Byron Counselling

We offer counselling sessions to support our community and carers. All sessions are confidential and held by professionally trained counsellors. Each session is for an hour and can be done via phone or Zoom, and in certain circumstances in person. We offer free sessions for those in financial constraints, and move to sliding scale sessions from $30 to $70 for those with more capacity to pay for this service.

For further enquires please contact Margie on 0403 898 452 and we will follow up to organise a session time with you.
