I'm enquiring about a loved one but they're reluctant to meet with a psychologist. What can I do?
I have tried therapy before and it didn’t work so why should I try again?
My health insurance will only cover part of the session cost?
My health insurance has run out or is capped and will not cover any further sessions?
What happens if I need to cancel or rearrange an appointment?
Can my partner/spouse or family member come to my first appointment with me?
How will my personal data be stored and used by The Mindworks?
Family and friends may have become concerned about a loved one's well being or functioning and would very much like to see them have therapy. Ideally, the individual would make contact with us themselves. If they do not wish to do so, you can enquire on their behalf. Psychological understanding and support can be effective for a carer of someone with a difficulty and often a change in approach can indirectly bring about change in the individual concerned.
You as a family member or friend can pass on any concerns you may have regarding your loved one to the psychologist in confidence, but the content of sessions will not be discussed with family members or friends without the express consent of the individual.
