A small private practice for women through the long passages of life — perinatal, perimenopause, the years afterwards. Sixty-minute sessions, fortnightly. No waiting room television.
Two ninety-minute formulation sessions. A careful history. A second session by phone the following week, to listen without notes. By session four, an agreed direction and a written plan.
Fortnightly sixty-minute sessions, on Tuesdays or Thursdays. Schema and ACT-based work. Behaviour experiments framed gently. One short letter between sessions, by email.
A six-month review. What has moved, what has not, what is being avoided. A short shift in pace — monthly if it suits, every three weeks if a return is needed.
Most patients reduce to monthly or quarterly over year two. Some pause and return. A standing slot is held for twelve weeks after closure for anyone who needs it.
Mood, sleep, identity changes through pregnancy and after birth. Telehealth and home visits available in the first sixteen weeks where required. Often coordinated with a GP and obstetrician.
The grief and irritability of the perimenopausal transition. The body's quiet rearrangement. Joint work with a GP for medical questions when those arise.
Generalised anxiety, social anxiety, contamination and intrusive-thought subtypes of OCD. CBT and ACT-based, with exposure work approached slowly and never coerced.
For women in law, medicine, consulting and the senior arts. Identity work, boundary work, and the quiet permission to stop performing inside therapy.
BSc Hons (Psychology, Sydney, 2008). DClinPsy (UNSW, 2014). Twelve years in public-sector women's mental-health services across Royal Hospital for Women and St Vincent's outpatient clinic, before opening Hush in 2022.
The practice is deliberately small. Forty patients on the books, no more. Most are seen for twelve to eighteen months.
Medicare rebate $96.65 per session under a Mental Health Treatment Plan. Up to ten visits per calendar year. Private fund rebates vary.
First contact is by a fifteen-minute phone call returned by Dr Marland within two business days. No clinical detail required until the call. New patients usually begin within four weeks.
