H-L Therapy

H- L Therapy is a group of experienced, university-qualified mental health therapists in private practice (i.e psychotherapists counsellors, art therapists, accredited mental health social workers, and hypnotherapists).  We offer health and mental health counselling and therapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, and other emotional challenges.  We work with adults of all ages, 18 years plus.

H-L Therapy is an NDIS provider and we offer NDIS services at no direct cost to the clients.  Two of us are fully qualified Mental Health Social Workers, which means that we can offer services that attract Medicare rebates with a maximum out-of-pocket cost to the client of $50 per session. To be eligible for Medicare mental health services a person requires a Mental Health Treatment Plan and referral from their doctor.  Certain services such as hypnotherapy or artistic exploration can not be claimed via Medicare as only focused psychological strategies fulfill the eligibility criteria for Medicare rebates. 

The focused psychological strategies, commonly used by H-L Therapy practitioners include Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance, and Comittment Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness strategies, and relaxation techniques.  We also specialise in meditation, guided visualisation, artistic expressions, art therapy, and clinical hypnotherapy.  The two later are usually provided to privately paying clients. 

In our counselling and therapy sessions, we provide information about how to regulate emotions and how to improve inner strength, confidence, and resilience.  We can also support the clients in improving their skills for interpersonal relationships. We teach people simple yet effective emotional regulation and interpersonal skills so they can regain control, independence, and inner strength, and become better equipped to self-regulate their emotions, skills motivation, and confidence levels. 

Perhaps the best part of being a therapist is to observe people improving and becoming self-reliant, even if this means we are no longer required.  And when that happens, when people become better,  their whole face is transformed, they smile, their skin has a different tone, and they look relaxed and more radiant.  It is a privilege to be able to support people in this transformation.

Alicja Weidner who is the founder and Principal Therapist at H-L Therapy is an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker, an Artist, and a Clinical Hypnotherapist.  She offers mental health counselling, artistic exploration,  hypnotherapy, and workshop training services to both clients and other mental health practitioners.  She specialises in a range of emotional issues such as anxiety, depression, confidence issues, low self-esteem, and trauma.  She also offers a high-quality Stop Smoking Program that addresses not only smoking behaviour but also its underlining causes.

Alicja offers sliding scale packages for privately paying clients, which range between $100 and 160 per individual session, subject to the client's situation and the program duration.
