Frequently Asked Questions
What can I expect?
Joining group therapy might feel a bit daunting at first, and we’d be lying if we said most participants don’t feel a little nervous before starting. That’s completely normal—nerves often come with trying something new!
​
Our program is designed to provide a safe and supportive space where you can connect with others and learn practical skills to help you thrive. Many participants find it to be a cost-effective, efficient way to build psychological strategies—all from the comfort of home.
​
Each group includes 6-10 participants and is a closed group, meaning no new members will join once the program begins.
​
You’ll also receive a beautifully designed Client Workbook, packed with over 100 pages of information, activities, strategies, and space for reflection. It’s yours to keep and revisit whenever you need it.
How do I sign up?
Step 1: When registration is open for our next group, the BOOK NOW tab will appear on our website. Otherwise, please Join the Mailing List (below) so we can keep you informed about when registration opens.
Step 2: When registration opens, go to the BOOK NOW tab to book your pre-group zoom meeting and complete your intake and consent form. The pre-group meeting gives us a chance to get to know you, discuss the group and confirm its a good fit (i.e. confirm suitability and eligibility).
Step 3: After the pre-group meeting, we will send you an invoice to arrange payment (if going ahead with the group). If we're not going ahead for any reason, and you'd like other referral suggestions, just let us know.
Step 4: Once payment is received your spot is confirmed, and we will post you your Client Workbook.
Step 5: Sit back, relax, and wait for the group to start! All information and zoom links etc. will be communicated to you via email. ​​
How do the groups run?
Our program runs online via Zoom for 6 weeks. Sessions occur once per week and are two hours long. Don't worry, we have scheduled breaks throughout!
​
The group is usually run after standard business hours during the week- AEDT/AEST (e.g., Tuesdays, 6:00pm-8:00pm).
Who is the program suited for?
Our program is suited to adults (18+) who are experiencing difficulties associated with ADHD. The program is not suited for individuals in crisis.
​
The program is also suited for anyone living in Australia.
Do I need an official ADHD diagnosis to join?
No, a formal diagnosis is not required. Whether you have a diagnosis, you’re awaiting assessment or exploring ADHD-related challenges, the group can be a valuable opportunity to learn and grow.
How much does the group cost?
The total cost of the 6-week program is $750.00 (equates to $125.00 per session). After your pre-group meeting, full payment is required to secure your place in the group.
​
While Medicare rebates are not currently available for online group therapy, you may be eligible for a rebate through your private health insurance. Please note that arranging these rebates is your responsibility, and we recommend contacting your provider for further information.
Do I need a referral?
No, self-referrals are welcome!
What do I need to participate?
To join the group, you’ll need:
-
Reliable Internet: A stable connection to ensure smooth participation.
-
Zoom Software: Zoom is free to use and can be accessed through your web browser or as a downloadable app.
-
Laptop or Computer: While a tablet or smartphone can work, a laptop or computer is preferred for the best experience.
​
You’ll also need to find a quiet and private space for the sessions. This helps minimise interruptions and ensures confidentiality for all participants.
​
We kindly encourage participants to keep their cameras on during sessions (except during breaks). This helps foster engagement, connection, and a sense of community within the group.
What happens if I miss a session? Are they recorded?
If you know you’ll miss a session, please let us know in advance.
​
The group sessions are not recorded for confidentiality and privacy reasons. While refunds aren't offered for missed sessions, we encourage you to review the content in your workbook and ask questions in the next session!
What if I need to withdraw?
-
14+ days notice before the group commencement date: 50% refund available.
-
Less than 14 days notice or after the group commences: No refunds.
