Redress Scheme Counselling
Once contact has been made, I can apply to offer up to 20 sessions of fully funded counselling/psychotherapy through the scheme. Sessions can be held weekly or fortnightly and used in whatever way feels most helpful to you. Some participants value an open-ended space to talk through their experiences, while others seek more focused support for specific trauma-related concerns. For many, having a regular, ongoing space for reflection alongside an attentive listener brings a sense of relief amid much uncertainty.
From the Victorian Redress website:
“Redress for Historical Institutional Abuse is for people who experienced physical, emotional or psychological abuse and neglect as children in institutional settings in Victoria before 1990.”
“If you are eligible for Redress, you can access a counselling service, which will:
- include up to 20 sessions.
- be delivered by qualified professionals, such as psychologists, mental health practitioners.
- include counselling, group work,
alternative therapies (limited) and cultural healing for First Peoples.”
