Telehealth Australia wide · No GP referral · Trauma-informed
Trauma counselling is our focus. 50 minutes by Zoom for $49.95, anywhere in Australia. No GP referral needed. Book online today.
The Australian Trauma Education Centre is built around trauma. We are a trauma training provider, including trauma-sensitive yoga (TCTSY), and all of our counselling is trauma-informed. We put safety, choice, collaboration and clear expectations first, and we go at your pace. You do not need to have it all worked out before your first session.
Sessions are with a supervised student counsellor, completing their counselling training at the Cairnmillar Institute. All sessions are supervised onsite by our lead counsellor. You can choose who you see in the booking calendar, or take the first available time. ATEC is led by our lead counsellor, an ACA registered counsellor and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapist.
No. You do not need a GP referral or a mental health care plan. If you have been diagnosed with PTSD or think you may have it, please also talk to your GP about treatment options.

No. You decide what you share, and when. Many people start with how things are for them now, rather than what happened. In your first session your counsellor will ask a few questions about your safety, and you can always say you would rather not go into details.
