windows of time that work for you, and I will suggest a specific time. New clients fill out a brief intake form which is emailed to them, and Zoom clients receive a link on the morning of the booking.
When it comes to Existential Therapy (i.e. therapy which includes psychological work) I work only with adults, 18 years old and above. However, when it comes to Philosophical Counselling, I will also see minors - emotionally mature adolescents, insofar as they willing desire the counselling - on the understanding that we are working on life skills, the cultivation wisdom, and development of the virtues, and so on, and that we are not doing any kind of psychological therapy which should be sought elsewhere. (Simply, I choose not to deal with the various complexities and headaches of providing psychological therapy to minors.)
Please note that unfortunately I cannot see clients within the USA or Canada, due to insurance limitations.
