SPECIAL HEALTH AND SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENT
From October 25 2021, face-to-face therapy sessions will be available for clients who have received two doses of an approved Covid-19 vaccine. If you’re not vaccinated, you can still attend therapy online via videoconferencing software or therapy by phone if that is your preference. Please specify your preference to our reception team when booking your appointment by phone, or contact your therapist if booking online.
If you attend in person, please be prepared to observe the following safety measures:
- You must provide your vaccination certificate 48 hours prior to attending – please email it to info@bondipsych.com.au along with your name, therapist’s name and appointment time (if you are attending with your partner, they must also supply their certificate).
- Check in and check out with the QR code provided. If you don’t have a smart phone we will write down your details.
- Wear your mask before and after your session. If you prefer, you can also wear it during. Our therapists may choose to wear a mask during the session also.
- Be mindful of hand hygiene and social distancing.
- Do not attend if you are unwell or have any symptoms such as sore throat, fatigue or flu-like symptoms. In the event that you feel unwell, the 24-hour cancellation fee will not apply.
Our fees remain unchanged. You can find information on our fees and the Medicare rebate here.

New second location at Rose Bay!! Unit 2, 43 Onslow Street, ROSE BAY NSW 2029

Please note: our practitioners do not return phone calls. We’ve found that a phone chat is not adequate to determine our potential for working together. Instead, we invite you to book your first appointment for a thorough conversation about your needs, and how we can help you. It is also not our policy to have contact with clients between sessions – however, our reception team is available for any rescheduling matters.
